Visit the Holy Lands with Umrah Packages

The Umrah refers to a pilgrimage to Mecca and the Masjid al-Haram. Unlike the Hajj, the Umrah can be undertaken by Muslims at any time during the year. Saudi Arabia welcomes millions of Muslims from around the world for the Umrah and the Hajj. Turkish passport holders have the advantage of entering Saudi Arabia with a visa-on-arrival. Furthermore, in addition to the sacred city of Mecca, Saudi Arabia offers a wealth of natural beauties and a rich cultural heritage that deserve exploration. Turkish Airlines Holidays Umrah tours offer the opportunity to discover Saudi Arabia, a land that has witnessed some of the most significant events in the history of Islam. With Turkish Airlines Holidays Umrah package tours, you can select a hotel within walking distance from the Masjid al-Haram. In addition, you can opt to include our complimentary transfer services between the airport and your hotel on arrival and return. Turkish Airlines Holidays also offers packages for cities such as Jeddah, Medina, Riyadh, Taif and Dammam.
