For many Muslims, performing Umrah is a lifelong dream — but the rising cost of flights, hotels, and visas often makes it feel out of reach.
Yet here’s the part most pilgrims never hear:

👉 There ARE legitimate, halal, and realistic ways to make Umrah significantly more affordable — or even plan every detail of your journey without paying any consultation fees — if you know where to begin.

This is exactly why this website was created.

At Almazarat Travel, our team helps thousands of pilgrims every year plan Umrah with zero consultation cost. We offer free guidance to anyone who needs help:

comparing hotels
building a personalized itinerary
choosing the right travel season
understanding Saudi regulations
estimating a realistic budget

We believe that every pilgrim deserves clarity, support, and trustworthy information — without needing to pay for simple advice.

Because:

Knowledge should be free
Consultation should be accessible
Planning Umrah should never feel confusing
And your spiritual journey should NOT depend on your budget

This guide — like every resource on our website — was created to help you plan Umrah with confidence, ease, and the right information from the very beginning.

1. Use Free Umrah Consultation (Your Biggest Money Saver)

Most people think they must pay an agency or consultant to help plan their trip. But that’s no longer true.

We provide 100% free Umrah consultation, which means you get:

hotel recommendations (according to your budget)
verified walking distances
itinerary planning
visa information
flight tips
budgeting guidance
safety tips
season-based advice

No fees. No hidden charges. No obligation to book anything. Not even need to register.

Just honest help.

Why this saves you money

Most agencies charge for planning or “service fees,” adding $50–$300 to the total cost.
We remove that barrier completely.

2. Choose the Right Month — The Cheapest Times to Perform Umrah

Not all months cost the same.

The cheapest periods of 2025 include:

Mid-May to Mid-July
Post-Hajj months (Muharram–Safar)
Late November–Mid December

During these periods:

Hotels drop up to 40%
Flights drop up to 30%
The Haram is calmer and cooler
Transport is easier and cheaper

Our team helps you pick the exact week that matches your target budget.

3. Book Flights Smartly (This Is Where Most People Overpay)

Flights are usually the biggest expense. But they don’t have to be.

We help you track:

cheapest airlines from your country
the best route (direct or transit)
flexible city combinations
promo periods (we update daily)
the cheapest day to fly

General rule:

Flying mid-week (Tue–Thu) is almost always cheaper than weekends.

Bonus Tip:

Many pilgrims save money by flying:

to Jeddah instead of Madinah
from alternative airports
with late-night departures

We can calculate the best route for you — for free.

4. Choose Hotels Based on Distance, Not Just Photos

Many hotels online look close, but aren’t. That’s why distance verification is one of the most important free services we offer.

We will tell you:

which hotel is actually in the First Ring
which one requires crossing tunnels
which one has elevators that cause delays
which one is best for families
which one is best for elderly pilgrims
which one offers real Kaaba view rooms

This prevents you from booking overpriced hotels disguised as “near Haram.”

How to choose the right hotel category:

Budget (0.5–1.5 km):
USD $30–$60/night
Good for younger travelers & groups.

Mid-Range (200–500 m):
USD $70–$140/night
Perfect balance of comfort & convenience.

First Ring / Closest to Haram:
USD $150–$400/night
Best for seniors, family, and Kaaba view lovers.

We can match you with the perfect hotel for your needs — without charging a consultation fee.

5. Build a Free Umrah Itinerary (We Do It For You)

Most people don’t know how to structure their Umrah days.

That’s why we prepare a custom itinerary for you:

Tawaf plan
Sa’i steps
Du’a timing
Raudhah guidance
Ziyarah day
Shopping timing
Rest management
Salah strategy inside Haram

This saves you money because:

you avoid paid guides
you avoid booking unnecessary tours
you save time (time = money)

6. Avoid “Package Traps” That Increase Your Cost

Many pilgrims unknowingly choose packages that include:

unnecessary meals
mandatory transportation
hotel upgrades they don’t need
admin fees
inflated prices

We analyze packages for you and tell you:

whether the price is fair
what’s included that you don’t need
what to skip to save money

This alone can reduce your Umrah cost by hundreds of dollars.

7. Learn How to Save Money Inside Makkah & Madinah

Once you arrive, small daily decisions make a big difference.

We teach you:

where to buy affordable meals
how to avoid overpriced shops
where to find cheap SIM cards
which transport to use
how to manage your schedule to avoid crowds

You’d be surprised how many pilgrims overspend once they land. We’ll make sure you don’t.
