FAQ Section

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do pilgrims from Alberta and other provinces choose Al Habib Travel?

Many pilgrims from Alberta, Western Canada, and the Maritimes travel with us because primary international flights to Saudi Arabia depart directly from Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ). By offering coordinated flight schedules, group support upon arrival at YYZ, and full end-to-end management, we make traveling from any Canadian province seamless and hassle-free.

Are Al Habib Umrah packages suitable for first-time pilgrims and families?

Yes. Our fully guided group Umrah packages are specifically structured for first-time pilgrims, families, and seniors. With pre-departure seminars, step-by-step ritual guidance, high-speed train transfers, and 5-star hotels steps from the Haramayn, every detail is handled to make the journey manageable and spiritually rewarding.

What accommodations and ground transport are included?

All our standard group packages feature 5-star hotel accommodations close to the Holy Mosques in Makkah and Madinah with daily breakfast included, luxury Haramain high-speed train tickets between cities, and private air-conditioned coach transfers.

How close are the hotels to Masjid al-Haram in Makkah and Al-Masjid an-Nabawi in Madinah?

All Al Habib Travel 5-star packages feature luxury accommodations located within a 5-minute walking distance from the courtyards of Masjid al-Haram in Makkah and Al-Masjid an-Nabawi in Madinah. This eliminates the need for shuttle buses and allows pilgrims, including seniors and families with children, to return easily between prayers.

How far in advance should I book my Umrah package?

We recommend booking 60 to 90 days in advance for regular winter, December break, and March break Umrah trips. For peak seasons such as Ramadan Umrah packages, booking 4 to 6 months in advance is strongly recommended to secure direct flights and premier hotel inventory near the Haramayn.

Does Al Habib Travel provide wheelchair assistance and senior care during Umrah?

Yes. We specialize in family and senior-friendly Umrah experiences. Our team assists with arranging wheelchair services at Toronto Pearson Airport, Saudi airports, Haramain train stations, and for the performance of Tawaf and Sa’i in Makkah (additional fees may apply). Additionally, choosing hotels directly on the Haram courtyard ensures minimal walking for elderly pilgrims.

Can I request a customized or private Umrah package for my family or group?

Yes. In addition to our flagship guided group tours, Al Habib Travel offers fully customized private Umrah itineraries. You can select your preferred departure dates, airlines (Saudi Air, Emirates, Qatar Airways, Turkish Airlines, etc.), hotel categories, high-speed train tickets, and private chauffeured transport across Makkah, Madinah, and Jeddah. Contact us directly for more details.
