Easter Umrah Packages 2026

Easter 2026 falls at almost the perfect time for Umrah. The school break runs from 30 March to 10 April, giving you up to 12 days off. Ramadan will have ended just 10 days earlier around 19 to 20 March. That puts Easter right in the month of Shawwal, the quieter period after Ramadan when crowds thin out, hotel prices come down, and the weather in Saudi Arabia sits at a genuinely comfortable 28 to 34 degrees.

Our Easter Umrah packages start from £459 per person at 3-star for 7 nights. Every package includes return flights, hotel accommodation in Makkah and Madinah, Umrah visa processing, airport transfers, and ground transport between the two holy cities. You book with a £99 deposit and pay the rest in interest-free instalments.

We are Packages Umrah, based at 7 Huxley Avenue, Manchester, M8 0SJ. We are a registered UK company that puts together and sells Umrah packages directly. No middlemen, no marketplace, no inflated prices.

Easter 2026 Dates: What You Need to Know

Here are the key dates for Easter 2026 in the UK.

Good Friday: 3 April 2026

Easter Sunday: 5 April 2026

Easter Monday: 6 April 2026

School Easter Break: 30 March to 10 April 2026 (England and Wales)

Most English and Welsh schools break up on Friday 27 March and return on Monday 13 April. That means your actual travel window stretches from Saturday 28 March to Sunday 12 April. A full 16 days. Even a 14-night Umrah package fits inside that window without touching a single school day.

Scottish and Northern Irish schools may have slightly different dates, so check your local council. But the window is broadly similar across the UK.

Why Easter 2026 Is One of the Best Times for Umrah

It Falls in Shawwal

Ramadan 2026 ends around 19 to 20 March with Eid al-Fitr. That means Easter falls in the month of Shawwal, the 10th month of the Islamic calendar. Shawwal carries its own spiritual significance. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said that whoever fasts Ramadan and follows it with six days of fasting in Shawwal, it is as if they fasted the entire year (Sahih Muslim). Performing Umrah during Shawwal, while maintaining that post-Ramadan spiritual momentum, is a deeply rewarding opportunity.

The Crowds Have Thinned

Ramadan is the busiest period in Makkah and Madinah. Millions of pilgrims compete for hotel rooms, prayer spaces, and spots for Tawaf. By Easter, roughly 10 days after Eid, the rush is over. The Haram is calmer. You can perform Tawaf without being compressed into slow-moving crowds. For families with children and elderly parents, that makes a real practical difference.

Hotel Prices Drop After Ramadan

Hotel rates near Masjid al-Haram spike during Ramadan, especially the last 10 nights. Once Shawwal begins, prices fall back to standard seasonal levels. That is why our Easter packages start from £459 rather than the £549 or higher you would pay during Ramadan itself.

The Weather Is Warm but Not Extreme

Late March and early April in Makkah brings daytime temperatures of 28 to 34 degrees Celsius. That is warm, but nowhere near the 42 to 45 degrees you would face during summer. You can comfortably do Tawaf and Sa’i during the day without the risk of heatstroke. Madinah is a few degrees cooler, particularly in the evenings.

Two Full Weeks Off School

The Easter break is the second-longest school holiday after summer. You get enough time for a relaxed trip without rushing. A 7-night package leaves room for recovery before school starts. A 14-night package lets you take the full break. You choose what works for your family.

3 Star Easter Umrah Packages

Our 3-star Easter Umrah packages are the most popular choice for budget-conscious families. A 7 nights Umrah package during Easter costs from £459 per person. A 10 nights Umrah package is £479. A 12 nights Umrah package is £499. And a 14 nights Umrah package covering most of the Easter break is £549.

The 3-star hotels we use are clean, air-conditioned, and practically located. Most sit within a 10 to 15-minute walk of the Haram, or have a shuttle service running during prayer times. You won’t get a Haram-view room at this level, but you will get a comfortable base that gives you everything you need for a focused Umrah trip.

Compared to what other UK agencies charge for similar Easter packages, our pricing is consistently £20 or more below the market. A lot of providers list 3-star Easter packages at £500 to £600 for 7 nights. We are at £459. Same flights. Same visa service. Same city transfers. Just a better price.

4 Star Easter Umrah Packages

If you want to be closer to the Haram with better room facilities, our 4-star Easter Umrah packages start from £599 per person for 7 nights. Hotels at this level are typically 5 to 10 minutes on foot from Masjid al-Haram in Makkah and a similar distance from Masjid an-Nabawi in Madinah.

Rooms are more spacious, breakfast is often included, and you get more consistent service. For families travelling with elderly parents or young children, the shorter walk to the mosque is often the deciding factor. When you are praying five times a day and potentially going for Tahajjud during the night, every minute on your feet counts.

