Which part of Ramadan to go
- February half term (about 13–21 February): fits the school break in the first half of Ramadan, so families can go together.
- First or middle ten days: calmer and better value, with more choice of hotels near the Haram.
- Last ten nights (about 27 February to 9 March): the most sought-after time, including the odd nights when Muslims seek Laylat al-Qadr. Expect large crowds and the highest prices.
- Eid in Makkah: stay until Eid al-Fitr and return a day or two later; fares home are high immediately after Eid.
Because the start and end of Ramadan depend on the moon sighting, we build a day of flexibility into Ramadan packages wherever the flights allow.
When to book Ramadan Umrah 2027
Hotels close to the Haram for the last ten nights are often fully booked months in advance. If you want the last ten nights, book as early as possible; for the first half of the month there is usually more flexibility.
Your visa and permits follow the current Saudi rules. You will need the Nusuk app for some permits, including the Rawdah visit in Madinah, which can be hard to secure in Ramadan. See our Umrah visa guide.
Fasting and travelling: practical tips
- Many scholars allow travellers to break the fast while journeying; ask your imam, and plan suhoor and iftar around your flight times.
- Perform tawaf at quieter times, late at night or mid-morning, especially with children or elderly parents.
- Book hotels with suhoor and iftar arrangements if you want meals close to the Haram.
- Ask us to arrange wheelchair assistance in advance; demand is high during Ramadan.
Flights for Ramadan Umrah from the UK
