About this package

Leicester pilgrims have three sensible starting points. This 4★ comfort package gives 3 nights in Makkah and 4 in Madinah. The 4★ hotels give better rooms for all 7 nights; Emaar Grand is about a 12 minute walk. Seven nights is our shortest stay: enough for Umrah, the ziyarat and a few calm days in Madinah. Getting to the airport from Leicester: By car, East Midlands Airport is around 25 minutes up the M1 and Birmingham Airport about an hour along the M69 and M6. We confirm the airline and times for your 7-night trip in writing.

Staying in Makkah

Emaar Grand is your Makkah base for 3 nights: it is about a 12 minute walk. After the journey from Leicester, rest at Emaar Grand before Umrah if you need to; there is no rush on a 7-night stay.

Staying in Madinah

In Madinah you stay 4 nights at Saja Al Madinah, about a 10 minute walk. Book your Rawdah visit in the Nusuk app as soon as your dates are fixed, as slots go quickly.
