7. Can I join your Umrah group from a country other than the US?

We learnt that American Citizens need to apply for their Umrah Visa from the US only. So there may be complications to join our group from a country other than the US, knowing that the Visas will be issued very close to the date of the travel.

8. Will women be able to travel to Saudi Arabia without a Mahram (male guardian)?

Saudi regulations state that any lady over the age of forty-five (45) may travel without a Mahram with an organized group, provided she submits a letter of no objection from her husband, son or brother authorizing her to travel for Umrah with the named group. This letter should be notarized.  Women under the age of 45 need to travel with a Mahram.

9. I am interested in going with you for just a few days, can I customize your package?

Unfortunately we won't be able to accommodate customized packages. We offer just one package which is 12 nights long.

10. I need to visit to my home country after the trip, can I do that?

Yes a separate arrangement with our travel agent can be made if visitation to more countries will be required after the Umrah program is completed.
