Hajj & Umrah Transport

Transport planned around the pilgrimage

A pilgrimage programme is a chain of movements: arrival at the airport, the transfer to the hotel in Makkah, the journey to Madinah, ziyarah visits and the return. Each one has to run on time for the whole group. We plan the bus movements around your programme so pilgrims can focus on their worship.

Who we work with

• Licensed Umrah companies and agencies.
• Hajj service providers for domestic and international pilgrims.
• Organisations sending groups for Umrah.

Typical movements

• Airport arrivals and departures (for example Jeddah and Madinah) to and from hotels.
• Makkah to Madinah and back.
• Ziyarah tours: see Makkah ziyarah and Madinah ziyarah.
• Transfers between hotels and the Haram.

Vehicles and luggage

• Pilgrim groups: full-size coaches. Tell us the number of suitcases so we can plan the luggage space.
• A family or small group with luggage: a Hyundai Staria or a GMC Yukon.
• Up to four passengers with light luggage: a sedan.

Let us know how many people are travelling and how many bags, including Zamzam cartons. The vehicle is confirmed in your quote.

During Hajj season

Transport during Hajj, especially between the holy sites, follows the official arrangements set by the authorities for that season. Tell us about your programme and we will confirm which movements we can cover.

Planning a programme with us

1. Send the programme dates, group sizes, flights and hotels.
2. We propose the buses and a movement schedule.
3. Once the contract is agreed, we confirm vehicles and drivers for every movement.