5 Star Easter Umrah Packages

Our 5-star Easter packages start from £799 per person for 7 nights. These include stays at premium hotels within minutes of the Haram. Expect larger rooms, full buffet meals, concierge service, and Haram-view rooms on request.

Five-star is popular at Easter because families often use this trip as the big holiday of the year. Instead of splitting between a city break and a separate Umrah trip, they combine both into one high-quality experience. If you are going to be there for 10 or 14 nights, the comfort upgrade pays for itself in reduced stress and better rest.

What Is Included in Easter Umrah Packages

Every Easter package we sell includes the same core set of services regardless of star level.

Return Flights

Flights from a major UK airport to Jeddah or Madinah. We fly from London Heathrow, London Gatwick, Manchester, and Birmingham. The departure airport depends on where you live and the best available fare at the time of booking. Both direct and connecting flights are available depending on the airline and date.

Hotel Accommodation

Stays in Makkah and Madinah for the full duration of your package. The standard split is roughly half your nights in each city, but we can adjust this if you want more time in one location. Hotel names are confirmed before you pay your deposit.

Umrah Visa

Complete visa processing for British passport holders and non-UK passport holders living in the UK. You send us your documents and we handle the application. Processing takes 3 to 5 working days once we have everything.

Airport Transfers

Private vehicle transfers from Jeddah or Madinah airport to your hotel on arrival and back to the airport on departure. Plus the intercity transfer between Makkah and Madinah. No public transport, no queuing, no uncertainty.

24/7 UK Support

Our team is available around the clock by phone and WhatsApp. Before your trip, during it, and after you return. We speak English, Urdu, and Punjabi.

How to Plan Your Easter Umrah Trip

When to Fly Out

For a 7-night trip, fly out on Saturday 28 March or Sunday 29 March and return by Saturday 4 April or Sunday 5 April. That uses the first week of the Easter break. For a 14-night package, fly out on Saturday 28 March and return on Saturday 11 April. You are home a full day before most schools reopen on Monday 13 April.

How to Split Your Nights

A common split for a 7-night package is 4 nights in Makkah and 3 nights in Madinah. For 10 nights, many families go 5 and 5. For 14 nights, 7 and 7 gives you a full week in each city. But this is flexible. If your main goal is extended worship at the Haram, you can weight more nights towards Makkah.

What to Pack for Easter Umrah

Late March and early April in Saudi Arabia means warm days and mild evenings. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing for daytime and a light jacket or shawl for air-conditioned interiors and Madinah evenings, where temperatures can dip to 18 to 20 degrees after sunset. Comfortable walking shoes are essential. Bring a personal water bottle and sunscreen.

The Six Days of Shawwal

If you plan to fast the six days of Shawwal during your Easter trip, the timing works well. The first of Shawwal (Eid al-Fitr) falls around 19 to 20 March. Easter starts 30 March, which is approximately the 10th to 12th of Shawwal. You can fast any six days during Shawwal, either consecutively or spread out. Being in Makkah or Madinah while completing these fasts adds an extra layer of spiritual depth to your trip.

Family Easter Umrah Packages

Easter is the most popular holiday for family Umrah after summer. Two full weeks off school, manageable weather, and calmer crowds make it ideal for travelling with children.

We offer child rates for under-12s sharing with parents. Adjoining rooms and family suites can be arranged at most of our partner hotels. If you have a child under 2, cots are available on request at no extra charge.

For families with elderly parents, we can arrange ground-floor rooms, wheelchair assistance at the airport and hotel, and hotels with lift access and shorter walking distances to the Haram. At 4-star and 5-star level, several of our partner hotels have direct covered access to Masjid al-Haram, which removes the walk entirely.

If your children attend different schools with slightly different Easter dates, let us know. We can find a window that works for everyone.

Easter Umrah for Couples and Solo Travellers

Easter isn’t just for families. Couples without children often use the bank holiday weekend (Good Friday to Easter Monday, 3 to 6 April) combined with a few days of annual leave to fit in a 7-night trip. Solo travellers can do the same. Our packages work for any group size from one person upwards.

Double rooms are available at all hotel levels. Single rooms carry a supplement but are available on request. Couples looking for a more intimate experience often prefer our 4 or 5-star options, where the room quality and location make a noticeable difference.

Group and Student Easter Umrah Packages

If you are organising an Easter Umrah trip for a mosque group, Islamic society, or community organisation, we offer dedicated group rates for parties of 10 or more. A group coordinator is assigned to handle logistics, room allocations, and any special requirements.

University students often have longer Easter breaks than schools. If your institution breaks up in mid-March and doesn’t resume until late April, you have a full month to work with. Our £99 deposit and instalment plan make it accessible on any budget. The 3-star 7-night package at £459 is one of the lowest-priced options anywhere in the UK market.
