April Umrah Packages 2027

April Umrah Packages — 3-Star to 5-Star

Every April package includes return flights from a UK airport, hotel accommodation in Makkah and Madinah, Umrah visa processing through the Nusuk platform and private airport-to-hotel transfers. The Nusuk platform issues both the Umrah visa and the travel permit required before arrival in Saudi Arabia.

Three tiers cover every budget: 3-star economy hotels sit within walking distance of the Haram, 4-star comfort properties offer upgraded rooms and facilities, and 5-star premium hotels stand directly overlooking or adjacent to Masjid al-Haram. Quad sharing — four adults per room — delivers the lowest cost at every star level. Double sharing gives couples and smaller parties added privacy. Prices are available on request — contact us for the latest April rates across all tiers and durations.

April 2027 — Spring Break Travel and Season Closure

April 2027 departures are limited to the first week — all pilgrims must leave by 7 April as the Hajj preparation period begins. No new Umrah visas are issued until approximately late July 2027. The Islamic calendar shifts roughly 11 days each year, so future Aprils may fall outside the closure window.

Direct flights from London Heathrow to Jeddah run on Saudia and British Airways. Connecting routes through Istanbul, Doha or Dubai open departures from Manchester, Birmingham and other regional airports. Before arriving in Makkah, pilgrims enter the state of ihram at the miqat, the designated boundary point where consecration for Umrah begins.

Hotels sit within walking distance of Masjid al-Haram in Makkah and close to Masjid an-Nabawi in Madinah.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you do Umrah in April 2027?

Yes, but only in a narrow early-April window. The Umrah season for 1448 AH closes in April 2027: last visa issued 9 March, last entry 23 March, last departure 7 April. After that date, Umrah is suspended until approximately late July. The Islamic calendar shifts roughly 11 days each year, so future Aprils may sit outside the closure period. Pilgrims with a tourist eVisa can visit Saudi Arabia during Hajj preparation, though performing Umrah is restricted.

What is included in an April Umrah package?

Every April package covers return flights from a UK airport, hotel accommodation in Makkah and Madinah, Umrah visa processing through the Nusuk platform, private airport-to-hotel transfers and inter-city transport. The Saudi government issues the Umrah visa free of charge — the UK fee covers agency processing only. UK passport holders receive an e-visa without visiting the Saudi embassy; Labbaik handles the full application as part of your package. Hotels range from 3-star economy to 5-star premium, all within walking distance of Masjid al-Haram. Optional extras include guided Ziyarat tours to historical sites in both cities and hotel meal plans.

Is April a good time to do Umrah?

April weather in Makkah is warm but well below the 40°C-plus summer extremes, making outdoor rituals including tawaf and sa'i more comfortable. Off-peak travel conditions mean shorter queues at Masjid al-Haram and wider hotel availability. The UK spring break falls in April, giving families with school-age children a travel window without missing term time. In 2027, the Umrah season closes in early April — pilgrims must depart by 7 April, so check dates carefully.

Does the UK spring break fall during April Umrah?

Yes. The UK spring break runs across April, and in most years April carries full Umrah availability alongside comfortable weather for tawaf and sa'i at Masjid al-Haram. In 2027, the Umrah season closes in early April — pilgrims must depart by 7 April — so only the first days of the spring break overlap with the travel window. Off-peak conditions in early April mean shorter queues at the Haram and wider hotel availability at every star level. In future years where Hajj falls later in the calendar, the full spring break period sits inside the Umrah season, making April a strong month for families travelling during school holidays without missing term time.

What happens after the Umrah season closes in April 2027?

After 7 April 2027, the Kingdom shifts to the Hajj preparation period. No new Umrah visas are issued, and pilgrims still in Saudi Arabia on an Umrah visa must depart. The Haram in Makkah is reserved for Hajj rites that take place across Dhu al-Hijjah. Tourist eVisa holders can still enter Saudi Arabia during this period, but performing Umrah is restricted by the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah — the tourist eVisa permits Umrah outside the Hajj season only. Umrah visas reopen after Hajj concludes, approximately late July 2027. For 2027 Umrah, we recommend booking a January, February or early-March departure while visas remain active.
