More Than Just Umrah Packages

Umrah Packages From Stoke-on-Trent 2027

Umrah packages from Stoke-on-Trent for 2027 start from £665 per person for a 7 nights 3 star package. The price covers return flights from Manchester or Birmingham, Umrah visa processing, hotels in Makkah and Madinah, and all airport and intercity transfers. Any 2027 departure can be held with a £99 deposit.

Stoke-on-Trent has no international airport of its own, and for years that has been the single biggest headache for pilgrims from Shelton, Cobridge, Hanley, Normacot and Longton. You either drove yourself to Manchester at three in the morning, or you paid over the odds for a London departure you never wanted. Our 2027 programme is built the other way round. Every package below is priced and timed for the Potteries, using Manchester Airport as the default gateway and Birmingham as the backup, with coach pick-up arranged from Stoke city centre where group numbers allow.

We publish real prices on this page. Not “from” figures that vanish when you call, and not a blank quote form. If you want the short version, scroll to the 2027 price table. If you want to understand what you are actually buying, read on, because the difference between a good Umrah package and a cheap one is almost never the headline number.

All prices below are per person based on four sharing a room, low season departure, and include return economy flights, Umrah visa, both hotels, and ground transport.

What the 2027 price depends on

Five things move the number, and nothing else really does:

  • Month of travel. January, late March, May, June and September are the cheapest windows of 2027. Ramadan and the school holidays are the dearest.
  • Hotel distance from the Haram. A 3 star hotel 900 metres out and a 4 star hotel 200 metres out can be the same building standard. You are paying for the walk.
  • How early you book. Booking six to eight months ahead has been worth roughly £120 to £180 per person on 2026 departures. We expect the same pattern in 2027.
  • Group size. Four adults sharing pay far less each than a couple travelling alone.
  • Airport. Manchester direct usually beats a one stop routing on comfort but not always on price.

Book With Just £99 Deposit

Direct answer: You can confirm any 2027 Umrah package from Stoke-on-Trent with a £99 per person deposit, with the balance paid in instalments before departure.

Most families in Stoke are not sitting on £2,600 in cash for four travellers. The £99 deposit exists so you can lock a fare and a hotel today, at today’s price, and pay for it over the months that follow. Once the deposit clears, your price is fixed. If flight costs rise afterwards, that is our problem, not yours.

How the £99 deposit plan works

Step by step

  1. Choose your travel month and package length.
  2. Send passport photo pages for every traveller.
  3. Pay £99 per person. Your booking reference and price lock are issued the same working day.
  4. Pay the balance in instalments on the schedule below.
  5. Receive e-tickets, hotel vouchers and the visa confirmation around three weeks before you fly.

Instalment dates can be shifted to match your pay dates. Ask when you book rather than after, because the schedule is set against the airline ticketing deadline.

Is the deposit refundable?

The £99 deposit is non-refundable but it is transferable. If your dates change before ticketing, we move it onto the new booking rather than making you start again.

Flying From Stoke-on-Trent: Airports, Times and Transfers

Direct answer: Manchester Airport is the closest international airport to Stoke-on-Trent for Umrah, roughly 45 miles and 55 minutes by road, with Birmingham Airport around 50 miles away.

Stoke sits in a genuinely convenient spot for this pilgrimage, which not everybody realises. You have two major long haul airports inside an hour, and both run to Jeddah and Madinah.

Which airport should you fly from?

Manchester

Our default gateway for Potteries pilgrims. Direct services to Jeddah run at roughly six and a half hours in the air, and Madinah is marginally shorter. Direct matters more than people expect when you are travelling with parents in their seventies or with young children in ihram.

Birmingham

Useful when Manchester fares spike, particularly in the February and October half terms. Birmingham also tends to hold better availability for late bookings inside eight weeks.

One stop routings

Connecting flights through the Gulf or Turkey can save £60 to £110 per person on a 14 nights Umrah package. They add four to seven hours of travel each way. For a 7 nights trip this is rarely worth it. For a 14 nights trip it often is.

Getting to the airport

Coach transfers from Stoke are arranged free of charge on group departures of twelve or more, with pick-up points in Hanley and Shelton. For smaller bookings we can quote a private minibus, or you can use the direct rail service from Stoke-on-Trent station, which drops you inside the terminal at Manchester.

