How to choose your month

The best month for Umrah from India depends on your budget, the weather and how busy you want the Haram to be.

November to February is the most comfortable, with Makkah at 25–30°C. Ramadan 2027 (expected around 8 February to 9 March) is the most rewarding and the busiest, and the last ten nights sell out first. June to August is the hottest and the cheapest, a good choice for able-bodied pilgrims on a budget.

Umrah visas pause for Hajj from about mid-April 2027, and Hajj 2027 is expected around 14–19 May 2027 depending on the moon. Registrations for Hajj 2028 usually open in July 2027. Tell us your month on WhatsApp and we will recommend the right package and hotels for it.
