Just like any other foreign travel trip, travelling for umrah requires all of the requisites of travelling internationally to be fulfilled. Let it be getting your visa, planning your trip or budgeting your expenses – everything comes under consideration in this regard. Especially for people travelling through Umrah packages from UK for the first time, the planning can be overwhelming and difficult.
However, there’s no need to worry as we’ve got you covered. Here’s everything you need to know before going on the umrah pilgrimage for the first time.
Plan Carefully
Travelling for umrah can either bring peace for you or could result in a lot of hassles if mismanagement happens. That’s why it is advised to plan very carefully for the trip. In this regard, you can get the professional help of a certified umrah travel agent that can aid you in all of your umrah travel phases.
- First of all, choose an Umrah travel package that best suits your budget and needs.
- It is an intelligent move to go through various travel packages being offered by different umrah travel agents in order to better know the market trends and pricing.
- Never compromise on the quality of services.
- Always hire all-inclusive umrah travel packages. As they take care of it all from your visa documentation to your return home.
Hire a credible travel agent
Remember that only the certified umrah travel agents from the the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and umrah can arrange for your umrah travel and accommodation needs. Therefore, always hire a credible travel agent. In this regard, you can check the company’s travel history, ask for recommendations, validate their legal authorizations and everything else of the sort.
Additionally, when hiring a particular Umrah travel package from an agent, always;
- Get everything in writing.
- Avoid verbal contracts.
- Never make advance payments in cash.
- Ask for any hidden or extra charges not mentioned clearly.
Educate yourself on Umrah and Ihram rules
After you are done with the umrah planning phase and have bought a reliable travel package, take out some time to educate yourself on the rules and regulations regarding the umrah pilgrimage. It consists of all the legalities, dos and don’ts, prohibitions of ihram, proper way of performing the Umrah rituals, etc.
Travel light
We know that travelling for the first time to perform umrah rituals can be confusing in terms of what to pack and what to leave. So, our sincere advice to you is that you should only pack your essentials along. Prominently including;
- Ihram clothes.
- Daily clothes (to wear outside of ihram).
- Comfortable footwear and slippers.
- Necessary electronics.
- Toiletries.
- Medicines.
- Prayer supplies.
- Travel documents.
- Saudi riyals as well as credit/debit cards.
The lesser number of things you take along, the lesser will be the baggage handling issues for you and would help in you being organized throughout your foreign stay.
Get yourself vaccinated
Lastly, before your departure, necessarily administer all the required vaccinations that are specified for your region of travel. Especially for;
- Meningitis.
- Polio.
- Yellow Fever.
- Seasonal Influenza.
The complete list of different vaccination requirements for pilgrims travelling from different regions can be found on the official website of the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah.
So, these are the necessary things to consider for first-time umrah travellers to make their pilgrimage trip memorable and easy going.
