Will there be guidance during the Hajj Trip?
Yes. No matter which package you choose, a guide will accompany the group. At the same time we advise that you are fully aware of the Hajj or Umrah rituals prior to departure, according to your specific beliefs or sect, as
we take no responsibility for this.
Types of Hajj?
There are three ways of performing the Hajj
- Hajj al-Tamattu
- Hajj al-Ifrad
- Hajj al-Qiran
The Hajj we perform?
Hajj al-Tamattu or Hajj al-Qiran;. Hajj al-Tamattu involves performing Umrah and then Hajj, with one Ihram for each. This is the most popular choice amongst pilgrims each year.
Hajj al-Qiran involves performing Umrah and Hajj in the same Ihram having made intention for both together upon crossing the Miqat. The reward for this is greater if you’re able to maintain it throughout – speak to family and friends before making your choice.
Money, Currency & Exchange Rate?
The local currency in Saudi Arabia is Saudi Riyals. Exchange rates vary from time to time so should be checked prior to travel. Current rates are between 4 & 5 riyals.
Visa and MasterCard are accepted at ATMS for withdrawals also.
The amount of money one should carry does vary from one person to another.
Medical Emergency or illness?
