Umrah season pilgrimage packages are offered at a 25 percent cheaper price than during cooler months
10 Jul 2024
NewsDue to decreased demand, pilgrimage packages for the Umrah season are now being offered at a reduced price. These days, they are around 25% less expensive than what was previously accessible in the winter months.
The Umrah pilgrimage was briefly suspended by the government from May 23 to June 6 to make room for Haj.
In colder months, package prices begin at Dh 1,600 for a bus ticket and Dh 3,200 for an airline ticket.
Pilgrims will have to pay an additional Dh200 for a single entrance visa, which is currently being issued by Saudi officials for Umrah.
July 19th, Muharram 1145 Ah, will mark the beginning of the new Umrah season. Those who wish to carry out the ritual can apply for electronic visas via the Nusuk application.
