Umrah Packages from Bradford

Why Choose Umrah Packages from Bradford?

Bradford is home to one of the UK's largest Muslim communities, and families across West Yorkshire travel to Makkah and Madinah for Umrah each year. Whether it is your first pilgrimage, a trip with elderly parents, or a group booking, the right package removes the guesswork from the start.

Convenient Airport Options

Bradford pilgrims have flexible departure choices through nearby airports. Manchester Airport is the usual starting point, offering direct Saudia flights to Jeddah on selected dates. Leeds Bradford Airport provides connecting routes for travellers who prefer to depart closer to home.

Ideal for Families and Groups

Many Bradford families and community groups travel for Umrah together. A planned package keeps everyone on the same itinerary, with shared or adjoining rooms, coordinated flights and transfers arranged as a single booking rather than several separate ones.

Better Support for Elderly Pilgrims

For older travellers, hotel distance and transport arrangements matter more than the headline price. We help pilgrims choose hotels that suit their mobility needs, with walking distance to the Haram and transfer timings considered before the booking is confirmed.

Transparent Package Information

Before booking, pilgrims receive clear written details covering:

• Hotel names in Makkah and Madinah
• Approx. distance from the Haram
• Flight routing and airline
• Airport and intercity transfers
• Full list of package inclusions

Bradford Umrah packages at a glance

Bradford Umrah packages are priced per person sharing, so a family of four in a quad room pays less per head than a couple in a twin. If you want cheap Umrah packages from Bradford, the 3-star 7-night option at £575 is the lowest we publish, and two of the three 3-star Makkah hotels are within approx. 1.1 km of Masjid al-Haram.

Prices move with airline fares, so treat every figure here as a starting point. Peak periods such as Ramadan and December can cost more, while some autumn and post-Hajj dates may be lower depending on flight and hotel availability.

Which Umrah package should you choose from Bradford?

The right Umrah package from Bradford depends on how close to the Haram you need to be, who is travelling and each pilgrim's mobility needs. A 1 km walk may be manageable for some travellers but unsuitable for others when repeated several times a day. If walking distance matters, prioritise the nearer hotel options.

3-Star Umrah Packages from Bradford

3-star Umrah packages from Bradford start at £575 for 7 nights, £625 for 10 nights and £675 for 14 nights, per person.

These are budget-focused options for pilgrims who want to keep the package price lower. Emaar Al Manar and Emaar Andalusia are approx. 850 m and approx. 1.1 km from Masjid al-Haram on Ibrahim Al Khalil Street. Emaar Afaq Al Sud is furthest at approx. 1.3 km and offers a shuttle service. All three Madinah hotels are within approx. 1 km of Masjid an-Nabawi. Check the latest room type, facilities and any shuttle timetable on your written quote before booking.

4-Star Umrah Packages from Bradford

4-star Umrah packages from Bradford start at £655 for 7 nights, £695 for 10 nights and £745 for 14 nights, per person.

Al Ebaa Hotel is approx. 2 km from Masjid al-Haram, and Voco Makkah, an IHG Hotel, is approx. 1.8 km, so on the 7 and 10-night packages the higher star rating reflects the hotel standard rather than a shorter walk. Depending on your mobility, a taxi or shuttle may be more practical. The 14-night package is closer: Emaar Grand Hotel is approx. 750 m from the Haram and Saja Al Madinah approx. 300 m from Masjid an-Nabawi, making it worth considering if you want shorter walking distances without moving to a 5-star package.

5-Star Umrah Packages from Bradford

5-star Umrah packages from Bradford start at £795 for 7 nights, £865 for 10 nights and £975 for 14 nights, per person.

These are the luxury Umrah packages Bradford pilgrims ask about most, and much of the price difference comes from hotel standard and location. Swissôtel Makkah sits inside the Abraj Al Bait complex, approx. 100 m from Masjid al-Haram, giving one of the shortest walks in this package range. Jumeirah Jabal Omar Makkah is approx. 350 to 500 m away in the Jabal Omar development, and Shaza Makkah approx. 600 m. In Madinah, Al Aqeeq Madinah, Al Haram Hotel by Al Rawda and Frontel Al Harithia are within approx. 600 m of Masjid an-Nabawi. Based on the prices shown on this page, the 5-star options are roughly £200 to £300 more per person than the equivalent 3-star durations.

What's included in a Bradford Umrah package?

Every Bradford Umrah package from Tawaf Travel bundles return flights, both hotels, transfers and Nusuk support into one per-person price. The exclusions are listed too, because that is where cheaper quotes differ.

What's not covered

Read the booking conditions before you pay.

Can you fly directly to Jeddah from Leeds Bradford Airport?

Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA) typically requires a connecting itinerary to Jeddah or Madinah. Manchester Airport (MAN) is around 50 road miles from central Bradford, depending on the route, and offers non-stop Jeddah services on selected dates.

Leeds Bradford Airport

Umrah packages from Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA) normally use a connecting itinerary, with the routing and airline depending on your travel dates. A connection can add several hours each way and may cost more than travelling from Manchester.

Manchester and the Saudia direct

On dates when Saudia operates a non-stop Manchester (MAN) to Jeddah (JED) service, the scheduled flight time is around six and a half hours. One-stop services via hubs such as Istanbul, Doha, Dubai or Abu Dhabi may also be available depending on the season and travel dates.

