Every Tours de Pakistan package includes guided Ziyarat — visits to the historic and sacred sites around Makkah and Madinah.
The Grand Mosque, containing the Kaaba and the Black Stone (Hajar al-Aswad).
The stone bearing the footprint of Prophet Ibrahim (AS), inside the Haram precinct.
The blessed well of Bibi Hajar; water has flowed continuously since the time of Prophet Ibrahim.
The Mountain of Mercy — central to Hajj, and a moving visit during Umrah too.
Where the first Quranic revelation descended upon Prophet Muhammad (SAW).
Where Prophet Muhammad (SAW) took shelter during the Hijra journey to Madinah.
The Prophet's Mosque — the second holiest site in Islam. Visiting is strongly recommended Sunnah.
The sacred garden between the Prophet's house and his minbar, inside Masjid al-Nabawi.
The blessed cemetery where many Companions and family of the Prophet (SAW) are buried.
The first mosque built in Islam — praying two rakaat here equals the reward of an Umrah.

Site of the Battle of Uhud and the graves of its martyrs.
The Islamic lunar calendar shifts each Gregorian year — confirm exact dates with us when booking.
best Spiritual
Reward of Umrah in Ramadan is described as equivalent to Hajj. Extremely crowded — book 6 months ahead. Premium accommodation essential.
Excellent
Months before Ramadan —moderate crowds, full religious atmosphere, good hotel availability.
Islamic New Year — quieter than Ramadan, spiritually significant, ideal for elderly and families.
Practical
Rising temperatures (25–40°C). Less crowded. Early morning visits recommended for comfort.
Hajj season. Makkah is at maximum capacity. Umrah is not recommended during this period unless performing Hajj.
Saudi Umrah visas for Pakistani passport holders are typically processed in 5–7 working days when submitted through a licensed operator (up to 10 days during peak Ramadan demand). Tours de Pakistan submits all documentation on your behalf. We recommend applying at least 4 weeks before your travel date.
Yes. Dual nationals (e.g., British-Pakistani, American-Pakistani) can use either passport for Umrah. We recommend using the passport that is easiest for Saudi visa purposes. Tours de Pakistan advises on the optimal documentation approach for dual nationals.
The Umrah consists of four obligatory rites:
(1) Ihram — entering the state of ritual purity with specific clothing and intention at the Miqat;
(2) Tawaf — seven anti-clockwise circumambulations of the Kaaba;
(3) Sa’i — walking seven times between the hills of Safa and Marwa;
(4) Halq or Taqsir — shaving or cutting the hair to exit Ihram. Our qualified religious guides ensure every pilgrim performs each rite correctly.
Men need two pieces of unstitched white Ihram cloth (available in Pakistan or for purchase in Makkah). Women wear modest abaya and hijab — stitched clothing is permitted. Both should bring comfortable walking shoes for Tawaf and Sa’i, a small backpack for the Haram, and any personal medication in original packaging.
Women under 45 travelling without a mahram (male guardian) are required by Saudi regulations to join an organised group tour rather than travel independently. Tours de Pakistan arranges this routinely — our group departures satisfy this requirement, and our female pilgrims travel with full support throughout.
Yes, there is no minimum age for Umrah. Children travel on their own valid passport. Families frequently bring children and elderly relatives — our Private Family Umrah package is designed specifically for multi-generational groups travelling at a comfortable pace.
Group packages (Economy, Premium, Ramadan) follow a fixed departure date alongside other pilgrims, sharing transport and guide costs — typically more affordable. Private Family Umrah is fully customised to your own dates, hotel choices, and pace, with dedicated transport and a personal guide, at a corresponding price difference.
Cost depends on package tier, hotel distance from Haram, season, and group vs private booking. Economy packages are priced for value-conscious pilgrims; Premium and Ramadan packages cost more due to 5-star, near-Haram accommodation. Contact us with your dates and group size for an exact, itemised quote.
Ramadan is the highest-demand period for Umrah worldwide. We recommend booking at least 6 months in advance to secure near-Haram hotel availability and direct flights, particularly for the last ten nights of Ramadan when demand peaks further.
All packages include return flights, hotel accommodation, Saudi Umrah visa, airport-to-hotel transfers, guided Ziyarat, and a religious guide. Not included: personal shopping, optional Taif day trips (available as an add-on), and travel insurance unless specifically added to your booking.
Yes, extensions can be arranged on Private Family and select group packages, subject to visa validity and hotel availability. Let us know at the time of booking so we can adjust your visa application and flight return date accordingly.
Cancellation terms vary by how far in advance you cancel and whether visa processing or non-refundable flight tickets have already been issued. We share full written terms at the time of booking confirmation so there are no surprises.
Tours de Pakistan books direct flights from Lahore, Islamabad, and Karachi to Jeddah (JED) and Madinah (MED) on PIA, Saudia, Fly Dubai, and Air Arabia, depending on your chosen departure city and dates.
Economy tier hotels are 300–500m from Masjid al-Haram in Makkah. Premium tier hotels are 50–200m from Haram, including tower properties with Kaaba-facing rooms where available. In Madinah, all our partner hotels are within walking distance of Masjid al-Nabawi.
Travel insurance is not automatically included but can be added to any package at the time of booking. We recommend it for all pilgrims, particularly those travelling with elderly family members or during Ramadan when crowd density is highest.
We handle visa processing, flights, hotels, transfers, and your religious guide. You focus entirely on the spiritual experience.