If you live in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Kidsgrove, Stone, Leek or Crewe, the same arrangements apply. Distances barely change.

What Is Included in Our Stoke-on-Trent Umrah Packages

Direct answer: Every package includes return flights, full Umrah visa processing, hotels in both Makkah and Madinah, all airport and intercity transfers, Zamzam water and 24/7 UK based support.

Flights

Return economy tickets with 23kg checked baggage as standard, ticketed from Manchester or Birmingham. Business class upgrades are quoted separately and are usually worth asking about on 12 and 14 nights itineraries where the fare gap narrows.

Hotels in Makkah and Madinah

Hotel names are confirmed in writing at the time of booking, never after payment. Every property we use in Makkah sits within walking distance of Masjid al-Haram or on a continuous shuttle route. In Madinah, our standard 3 star properties are inside the central zone around Masjid an-Nabawi.

Umrah visa

Full visa processing is handled by our team, including the Nusuk registration and permit steps. You send documents, we do the rest. There is no separate visa fee added later.

Ground transport

Airport to hotel, hotel to airport, and the Makkah to Madinah leg. We use air conditioned coaches on group departures and private vehicles for family bookings that request them.

Ziyarat tours

Guided ziyarat in both cities is included on 10, 12 and 14 nights packages, and available as a £45 per person add-on for 7 nights bookings. In Makkah this covers Jabal al-Noor, Jabal Thawr, Mina, Muzdalifah and Arafat. In Madinah it covers Masjid Quba, Masjid al-Qiblatain, the site of the Battle of Uhud and the date markets.

What is not included

Being straight about exclusions saves arguments later.

  • Meals, unless you select a half board hotel
  • Travel insurance, which we strongly recommend and can arrange
  • Vaccinations
  • Excess baggage
  • Personal spending, gifts and Zamzam beyond the allowance
  • Optional private transport upgrades

Best Time to Perform Umrah in 2027

Direct answer: The cheapest months for Umrah in 2027 are January, late March, June and September. Ramadan, which is expected to begin around 7 or 8 February 2027, is the most spiritually rewarding and the most expensive.

Ramadan Umrah packages 2027

Ramadan 1448 is expected to start on or about 7 to 8 February 2027, subject to moon sighting, with Eid al-Fitr falling around 9 March 2027.

The last ten nights sell out first, and by a wide margin. Hotel contracts for that window are typically closed by summer 2026. If you want Laylatul Qadr in the Haram in 2027, treat autumn 2026 as your deadline, not spring 2027. See our full Ramadan Umrah packages page for the ashra by ashra breakdown.

School holiday Umrah from Stoke-on-Trent

Staffordshire term dates matter here. February half term 2027 falls inside Ramadan, which is why that week is the single most requested departure from the Potteries. The Easter break, with Easter Sunday on 28 March 2027, sits just after Eid and is usually excellent value because prices collapse the moment Ramadan ends.

Families travelling with children should look at our family Umrah packages, which use connecting rooms and quad configurations rather than splitting parties across floors.

Dates to avoid in 2027

Umrah visa issuance is normally paused for a period around Hajj. Hajj 1448 is expected in mid-May 2027, which means Umrah travel between roughly mid-April and late May 2027 will be restricted. Do not plan around that window. If you need spring travel, aim for March after Eid or early April.

Choosing Between 7, 10, 12 and 14 Nights

Direct answer: Umrah itself takes only a few hours, so package length is about how much time you want in the two Harams, not about completing the rituals.

7 nights Umrah package

Four nights Makkah, three nights Madinah. This is the workhorse of the UK market and the right choice if you are using annual leave sparingly or travelling for the first time. You will perform Umrah comfortably, pray several days in the Haram, and see the core ziyarat sites in Madinah. It is tight but it is not rushed.

Suits: first timers, working professionals, budget conscious travellers, anyone testing whether they can manage the heat.

10 nights Umrah package

Six nights Makkah, four nights Madinah. The best value on the whole page in our experience, because the per night cost drops sharply against the 7 nights option while the extra days are the ones people actually remember. Ten nights gives you room to perform a second or third Umrah from Masjid Aisha, and enough time in Madinah to attend prayers in Riyad ul-Jannah without the panic.

Suits: most families, second time pilgrims, anyone travelling with parents.

