July Umrah Packages from UKFree written quoteflight, hotels and the total, before you pay
July 2027 falls in Safar 1449, which is expected to begin on about 5 July. Scottish schools are already off by then, and most English schools break up in the third or fourth week of July. Our July packages run 7 to 14 nights with 3★ to 5★ hotels, flights and the Umrah visa, quoted in writing for your exact dates.
July is when the UK summer break begins, so the month splits in two: the first half is quieter, and the last week fills with families from England and Wales. It is also one of the hottest months in Makkah and Madinah. This page explains the school dates, how to manage the heat, which weeks are busiest and why July is priced on request.

Umrah as the UK summer holidays begin, with hotels and timings chosen for the July heat.
Scottish schools usually break up in late June, so Scottish families can travel from the first days of July. Most schools in England break up in the third or fourth week of July, and Welsh and Northern Irish calendars differ again. Check your own school's dates and send them with your enquiry.
Because so many families leave in the last week of July, flights from Heathrow, Manchester and Birmingham tend to climb as the holiday approaches. Enquiring early gives us more choice of airline and hotel.
Safar 1449 is expected to begin on about 5 July 2027. There are no major Islamic festivals in July, which keeps the Haram calmer than in Ramadan or the days around Eid, though summer visitors from many countries make it busier than winter.
Makkah's average highs in July are around 43 to 44°C, with warm nights. Plan tawaf and sa'i for after Isha or before Fajr, rest in the afternoon and drink water often. A hotel close to the Haram matters more in July than at almost any other time, especially for children and older relatives.
Our Umrah packing list covers light clothing, sun protection and what to keep in your day bag.
Early July is usually calmer than August, while the end of July overlaps with the first week of the English school holiday. If you can travel in the first half of the month, you will usually find more hotel choice. Compare with our August packages and summer holiday packages.