Leeds Bradford Airport vs Manchester Airport for Umrah

Most Bradford pilgrims choose between two departure airports. Leeds Bradford is closer to home, while Manchester offers direct Saudia flights to Jeddah. The table below compares both so you can weigh travel time against flight convenience.

Landing in Jeddah or Madinah

Most Bradford packages land in Jeddah, approx. 90 km from Makkah, with a road transfer of around half an hour depending on traffic. If you would rather start in Madinah, we can route you into Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz International Airport (MED). From Manchester or Leeds Bradford this will usually involve a connection, although direct UK-Madinah schedules can exist from other UK airports and airline schedules change. Starting in Madinah means you can travel there before entering ihram, then enter ihram at Dhul Hulayfah when departing Madinah for Makkah.

Which Bradford Umrah package suits families, groups and older pilgrims?

The best Umrah package from Bradford depends on your travel needs, including budget, group size, mobility requirements and preferred hotel distance from the Haram.

Families:

• 10-night 4-star packages can offer a balance between comfort, location and value for families travelling from Bradford.
• Families with children may prefer comfortable hotels with easier transport arrangements.

Groups:

• Group Umrah bookings from Bradford and nearby areas such as Keighley and Halifax can include coordinated flights, hotels and transfers.
• A dedicated travel coordinator can help simplify arrangements.

Older pilgrims:

• 4-star and 5-star hotels closer to Masjid al-Haram and Masjid an-Nabawi may provide greater convenience.
• Shorter walking distances and easier access can make the journey more comfortable.

Longer stays:

• 14-night packages allow pilgrims more time for worship, rest and exploring Makkah and Madinah at a relaxed pace.

Mobility support:

• Pilgrims requiring assistance should discuss mobility needs before booking and choose suitable hotel and transport options.

When should you travel for Umrah from Bradford?

Travel demand and pricing vary by date, and the 1448H season calendar puts a hard limit on the spring window.

• September to November: Wider choice of dates outside peak UK school-holiday periods
• December and Ramadan: The busiest windows, so book early and expect higher prices
• Ramadan 1448H: Expected across February and March 2027, subject to moon sighting
• Weather: Summer temperatures in Makkah can exceed 40°C, which may be difficult for children, older pilgrims and anyone with limited heat tolerance; December to February is generally milder, particularly mornings and evenings

Do you need a visa for Umrah from Bradford?

Yes. Every British passport holder needs Saudi entry permission before flying. Most pilgrims travel on the Saudi ETA or the tourist eVisa, and both allow Umrah outside the Hajj season. You apply online, so there is no embassy visit and no need to post your passport away.

Saudi ETA and MenACWY

The Saudi ETA is a digital entry permission from the Saudi authorities. It does not cover Hajj, work or residence, which need separate visas. Your route depends on your nationality, passport and residence status, so non-British passport holders should not assume the same rules. Check GOV.UK guidance, or send us the travellers' details and we will explain which option fits, plus Nusuk guidance for permits and bookings. Umrah pilgrims also need a MenACWY certificate, given at least 10 days before arrival and still in date.

Nusuk and the Rawdah

Nusuk is the Saudi government platform for Umrah. Your permit to pray in the Rawdah inside Masjid an-Nabawi comes through the Nusuk app, and any Umrah permit the Ministry requires on your dates is booked the same way. Rawdah slots are timed, limited and released in advance, with separate times for men and women, so we help you request one as soon as your dates are fixed. That is what Nusuk support means in practice. Our Umrah visa information page has the requirements in full.

More questions Bradford pilgrims ask us

How do I choose the best Umrah package from Bradford?

Start with your dates, then room occupancy, then distance from the mosque, and leave the star rating until last. Fares drive the price, so fix the dates first, decide who shares a room, then take the closest hotel your budget allows.

Can I pay for my Bradford Umrah package in instalments?

Yes. Pay a £49 deposit, then spread the balance across several payments up to the balance due date shown on your booking confirmation. There is no interest and no finance agreement. Tickets are issued in line with the terms on your confirmation.

Can I customise a Bradford Umrah package?

Yes. Nights, hotel tier, departure airport and room occupancy can all be changed, and tiers can be mixed — a 3-star in Makkah with a 5-star in Madinah. Extending 10 nights to 12 or starting in Madinah is routine. Tell us what you want and we reprice it.

How far is Manchester Airport from Bradford for Umrah travel?

Manchester Airport is approximately 45–60 minutes from Bradford by road, making it one of the most popular departure airports for Bradford pilgrims. Many Umrah travel providers can also help arrange airport transfers or recommend suitable travel options.

What happens if my connecting flight is delayed or missed?

If your journey is on one through-ticket, the airline normally arranges onward travel under its ticket conditions and applicable passenger rights, and our team can help while you are at the airport. ATOL protection covers financial failure of flight-inclusive bookings, not delays, so take travel insurance.

What is the best time to book an Umrah package from Bradford?

The best time to book depends on your preferred travel dates and budget. Booking earlier is recommended for popular periods such as Ramadan, December school holidays, and peak seasons because flights and hotels near the Haram become limited. For lower prices and fewer crowds, many pilgrims consider travelling during quieter months.

How much do Umrah packages from Bradford cost?

Umrah packages from Bradford typically start from around £675 per person, depending on the travel month, hotel category, flight availability, room sharing, and duration of stay. Affordable 3-star packages are usually lower priced, while 4-star and 5-star hotels closer to Masjid al-Haram and Masjid an-Nabawi cost more. Ramadan, December holidays, and peak travel periods usually have higher prices due to increased demand.
