FAQ – Al-Azam Tours & Travel

To verify the authenticity of a tour operator, one should visit the physical location of Al Azam Tours & Travels’ head office.
A company with a physical presence will also have an online reputation on search engines like Google, including a legitimate website. Travelers should also check the number of staff working in the corporate office, as this reflects the agency’s credibility.
It is advisable to consult relatives or friends about the services provided by the travel agency for different tours, such as Hajj, Umrah, and Ziyarat.
Another crucial factor is the package price quoted by the travel company. It should be reasonably cost-effective—neither too low nor suspiciously cheap. If the price is significantly lower than expected, it may indicate potential issues. Passengers should carefully calculate the overall package cost based on their knowledge.
Additionally, the travel agency must be registered with both the Indian and Saudi Arabian governments and possess the necessary permits to conduct Umrah and Hajj tours.

Comparing prices is not the only factor a customer should consider before booking an Umrah package with Al Azam Tours & Travels.
If a traveler is comparing package prices, they should also evaluate the services included in the Umrah tour. Does the tour operator offer a direct and comfortable airline flight to Jeddah and a return flight from Madinah?
Is the travel agency providing quality accommodation in both sacred cities, Makkah and Madinah? What is the hotel’s star rating, and how far is it from Masjid Al Haram in Makkah and Masjid Al Nabawi in Madinah?
Private transfers can be expensive—does the tour operator ensure reliable transportation and Ziyarat facilities in both cities?
Food is a crucial aspect of the Umrah journey. Will the tour operator provide meals from catering services, or will they be freshly prepared by chefs in a dedicated kitchen for the pilgrims?
Laundry services can also be a concern, as they are significantly more expensive abroad compared to India. Pilgrims should check whether the tour operator offers complimentary laundry services.
These are some of the key aspects passengers should consider when comparing Umrah package prices and services from any travel company.

As Muslim brothers and sisters know, the sacred journey of Hajj is performed only once a year, and only a few among our friends and family have the opportunity to embark on this path of self-purification.
Hajj consists of various essential rituals that every pilgrim must perform, significantly impacting the overall cost of the journey, which must be borne by the traveler. These expenses include Mouallim fees, Mina, Arafat, and other services. Items that are available at regular prices during Umrah see a substantial price increase during Hajj.
As Muslims from across the globe prepare to stand in the House of Almighty Allah at Masjid Al Haram, it is important to be aware that costs may be higher than expected. Airlines also take advantage of this peak season to maximize their profits, knowing that Hajj is an obligatory act in Islam, required once in a lifetime.
Additionally, obtaining a Hajj visa is more expensive than an Umrah visa. Hotel prices during the Hajj season are significantly higher compared to the rates during Umrah.
Al Azam Tours & Travels has been dedicated to serving pilgrims for 30 years, ensuring a seamless and spiritually fulfilling experience for those undertaking this sacred journey.

A tour guide plays a crucial role during an Umrah journey. While the guide provides essential guidance, they may not be able to assist with performing Umrah or Tawaaf individually, as they are responsible for managing an entire group.
Commonly known as a group leader, the tour guide ensures that all members of the group are treated equally and manages logistics such as hotel accommodations and meals based on the package selected by the pilgrim.
Al Azam Tours & Travels provides a dedicated tour guide to assist and guide pilgrims during their Hajj, Umrah, and Ziyarat tours.
However, the group leader is not responsible for the specific services included in the pilgrim’s chosen package. Each passenger will receive services according to the package they have selected.

To travel to a foreign country with complete comfort is essential, ensuring the passenger enjoys a smooth and relaxing journey.
There are numerous options available for flights to Saudi Arabia, with popular choices including Saudi Airlines, Air Arabia, Fly Dubai, Indigo, and more.
Saudi Airlines is widely recognized as one of the best airlines for traveling to Saudi Arabia.
For budget-conscious travelers, opting for a connecting flight can be a more affordable choice, as indirect flights tend to be cheaper than direct ones. Generally, the longer the layover at an airport, the lower the ticket price.