12 nights Umrah package

Seven nights Makkah, five nights Madinah. Chosen most often by pilgrims travelling with elderly relatives, because it builds in rest days. Jet lag, heat and the physical demands of tawaf and sa’i hit harder after seventy. Twelve nights lets you spread the load.

Suits: multi generational family groups, travellers with mobility needs, those wanting a slower pace.

14 nights Umrah package

Eight nights Makkah, six nights Madinah. The full experience. On a fourteen night trip the per night cost is the lowest of any package we sell, and there is time for repeated Umrah, extended ziyarat, and days where the only thing on your schedule is prayer.

Suits: retired pilgrims, those making a once in a lifetime journey, groups from local mosques.

3 Star, 4 Star and 5 Star compared

3 Star Umrah packages

Clean, functional, and located within a manageable walk or a short shuttle ride. Rooms are shared, bathrooms are basic, and a buffet breakfast may or may not be included depending on the property. The overwhelming majority of UK pilgrims travel this way and are perfectly content.

4 Star Umrah packages

The sensible middle. You gain roughly 300 to 400 metres of proximity in Makkah, better lifts, better mattresses and reliable in-house dining. For an extra £64 to £164 per person on most durations, this is the upgrade we recommend most often.

5 Star Umrah packages

Haram facing or near Haram towers, room service, and the sort of comfort that genuinely changes the trip for older travellers. Details are on our 5 star Umrah packages page.

Umrah Visa Requirements for UK Passport Holders in 2027

Direct answer: British passport holders can perform Umrah on a Saudi eVisa or tourist visa, which we process as part of your package. You need a passport valid for at least six months and a meningitis ACWY vaccination certificate.

Documents you need to send us

  • Passport valid for a minimum of six months from your travel date
  • A recent white background photograph for each traveller
  • Meningococcal ACWY vaccination certificate, dated at least ten days before arrival
  • For children, a full birth certificate showing both parents

Vaccinations

The quadrivalent meningococcal ACWY vaccine is mandatory for pilgrims entering Saudi Arabia. Your GP surgery in Stoke-on-Trent can administer it, though many pilgrims find pharmacy travel clinics faster in peak season. Get it done early. Certificates issued fewer than ten days before arrival are not accepted, and this catches people out every single year.

Seasonal flu and polio boosters are recommended rather than required. Check current UK government travel advice close to departure, since requirements do change.

Can women perform Umrah without a mahram?

Yes. Under current Saudi rules, women aged 18 and over can perform Umrah without a male guardian. We run ladies group departures with a female group leader, female designated rooming, and a structured itinerary, which most sisters travelling alone prefer to going solo.

Travelling with children

There is no minimum age for Umrah. Infants under two travel on a lap fare, which is typically 10% of the adult fare plus taxes. Children between two and eleven pay a reduced fare when sharing an existing room. Full details are on our family Umrah packages page.

How to Perform Umrah: A Simple Step by Step Guide

Direct answer: Umrah has four steps. Enter ihram, perform tawaf around the Kaaba seven times, perform sa’i between Safa and Marwa seven times, then cut or shave the hair.

Step one: Ihram

Men wear two unstitched white sheets. Women wear ordinary modest clothing. You enter ihram at the designated miqat, which for pilgrims flying into Jeddah is usually announced in the air, and you make the intention for Umrah and begin the talbiyah.

Step two: Tawaf

Seven circuits of the Kaaba, beginning and ending at the Black Stone corner. The ground floor is busiest. If you are travelling with elderly relatives, the upper levels and the roof are calmer, though each circuit is longer.

Step three: Sa’i

Seven trips between the hills of Safa and Marwa, now enclosed within the mosque. It is roughly 3.5 kilometres in total. Wheelchairs and electric carts are available.

Step four: Halq or Taqsir

Men shave the head completely or trim it. Women cut a fingertip length from their hair. At this point the state of ihram ends and your Umrah is complete.

Our group leaders walk first time pilgrims through every stage on the ground. Nobody is left to work it out from a leaflet.

