Yes. No matter which package you choose, a religious guide will accompany the group. At the same time we advise that you are fully aware of the Hajj or Umrah rituals prior to departure, according to your specific beliefs or sect, as we take no responsibility for this.
There are three ways of performing the Hajj
1. Hajj al-Tamattu’
2. Hajj al-Ifrad
3. Hajj al-Qiran
Hajj al-Tamattu’. Involves performing Umrah and then Hajj, with one Ihram for each.
This form of Hajj is considered the best of three forms of Hajj. It is the one that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) urged his followers to perform and is the one adopted by most pilgrims from overseas.
The local currency in Saudi Arabia is Saudi Riyals. Exchange rates vary from time to time so should be checked prior to travel. Current rates are between 5 & 6 riyals.
