Accommodation

Chosen For Distance, Not For Margin

The single factor that shapes an Umrah trip is how far you walk to the Haram at 3am. We publish the exact distance in metres for every hotel we sell, and we do not describe a twelve-minute walk as central.

  • Verified walking distance published for every hotel
  • Makkah hotels from 200m to 900m from the Haram
  • Madinah hotels facing or adjacent to Masjid an-Nabawi
  • Quad, triple, twin and family room options
  • Female-friendly floors on request in selected properties
  • Inspected by our own ground team

Insurance

Cover Suited To Pilgrimage

Standard travel policies often exclude the specific circumstances of Hajj and Umrah. We help you understand what to check before you buy.

  • Medical cover valid in Saudi Arabia
  • Repatriation cover
  • Cancellation and curtailment
  • Cover for pre-existing conditions where declared
  • Baggage and document loss
  • Policies suitable for elderly travellers

We introduce insurance through an authorised provider and do not underwrite policies ourselves. Our advisors will help you compare cover that suits your circumstances.