Packing Checklist for Umrah From the UK

Essentials

  • Ihram sheets, two sets minimum for men
  • Unscented soap, shampoo and toothpaste
  • Comfortable sandals that slip on and off easily
  • A small drawstring bag for shoes inside the Haram
  • Prayer mat, tasbeeh and a pocket dua book
  • Copies of passport, visa and hotel vouchers, kept separately

Often forgotten

  • A UK to Saudi plug adapter, since Saudi uses Type G in most hotels but not all
  • Refillable water bottle
  • Ihram belt with a zip pocket
  • Plasters for blisters, which are the single most common complaint after sa’i
  • A light shawl for over-air-conditioned hotel rooms

Why Pilgrims From Stoke-on-Trent Book With Us

Direct answer: We price transparently, name hotels before payment, take a £99 deposit rather than a large upfront sum, and arrange departures from Manchester and Birmingham rather than pushing Stoke pilgrims to London.

Experience on the ground

Our team has arranged pilgrimage travel for UK departing groups for over a decade, including repeat group bookings for mosques and community organisations across Staffordshire and Cheshire. We know which Makkah hotels genuinely run a shuttle and which ones advertise one. That is not information you can get from a booking engine.

Financial protection

Package bookings that include flights are sold under ATOL protection, and you receive an ATOL certificate as soon as your booking is confirmed. If a supplier fails, your money and your journey are covered. Always ask any agency for their ATOL number in writing before you pay, including ours.

Clear pricing

Everything on this page is a real 2027 rate. We benchmark against the wider UK market and hold our prices below it. Where a competitor charges £685 for a 3 star 7 nights package, we charge £665, and the inclusions are the same or better.

Support in your time zone

Someone answers the phone at 2am UK time when a flight is delayed in Jeddah. Our WhatsApp line is monitored around the clock during travel periods. Start a conversation now.

The cheapest option is a 7 nights 3 star package from £665 per person, travelling in June or September and sharing a quad room.

No. Infants under two travel on a lap fare of roughly 10% of the adult fare. Children aged two to eleven receive a reduced rate when sharing an existing room.

Are there any hidden charges?

No. Meals, insurance, vaccinations and excess baggage sit outside the package and are clearly listed as exclusions. Nothing else is added after you book.

Will the price go up after I pay my deposit?

No. Once the deposit clears, your price is fixed for that booking.

Do you offer group discounts?

Yes. Groups of twelve or more receive reduced per person rates plus a free coach transfer from Stoke-on-Trent to the departure airport.

Flights and travel

Which airport will I fly from?

Manchester by default, since it is the closest long haul airport to Stoke-on-Trent at around 45 miles. Birmingham is used when it offers better fares or availability.

Is there a direct flight to Saudi Arabia from Manchester?

Yes. Direct services operate to Jeddah and Madinah, with a flight time of roughly six and a half hours.

Can I fly from Birmingham instead?

Yes, at no extra cost on most departures. Tell us your preference when you book. See our Birmingham Umrah packages for dedicated departures.

How do I get from Stoke-on-Trent to Manchester Airport?

Direct trains from Stoke-on-Trent station take around 55 minutes. Driving takes 50 to 60 minutes. Group departures of twelve or more include a free coach transfer.

Do you arrange transport from Hanley or Shelton?

Yes, on group departures. Pick-up points are confirmed a week before travel.

Is baggage included?

Yes, 23kg checked plus hand luggage as standard. Extra allowance can be purchased.

How long is the flight to Jeddah?

Around six and a half hours direct from Manchester. Connecting routings add four to seven hours.

Do you fly into Jeddah or Madinah?

Both, depending on the itinerary. Many of our 10 and 14 nights packages fly into Madinah and out of Jeddah, which removes one long coach journey.

Hotels and accommodation

How far are your Makkah hotels from the Haram?

3 star properties sit 700 to 1,100 metres away with a 24 hour shuttle. 4 star are 300 to 700 metres. 5 star are under 250 metres, some Haram facing.

Will I know the hotel name before I pay?

Yes. Hotel names are confirmed in writing at the quote stage, before any money changes hands.

Is breakfast included?

It depends on the property. Half board and full board upgrades are available and are quoted separately.

Can I request a Haram view room?

Yes, on 5 star bookings, subject to availability and a supplement.

Do you offer family rooms?

Yes. Quad and connecting room configurations are standard on family bookings so nobody is split across floors.

Can I upgrade my hotel after booking?

Yes, if the property has availability. The difference is charged at cost.

Visa and documents

Do I need a visa for Umrah as a UK citizen?

