Muslims travel to Mecca for the Umrah, a profoundly spiritual journey, in order to become closer to Allah and purify their souls. Faith, humility, and spiritual rejuvenation are all part of the Umrah journey. It is a chance to ask for forgiveness, deepen one’s relationship with Allah, and feel the strong sense of belonging that binds Muslims worldwide. It’s an opportunity to fully immerse oneself in Islam and come back with a renewed sense of purpose and a renewed spirit.

Our wonderful tour guide will greet you warmly as we go out on an exciting exploration journey across Alula city, so please buckle up.
Stop-01: Hegra
Hegra, also called Madain Salih, is the first Saudi Arabian site to be designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is located in AlUla. Famous for its colossal rock-cut tombs with elaborate carvings and inscriptions, it was the second-largest city in the Nabataean Kingdom, behind Petra. Hegra, which dates to the first century BCE, has more than 100 tombs carved into enormous sandstone outcrops that showcase the architectural and artistic prowess of the Nabataeans. A unique window into the beliefs and way of life of this ancient culture is offered by the site’s ancient wells and housing remains. Hegra is a beautiful and historically significant place for tourists because of its isolated desert setting, well-preserved inscriptions, and magnificent tomb façades.
Stop-02: Alula’s Old Town
Known for its mud-brick homes, winding lanes, and classic Arabian architecture, AlUla Old Town is an 800-year-old Saudi Arabian community. With about 900 residences, 400 stores, and ancient mosques, it was once a bustling destination on the pilgrimage road to Mecca. Amidst stunning vistas of the desert and oasis, visitors can explore intact structures that combine Roman, Islamic, and Nabataean influences, providing an insight into past lifestyles. Its attractiveness has been maintained by recent conservation efforts, making it a singular location for experiencing real Arabian culture.
Stop 3: Alula
Natural springs and antiquated irrigation systems support the lush, verdant oases of AlUla in the desert. For thousands of years, they have sustained crops, citrus trees, date palms, and other life. These oasis, which stand in stark contrast to the untamed desert and mountains of AlUla, represent the region’s rich agricultural and cultural legacy.
Stop 04: Elephant Rock’s Jabal AlFil
One of AlUla’s most recognizable natural sights is Elephant Rock, also known as Jabal AlFil. It is a huge sandstone formation that resembles an elephant with a long, arching trunk. This boulder, which has been sculpted over millions of years by wind and water erosion, stands out sharply in the desert amid a stunning sand and other rock formations. It is a popular location for photographs and a must-see for tourists visiting AlUla since it is particularly spectacular after sunset.
After that, we bid farewell and wrap up the excursion.
After leaving the Alula Hotel, make your way to Madinah and check into a hotel. Concentrate on your daily Ibadah and prayers.
The first mosque constructed by Muslims, Masjid-e-Quba; Masjid-e-Qiblateen, where Muhammad (PBUH) was given the order to alter the Qiblah;
Masjid-e-Juma – where Muhammad (PBUH) offered the first Khutba of Juma Mubarak on Friday; Grave of Hamza (RA) and Martyrs of Uhud – where 70 companions are buried, including Hamzah bin Abdul Muttalib, who was killed in the battle of Uhud; and Site of Battle of Trench (Khandaq) – where our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) ordered a trench to be dug after receiving a suggestion from Salman Farsi (RA). Muslims were able to beat hostile forces and sustain fewer casualties thanks to their fortifications.
Concentrate on your daily prayers and ibadah after the ziyarah.
Concentrate on your daily Ibadah and prayers. After leaving the Madinah Hotel, proceed to Makkah, check into your hotel, and perform UMRAH the same day.
Mina, also known as the city of tents, is home to more than 100,000 air-conditioned tents that serve as temporary lodging for pilgrims traveling to perform the Hajj, the Cave of Hira (Jabal-e-Noor), where the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) received revelations from Allah SWT through the angel Gabriel, and the Cave of Thawr (Jabal-e-soor), where the Prophet and Abu Bakr al-Siddiq sought refuge from the Quraish.
Masjid al-Khaif, also known as the Mosque of Prophets, is a place where many prophets are believed to have prayed. Jamarat is a crucial location for pilgrims performing the Hajj, and it has three stone columns that are pelted in resemblance to the Prophet Ibrahim (A.S.).The Last Sermon was delivered by Prophet Muhammad PBUH on Mount Arafat (Jabal-Ar-Rahmah); Prophet Adam (AS) offered the Maghrib and Isha prayers together there, which is a necessary component of the Hajj; and many of the Prophet’s ancestors are interred at Jannatul Mualla, including his mother (Aminah), grandfather (Abdul Muttalib), and first wife (Khadijah).
A number of jinn are supposed to have assembled at Masjid Jinn one evening to listen to Muhammad (PBUH) recite a passage from the Quran.
