Winter Umrah Packages

Umrah in the winter season

Winter is one of the best times to perform Umrah. Temperatures in Makkah and Madinah are mild, the days are comfortable for worship and walking, and departures line up with the winter holidays.

Winter departures

These packages depart across December, January and February, with nights in both holy cities, the Haramain train, transfers and a guide for your Umrah. Compare durations and routes using the filters, or ask a Tuyba specialist about dates and hotels.

Why travel for Umrah in winter

Cooler weather makes the rites easier, especially for older travellers and families with children. Winter is also a favourite for first‑time pilgrims who want a calmer, more comfortable journey.

Frequently asked questions

Is winter a good time for Umrah?

Yes. Cooler weather in Makkah and Madinah makes the rites comfortable, which is why December and the winter months are so popular.

Is December Umrah busy?

December is peak season as it lines up with the winter school break, so hotels near the Haram sell out early. Book ahead for the best choice.

What's included in the package?

Hotel nights in Makkah and Madinah, airport and hotel transfers, the Haramain high‑speed train between the two cities, and a guide for your Umrah on arrival. Flights are arranged separately so you can choose your departure city and cabin.

How much does Umrah cost?

The cost depends on your dates, hotel rating and how close you stay to the Haram. Off‑peak dates and 3‑star hotels are the most affordable, while Ramadan and 5‑star hotels cost more. Contact Tuyba for a quote for your chosen dates.
