NO MAHRAM NEEDED

Can Women Perform Umrah Without a Mahram?

Yes. Women aged 18 and over can perform Umrah without a Mahram, travelling alone or with other women, and need no one's permission to book. Our ladies' groups travel with a female leader, so no woman has to make the journey by herself.

The Saudi visa cost is included in your Umrah package price. We do not sell visas separately, and visa approval is decided by the Saudi authorities; see the Umrah requirements guide for pilgrims for what each passport needs.

WOMEN-ONLY UMRAH

What Is a Women's Umrah Package?

It is an Umrah trip for women travelling without a male guardian: a women-only group with a female leader, rooms shared only with other women, and the flights, hotels and transfers in one price. It suits solo women, sisters, mothers and daughters, and groups of friends, and the group stays together for the airport, the journey between the cities and Ziyarat.

PRICES

How Much Does a Women's Umrah Package Cost?

From £535 per person for a 3 Star week when four women share a room, £580 on 4 Star and £835 on 5 Star, with flights. Two friends sharing a double room pay £785 each on the 3 Star week, and a room of your own costs £1,060. Ten nights on 3 Star start at £585 with four sharing.

Compare the hotels on our 3 Star Umrah page, our 4 Star Umrah page and our 5 Star Umrah page; the lowest prices of all are on cheap Umrah packages from the UK.

JOINING ALONE

Can You Join Alone and Share a Room With Other Women?

Yes. A woman booking on her own is roomed with other women in the group, which keeps the price at the sharing rate rather than the cost of a single room. Tell us if you are travelling with a sister, mother or friend and we keep you in the same room.

RULES FOR WOMEN

What Are the Umrah Rules for Women?

Three points differ for women: Ihram is her normal modest clothing in any colour, with the face and hands uncovered; the Talbiyah is recited quietly; and during menstruation she enters Ihram and makes the intention, but delays Tawaf and the prayer until she is pure. She continues with du'a and dhikr in the meantime, and then completes her Umrah. The rites step by step are in our complete guide to Umrah from the UK.

WHAT TO PACK

What Should Women Pack for Umrah?

Six essentials cover it; avoid perfumed products while in Ihram.

  • Loose abayas and modest prayer clothing.
  • Comfortable walking shoes or sandals.
  • A personal prayer mat and a pocket Quran.
  • Unscented toiletries for Ihram.
  • Regular medication, with a doctor's note.
  • A light layer for cool evenings and the winter months.
SAFETY AND SUPPORT

Is It Safe for a Woman to Travel for Umrah Alone?

Women aged 18 and over are free to perform Umrah without a Mahram, and a package keeps the practical side in one pair of hands: the group travels together, transfers are booked in advance, and help is a call away. Our travel agents answer the phone 24/7, group departures have a dedicated leader, and on a private trip our team in Makkah and Madinah can reach you within 45 minutes. Between the two cities you travel with your group by road, or on the Haramain high-speed train if you add it.

DEPARTURE AIRPORTS

Which UK Airports Can Women's Umrah Groups Fly From?

Any UK airport: Saudia flies direct to Jeddah from Heathrow, Gatwick and Manchester, and from Birmingham on selected dates, and other airports connect through a hub. A car from your home to the airport can be added to any booking.

LEADER, GUIDE AND ZIYARAT

Does a Female Leader Travel With the Group?

Yes: our ladies' groups travel with a female leader who stays with the group and helps with the rites. Guidance for Umrah itself follows the tier, from a printed guide on 3 Star to an Umrah guide on 4 Star and a scholar on 5 Star, and Ziyarat is included from the 10-night 4 Star package upwards. Mothers travelling with children can see Umrah for the family, and women from one mosque or community can book together on Umrah packages for mosque and family groups.

LENGTH AND EXTRAS

Can You Choose the Length and What Is Included?

Yes. Women's packages run for 7, 10 or 14 nights, and any of them can be changed. Compare our 7 days Umrah page, 10 days Umrah trips and our 14 days Umrah page, settle meals and Ziyarat in advance with Umrah packages with meals and Ziyarat, or ask for bespoke Umrah trips with the hotels you prefer.

Our ladies' groups are for women, with a female leader and rooms shared only with other women; flights and the mosques themselves are of course shared with all pilgrims.
