Why travel with a Group?
Group Travel
Discover the benefits of group travel with our specially curated packages. Unlike a tailor-made or self-built package, our group packages offer you the best of both worlds. With the guidance and support of a group leader, you can enjoy a range of exciting activities alongside fellow travellers. But don't worry, we understand the importance of flexibility too. That's why our packages also include plenty of "days at leisure," giving you the freedom to spend quality time with your loved ones however you choose.
Group Leader
Rest assured that an experienced group leader will accompany you throughout your journey. With a wealth of knowledge about the local area, our group leader will be your go-to person for practical advice and recommendations on nearby amenities. In the unlikely event that any issues arise, the group leader will be there to promptly resolve them, ensuring that you can enjoy a hassle-free and unforgettable travel experience.
Religious Scholar
We understand that performing Umrah is a deeply spiritual and personal journey, which is why we provide the services of a qualified religious scholar to accompany our group packages. With a wealth of knowledge and expertise, the scholar will offer guidance on Umrah rites and recommended actions, and be available to answer any questions you may have. Whether you're a seasoned traveller or a first-time pilgrim, the scholar will enhance your spiritual experience and provide a deeper understanding of the religious significance of the places you visit. From running commentaries during tours to one-on-one advice, the religious scholar will be on hand to support you every step of the way.
High Speed Railway
We are proud to offer our clients a unique and unparalleled travel experience between Makkah and Madinah. As one of the few companies to include the Haramain High-Speed Railway in our group packages, we're able to offer our clients unparalleled comfort, convenience, and efficiency. With travel times reduced from 5-6 hours to under 2.5 hours, you'll arrive at your destination feeling rested and refreshed. The railway features modern, air-conditioned carriages and state-of-the-art stations, ensuring a seamless and hassle-free journey. Whether you're a seasoned pilgrim or embarking on your first spiritual journey, our inclusion of the Haramain High-Speed Railway is sure to enhance your experience.

At Al-Hidaayah Travel, we believe that every step of your journey should be enriching and meaningful. That's why our group tours include a range of carefully curated experiences, designed to enhance your spiritual journey and deepen your understanding of the holy sites you'll be visiting. These experiences include: • A Historical Walking Tour of the vicinity of Majid al-Haram, accompanied by running commentary from our knowledgeable Religious Scholar. • An Orientation tour of Masjid al-Nabawi, where you'll learn about the mosque's history and significance. • Visits to recommended places of both Historical and Religious significance in Makkah and Madinah, giving you a deeper understanding of the rich cultural heritage of these cities. • Visits to Exhibitions and Museums in both cities, providing a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Islam. Where applicable, entry fees are included in the package. We believe that these experiences will help to make your journey to Makkah and Madinah even more meaningful, and we look forward to sharing them with you.
