Umrah is a deeply spiritual journey that every Muslim aspires to complete. Unlike Hajj, it can be performed any time of the year and is often a starting point for those who wish to experience the sacred cities of Makkah and Madinah. In this guide, we at Amaan Travel Tech will take you through everything you need to know about performing Umrah in 2025 — and yes, we’re here to help at every step.
1. Visa & Documentation
For Indian residents, the Umrah visa process has been simplified. You will need:
- Valid passport (minimum 6 months validity)
- 2 passport-size photographs
- Return air tickets and hotel bookings
We assist with the full visa process, including e-visa applications, reminders, and even document verification.
2. Booking the Right Package
Choose a package that suits your budget and comfort level. At Amaan Travel Tech, we offer:
- Economy Group Umrah
- Private Executive Packages
- Customized trips for families
We understand that everyone’s needs are different, and we try our best to match you with the perfect experience without overcomplicating things.
3. What to Pack
Here are essentials you should carry:
- Ihram (2 white unstitched clothes for men)
- Comfortable walking slippers
- Reusable water bottle
- Small prayer mat
- Personal medication
Don’t worry if you’re unsure what to bring — we’ll guide you through it personally.
4. Spiritual Preparation
Make sincere intention (niyyah), learn the basic duas, and try to understand the meaning behind each ritual. You can carry a pocket guide or mobile app for this purpose.
We also provide beginner-friendly guides and reminders to make this process smoother for first-time pilgrims.
5. Step-by-Step Rituals
- Enter Ihram and recite Talbiyah
- Tawaf: Circumambulate the Kaaba 7 times
- Sa’i: Walk between Safa and Marwah
- Tahallul: Shave or trim the hair
6. Visiting Madinah
Though not a part of Umrah, visiting Masjid An-Nabawi in Madinah is highly recommended. Spend time in worship, visit the Rawdah, and give salam to the Prophet Muhammad (SAW).
We always recommend including Madinah in your itinerary — it’s a peaceful end to your sacred journey.
7. Travel Etiquette & Tips
- Be patient and courteous to fellow pilgrims
- Follow Saudi laws and local customs
- Keep your belongings safe
- Keep emergency numbers handy
We brief every traveler on etiquette, local norms, and dos and don’ts before departure — just to keep things stress-free.