Yes. British passport holders travel on a Saudi eVisa or tourist visa, which we process as part of your package at no separate cost.

How long does the Umrah visa take?

Usually three to seven working days once we have complete documents. Peak season can extend this, which is another argument for booking early.

What vaccinations do I need for Umrah?

The meningococcal ACWY vaccine is mandatory, and the certificate must be dated at least ten days before arrival in Saudi Arabia.

How long must my passport be valid?

At least six months from your date of travel.

Can I perform Umrah on a tourist visa?

Yes. The Saudi tourist visa permits Umrah, and this is how the vast majority of UK pilgrims now travel.

Do women need a mahram to perform Umrah?

No. Women aged 18 and over can travel without a male guardian. We run ladies group departures with female leadership for those who prefer it.

Timing and season

When is Ramadan 2027?

Ramadan 1448 is expected to begin around 7 or 8 February 2027 and end with Eid al-Fitr around 9 March 2027, subject to moon sighting.

When should I book Ramadan Umrah for 2027?

By autumn 2026 at the latest. The last ten nights sell out furthest in advance because hotel contracts for that window close early.

What is the cheapest month for Umrah in 2027?

June is typically the lowest, followed by late March after Eid, then September. The trade-off in June is heat.

Can I perform Umrah during Hajj season 2027?

No. Umrah is normally suspended around Hajj, expected mid-May 2027, with restrictions running from roughly mid-April to late May.

Is it too hot for Umrah in summer?

Makkah reaches 43°C in June, July and August. It is manageable if you plan around it, but we usually steer elderly pilgrims towards November to March.

How far in advance should I book?

Six to eight months for standard departures. Twelve months for Ramadan and the last ten nights.

Practical questions

How long does Umrah actually take to perform?

Between two and four hours in normal conditions. Crowds during Ramadan can push it to six or more.

Can elderly parents perform Umrah?

Yes. Wheelchairs and electric carts are available inside the Haram, and we recommend 12 or 14 nights packages so rest days are built in.

Do you provide a guide?

Yes. Group departures travel with a leader who explains each ritual on the ground and handles any issues at the hotel.

Is ziyarat included?

Yes on 10, 12 and 14 nights packages. It is a £45 per person add-on for 7 nights bookings.

Do I need travel insurance?

It is not mandatory but it is strongly recommended, particularly for medical cover. We can arrange it.

Can I extend my stay?

Yes, subject to flight availability. Extensions are quoted at the fare difference plus additional hotel nights.

Are your packages ATOL protected?

Yes, on all bookings that include flights. Your ATOL certificate is issued when the booking is confirmed.

Can I perform Umrah more than once on the same trip?

Yes. Many pilgrims return to the miqat at Masjid Aisha in Makkah to perform additional Umrah, which is one of the strongest arguments for a 10 nights package or longer.

Do you arrange Umrah for mosque groups from Stoke-on-Trent?

Yes. We handle group bookings for local congregations regularly, including coach transfers, block hotel allocation and a dedicated leader.

What happens if my flight is cancelled?

We rebook you at no cost and adjust hotel nights accordingly. Our support line is monitored 24 hours a day during travel periods.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. What is Umrah and who can perform it?

Umrah is a voluntary Islamic pilgrimage to Makkah that can be performed at any time of the year. It is open to all Muslims worldwide, regardless of age or gender, provided women under 45 are accompanied by a Mahram.

Hajj is the compulsory annual pilgrimage performed during the Islamic month of Dhul Hijjah and is one of the Five Pillars of Islam. Umrah is a voluntary pilgrimage that can be performed throughout the year and is often referred to as the “lesser pilgrimage.”

The actual rituals of Umrah — Ihram, Tawaf, Sa’i, and Halq or Taqsir — can be completed in a few hours. However, most pilgrims spend 7 to 14 days in Saudi Arabia to maximise their time in worship at the Haram.

Umrah can be performed throughout the year. However, Ramadan is considered the most spiritually rewarding time, as performing Umrah during this month holds the reward equivalent to Hajj. January to March also offer cooler temperatures and a peaceful atmosphere.

Our Umrah packages typically include return flights from the UK, hotel accommodation in both Makkah and Madinah, airport transfers, Umrah visa processing, and 24/7 customer support. Full details are listed on each individual package page.
