More Than Just Umrah Packages
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.
Browse the full range on our Umrah packages homepage, or message the team directly on WhatsApp for live availability.
Direct answer: A 7 nights 3 star Umrah package from Stoke-on-Trent costs from £665 per person in 2027, a 10 nights package from £715, a 12 nights package from £825, and a 14 nights package from £895 per person.
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.
Package | Nights split (Makkah / Madinah) | 3 Star from | 4 Star from | 5 Star from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
7 nights Umrah package | 4 / 3 | £665 | £729 | £1,030 |
10 nights Umrah package | 6 / 4 | £715 | £779 | £1,130 |
12 nights Umrah package | 7 / 5 | £825 | £895 | £1,250 |
14 nights Umrah package | 8 / 6 | £895 | £1,059 | £1,369 |
The headline price assumes a quad room. Fewer people in the room means a higher price per head, and this is where most online quotes quietly go wrong.
Room type | Supplement per person |
|---|---|
Quad (4 sharing) | Included in headline price |
Triple (3 sharing) | + £85 |
Twin or double (2 sharing) | + £190 |
Single room | + £395 |
Five things move the number, and nothing else really does:
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.
Based on a family of four booking a 10 nights 3 star package eight months ahead.
Stage | Timing | Amount |
|---|---|---|
Deposit | On booking | £99 per person |
Second instalment | 4 months before departure | 40% of balance |
Third instalment | 2 months before departure | 40% of balance |
Final payment | 45 days before departure | Remaining balance |
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.
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.
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.
Departure airport | Distance from Stoke-on-Trent | Typical drive time | Rail option |
|---|---|---|---|
Manchester (MAN) | 45 miles | 50 to 60 minutes | Direct train from Stoke-on-Trent station, around 55 minutes |
Birmingham (BHX) | 50 miles | 55 to 70 minutes | Direct train via Birmingham New Street, around 60 minutes |
East Midlands (EMA) | 55 miles | 65 minutes | No direct rail link |
London Heathrow (LHR) | 155 miles | 3 hours | Train to Euston then Piccadilly line, around 3 hours |
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Category | Makkah distance from Haram | Madinah distance from Masjid an-Nabawi | Shuttle |
|---|---|---|---|
3 Star | 700 to 1,100 metres | 300 to 600 metres | Yes, 24 hours in Makkah |
4 Star | 300 to 700 metres | 150 to 350 metres | Yes, in Makkah |
5 Star | Under 250 metres, several Haram facing | Under 150 metres | Not needed |
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.
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.
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.
Being straight about exclusions saves arguments later.
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.
Average daytime temperatures below are for Makkah and are a genuinely important planning factor if elderly relatives are travelling.
Month 2027 | Makkah daytime average | Crowd level | Price level |
|---|---|---|---|
January | 30°C | Moderate | Low |
February (Ramadan begins) | 32°C | Very high | Peak |
March (Ramadan ends, Eid) | 35°C | Very high then falling | Peak then low |
April | 38°C | Moderate | Low |
May (Hajj season nears) | 41°C | Restricted | Limited |
June | 43°C | Low | Lowest |
July and August | 43°C | Low, school holiday families only | Moderate |
September | 42°C | Low | Low |
October | 40°C | Rising, half term | Moderate |
November | 35°C | Moderate | Moderate |
December | 31°C | High, school holidays | High |
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.
Ramadan 2027 option | 3 Star from | 4 Star from | 5 Star from |
|---|---|---|---|
First Ashra, 10 nights | £1,179 | £1,449 | £1,979 |
Second Ashra, 10 nights | £1,279 | £1,549 | £2,099 |
Last ten nights (Laylatul Qadr) | £1,879 | £2,179 | £2,679 |
Full Ramadan, 30 nights | £2,749 | £3,199 | £4,149 |
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

From £665 per person for 7 nights in a 3 star hotel, rising to £1,369 for 14 nights in 5 star accommodation. Ramadan departures start from £1,179.
The cheapest option is a 7 nights 3 star package from £665 per person, travelling in June or September and sharing a quad room.
Yes. £99 per person confirms any 2027 package and locks your price. The balance is paid in instalments before departure.
It is per person. A family of four pays £396 to secure the whole booking.
Yes. The balance is spread across agreed instalments with no interest and no credit check. The final payment is due 45 days before you fly.
All prices shown are per person, based on four people sharing a room. Smaller room configurations carry the supplements listed above.
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.
No. Meals, insurance, vaccinations and excess baggage sit outside the package and are clearly listed as exclusions. Nothing else is added after you book.
No. Once the deposit clears, your price is fixed for that booking.
Yes. Groups of twelve or more receive reduced per person rates plus a free coach transfer from Stoke-on-Trent to the departure airport.
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.
Yes. Direct services operate to Jeddah and Madinah, with a flight time of roughly six and a half hours.
Yes, at no extra cost on most departures. Tell us your preference when you book. See our Birmingham Umrah packages for dedicated departures.
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.
Yes, on group departures. Pick-up points are confirmed a week before travel.
Yes, 23kg checked plus hand luggage as standard. Extra allowance can be purchased.
Around six and a half hours direct from Manchester. Connecting routings add four to seven hours.
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.
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.
Yes. Hotel names are confirmed in writing at the quote stage, before any money changes hands.
It depends on the property. Half board and full board upgrades are available and are quoted separately.
Yes, on 5 star bookings, subject to availability and a supplement.
Yes. Quad and connecting room configurations are standard on family bookings so nobody is split across floors.
Yes, if the property has availability. The difference is charged at cost.
Yes. British passport holders travel on a Saudi eVisa or tourist visa, which we process as part of your package at no separate cost.
Usually three to seven working days once we have complete documents. Peak season can extend this, which is another argument for booking early.
The meningococcal ACWY vaccine is mandatory, and the certificate must be dated at least ten days before arrival in Saudi Arabia.
At least six months from your date of travel.
Yes. The Saudi tourist visa permits Umrah, and this is how the vast majority of UK pilgrims now travel.
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.
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.
By autumn 2026 at the latest. The last ten nights sell out furthest in advance because hotel contracts for that window close early.
June is typically the lowest, followed by late March after Eid, then September. The trade-off in June is heat.
No. Umrah is normally suspended around Hajj, expected mid-May 2027, with restrictions running from roughly mid-April to late May.
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.
Six to eight months for standard departures. Twelve months for Ramadan and the last ten nights.
Between two and four hours in normal conditions. Crowds during Ramadan can push it to six or more.
Yes. Wheelchairs and electric carts are available inside the Haram, and we recommend 12 or 14 nights packages so rest days are built in.
Yes. Group departures travel with a leader who explains each ritual on the ground and handles any issues at the hotel.
Yes on 10, 12 and 14 nights packages. It is a £45 per person add-on for 7 nights bookings.
It is not mandatory but it is strongly recommended, particularly for medical cover. We can arrange it.
Yes, subject to flight availability. Extensions are quoted at the fare difference plus additional hotel nights.
Yes, on all bookings that include flights. Your ATOL certificate is issued when the booking is confirmed.
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.
Yes. We handle group bookings for local congregations regularly, including coach transfers, block hotel allocation and a dedicated leader.
We rebook you at no cost and adjust hotel nights accordingly. Our support line is monitored 24 hours a day during travel periods.

Prices shown are per person from rates for 2027 departures, based on four sharing, and are subject to availability at the time of booking. Ramadan and Hajj dates are expected dates and depend on moon sighting.
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.
