Umrah from the UK

With direct flights of around six and a half hours, Umrah from the United Kingdom is straightforward — and we handle everything on the ground so you step off the plane to a driver, a hotel near the Haram and zero hassle.

Flying from the UK

Short, direct, and simple

The UK has one of the largest pilgrim communities outside the Muslim world, and it shows in the flight options: direct services run from London (Heathrow and Gatwick), Manchester and Birmingham to Jeddah and Madinah, with Saudia and British Airways among the carriers. At roughly 6–7 hours, it's a comfortable journey — and with your pickup, hotel and transfers already arranged, you simply land and begin.

Direct-flight ready

Whether you land at Jeddah or Madinah, your driver is waiting at arrivals.

Planning ahead

Planning your Umrah from the UK

British pilgrims are well served by direct and one-stop flights to Saudi Arabia. A little planning before you leave keeps the trip effortless.

Flights

Direct and one-stop services run from London, Manchester and Birmingham to Jeddah and Madinah, making the UK one of the easier gateways for Umrah.

Timing

Half-term and the summer holidays are convenient for families but busier and dearer. Travelling just outside these windows usually means lighter crowds and better rates.

Budget in GBP

We quote clearly in pounds across visa, hotels and transport, so you know your costs before you commit.

Message us on WhatsApp before you fly and we'll have your Umrah visa, a hotel within walking distance of the Haram, and a driver waiting at the airport all confirmed in advance. One team looks after every ride — airport pickup, the Makkah–Madinah transfer and your ziyarat — so you can focus entirely on your worship.
