Zaitoon umrahReviews of hajartravels.com

It was a great experience to visit the holy places in the last Ashrah of Ramadan, with the help of Hajar travels and the grace of Allah. Personally, it was a bit exhausting for me as I was traveling alone and after changing 3 different flights, at Jeddah airport I was roaming around for about 2 hours waiting for the transportation and finally when the bus was arranged and we reached hotel in Mecca, it took another hour or so in getting a room. I had a severe migraine and spending every minute was hard. I think it could’ve been avoided if the ride to hotel was arranged beforehand. Getting a room was also a hassle for many people in group due to a large crowd of around 2.5 million pilgrims in last 10 days of Ramadan. Overall it was a great experience but some of the things should have been arranged beforehand for people like me traveling alone. In the first few days, finding the bus from haram back to hotel was also a challenge, and I literally walked for hours to find a way back to hotel. These are not big issues but could’ve been avoided with a little more planning and organization.

We had some hiccups initially that in retrospect now I would call minor. We didn’t get our room keys for hours and ended up having to share a room the first few days with another family. This turned out to be a wonderful experience however and a chance to meet other wonderful people. So alhamdulillah Allah swt had a plan. The CEO Br Abdu Samad was very responsive to our initial issues. Voco in Makkah is a great new hotel but a 15 minute walk from the haram. The shuttle ran continuously around salah times but it could be a little trickier if you wanted to go at off hours (2 am for instance - we had to wait 45 minutes then). Walking was always a great option however and a straight shot. Our stay in Medina was just heavenly. The hotel was great and just across the street from the haram. Ziyarat went well in both Makkah and Medina. Overall, it’s a great value for the price. I would recommend it and will book again. You do have to remain positive and respect the holy grounds you’re walking on, know there will always be hiccups around busy times in Makkah no matter which agency, and you’ll have a great experience. We have been to umrah several times with a different agency that is great but was very overpriced for Ramadan. This was a very good option and frankly reasonably priced. Thank you Brs Nouman and Javed on the ground, Br Ibrahim our agent who set it all up, and of course Br Abdu Samad for a great experience overall!

My first time Umrah and that too with a large family group. I had personalized package from them. Alhamdulillah most of the things went smooth and well except for a little nuisance regarrding my infant ticket. Hotels were at walking steps as i requested. Hubaiba was responsive to my emails and questions. It was a great experience overall.

Hubaiba Farooq was wonderful to work with. She is very friendly and knowledgeable and was very organized. We felt very at ease

Everything was great. Staff were professional and available when needed.

We recently completed our umrah journey with Hajar Travels. It was a very good experience. The hotel in Mecca what is the closest possible to Kaaba. The one in Madina was also very close. The time for ziarats was a bit short, roughly 2-2.5 hours in Mecca, only. They took care about transportation from Mecca to Madina and from Medina to Jeddah. The communication to the team is good. Br. Adnan did his best to address all our needs. Thanks to him and the team!

Everyone is very respectful right from booking till end.

this is to my life is excellent trip. they are on time and gave us good hotel and take care of us . insha allah if i’m going again then i’m going with them .
