First Umrah and it went so smoothly

“This was our first Umrah and the Al Furqan team handled everything — visa, flights from Manchester, hotels and all transport. Any question we had on WhatsApp was answered within minutes, even late at night. Our Makkah hotel was a short walk from the Haram. We will be booking again, InshaAllah.”

Extraordinary service and attention to detail

“I called about a 4 star package and the advisor took time to understand exactly what our family needed, then came back with three clear options and no pressure. Everything promised was delivered on time. Genuinely felt we were in safe hands from booking to landing back in the UK.”

Flawless Jeddah and Makkah transport

Frequently Asked Questions

Planning & Booking Your Journey

What is typically included in an Al Furqan Travels Umrah package?

Our all-inclusive packages generally cover return flights from major UK airports, ATOL-protected bookings, hotel accommodation near the Haram, ground transportation in Saudi Arabia, and expert religious guidance.

Is my money safe when I book with Al Furqan Travels?

Yes. We are fully ATOL protected and IATA-certified, meaning your investment is legally protected against unforeseen circumstances.

When is the best time to book an Umrah package from the UK?

For the best value and milder weather we recommend the October to March period. However, we offer tailored packages year-round to suit your schedule.

Can I customise my Hajj or Umrah package?

Absolutely. Our team can customise hotels, flight dates and room types to meet your specific budget and comfort requirements.

How much does a typical Umrah trip cost from the UK?

Costs vary by season and luxury level, but we pride ourselves on transparency with no hidden fees. Prices range from budget-friendly options to premium luxury experiences.

Visas, Rules & Eligibility

Does a UK passport holder need to apply for a visa in advance?

UK citizens can often apply for an eVisa or get a visa on arrival. Rules change frequently, so we handle the entire application process for you to ensure zero errors.

Are there any age restrictions for performing Umrah?

There are currently no strict upper age limits, but children must be accompanied by a guardian. We stay updated on the latest Saudi Ministry of Hajj & Umrah regulations.

Can a woman travel for Umrah alone or does she need a Mahram?

Under current Saudi regulations women are permitted to perform Umrah without a Mahram. We provide safe, group-based environments for sisters travelling solo.

What health requirements or vaccinations are needed?

Generally, Meningococcal Meningitis (ACWY) vaccination is mandatory. We provide a full checklist of required documents and health certificates upon booking.

Can I perform Umrah on a UK tourist or business visa?

Yes, Umrah can now be performed on various visa types including the 1-year multiple-entry tourist visa, which we can help you secure.

Travel Logistics & On-Ground Experience

How do I transport Zamzam water back to the UK?

Most airlines allow one 5-litre bottle of Zamzam per pilgrim as checked luggage. We ensure you receive the officially sealed bottles required for air travel.

Is it possible to perform Umrah over a weekend and visit both Holy Cities?

It is possible using the Haramain high-speed rail, but we recommend at least 7 nights so you can worship without rushing between cities.

Which airlines do you fly with?

We work with top-tier carriers including Saudia, British Airways, Oman Air, Qatar Airways and Emirates, departing from Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester and Birmingham.
