Overview
Our 14 Nights 3 Star July Umrah Package is for pilgrims who want two full weeks in the Holy Cities while keeping the cost down. You spend 7 nights in Makkah and 7 nights in Madinah, which gives you time to perform Umrah, attend the daily prayers and visit the main Islamic sites at your own pace.
It is one of our cheap Umrah packages for a long stay, and your return flights, Saudi visa, hotels, airport transfers and support are all arranged by our UK team at Aqdas Travel. July also lines up with the UK school summer holidays, so it works well for families, friends, elderly parents and couples who can only travel at this time of year.
Price and Booking
From £749 per person. You can hold your place with a deposit and pay the rest before you travel. Because flights and visa costs are the same whatever the length of the trip, two weeks works out at good value per night.
Before You Book: July Heat
July is one of the hottest months in Saudi Arabia, and daytime temperatures in Makkah can reach 43°C or more. Most pilgrims perform Tawaf and Sa’i after Fajr or late in the evening and rest in their air conditioned room in the middle of the day. If you are travelling with elderly relatives, young children or anyone with a health condition, speak to your GP before you book.

Why Choose This Package?
Two weeks gives you time to do more than the basics. In Makkah you can perform your Umrah, rest properly and go back to the Haram for extra Tawaf and prayers in the cooler hours of the early morning and evening. In Madinah you have a full week to pray at Masjid Nabawi, book your Rawdah visit on the Nusuk app and see Quba Mosque and the other historic sites.
Both hotels are around a 10 minute walk from the Harams. In July that walk can feel much longer in the midday sun, so plan your trips to the mosque around the cooler times of day and use a taxi when you need to.
Every booking is ATOL protected under licence 12834, and you can read reviews from other pilgrims on Trustpilot. If you are flexible on dates, you can also compare cooler months for Umrah travel.
Frequently Asked Questions
How hot is it in July?
Makkah can reach 43°C or more during the day, and nights stay warm. Plan your Tawaf and Sa’i for early morning or late evening, drink plenty of water and rest indoors in the afternoon.

Emaar Elite is around 900 metres from Masjid al Haram, usually a 10 to 15 minute walk, with an uphill walk back. Al Eiman Taibah is around 800 metres from Masjid Nabawi, usually a 10 minute walk.
Is two weeks too long in July?
Not if you plan around the heat. With 14 nights you do not need to rush, so you can rest in the afternoons and still have plenty of time for worship in the cooler hours.
