What Affects the Cost of an Umrah Package from the UK?
Each operator sets its own prices. PilgrimCompare shows the price each operator states, so you can compare packages side by side. The main things that change the price are below.
What affects the price
Hotels and distance to the Haram
Hotels closer to the Haram in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah usually cost more. Compare the hotel names and the distances each operator states.
Travel dates
Ramadan, school holidays and other busy periods usually cost more than quieter months. Compare packages for the same dates where you can.
What is included
Check whether flights, visa, transfers and meals are included. A lower headline price can leave out things another package includes.
Room sharing
Prices are usually per person and depend on how many people share a room. Check which room type the price is based on.
Nights in Makkah and Madinah
The total number of nights, and how they are split between the two cities, changes the price. Compare packages with a similar split.
Before you pay
- Confirm the final price, dates and hotels with the operator in writing.
- Ask what the deposit is, when the balance is due, and what the cancellation terms are.
- We check each operator's ATOL number against the CAA register before listing. ATOL protection, where it applies, is provided by the operator. Always check your ATOL Certificate when you pay.
- You pay the operator directly. PilgrimCompare does not receive or hold your payment.
