13 nights combining Umrah with Egypt, 5 star hotels and flights from Birmingham on one ticket.

  • The Giza pyramids
  • Makkah hotel: about 150 m from the Haram
  • Haramain high speed train between the holy cities

Destinations: Cairo

A practical choice for travellers from Birmingham and nearby states. The plan covers 13 nights in total, with the time split so you can pray in both Harams without feeling rushed.

The 5 star hotels are a few minutes from the Haram. In Makkah you are at Hilton Suites Makkah, which means you can join prayers in the mosque or its outer courtyards with very little walking. This is the best option for elderly travellers and anyone with limited mobility.

After Umrah you fly on to Egypt for 3 nights with breakfast and a guided city tour, then fly home on the same ticket.

Prices are per person and based on four people sharing a room. Send an inquiry with your dates and we will reply with exact flights and the final price.
