Al Habib Travel Ltd: Umrah and Hajj agency for UK pilgrims

Al Habib Travel Ltd is a London-based travel agency specialising in organising Umrah and Hajj pilgrimages for Muslims living in the UK. The company presents itself as an ATOL-protected and IATA-registered agency, and states that every Umrah package includes an ATOL certificate issued together with the invoice. Its activity is aimed at British, European, Asian and African communities, and it supports departures from cities such as London, Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow.

Umrah packages with included services

The agency sells Umrah packages for 2026 which, according to its catalogue, include return flights from the departure city to Jeddah with premium airlines, visa assistance and processing, ground transport in air-conditioned vehicles — including airport transfers and journeys between Makkah and Madinah — and accommodation in hotels near the holy sites, with double or triple rooms. Meals are listed as an optional service.

The company distinguishes between what is included and the extras. Among the additional services it lists are travel insurance, private or additional Ziyarat trips, a Zamzam water allowance, local SIM cards or wifi devices, laundry and personal services, room or service upgrades and wheelchair assistance.

Price range and package types

Al Habib Travel's catalogue indicates that Umrah packages start from £675 and go up to £1,075 for the premium options. The final cost depends on travel dates, hotel category and package type. The agency offers 3, 4 and 5-star packages, as well as monthly packages, Ramadan packages and tailor-made options for those seeking a more personalised proposal. A standout feature of its offering is accommodation near the Haram, which makes it easier to access prayers and reduces the strain of travelling during the stay.

Profile of the travellers served

The packages are designed for solo travellers, couples, families, elderly people, first-time pilgrims and groups. The company notes that its experience allows it to respond to different needs: first-timers tend to require more guidance, families need flexibility and elderly pilgrims may need greater comfort and additional support. The agency also includes a guided Ziyarat tour and an experienced Umrah guide.

Track record and reviews

Al Habib Travel states that over the last four years it has served more than 20,000 pilgrims and 5,000 families. The company has a 4.6 rating on Tripadvisor given by Umrah pilgrims, a fact it uses to back up its reputation. It presents itself as a specialist in Umrah and Hajj and stresses that its team responds to enquiries in minutes, not hours, and that it offers 24-hour customer service before, during and after the trip.

Physical presence and UK coverage

The agency operates from London, with a main office on Station Road, near Norwood Junction, in the south-east of the city, and a second office in south-west London, near Abercairn Road. The company highlights that it is not limited to an online enquiry form, but has a physical presence, contact details and a support team. Its service area covers the country's main departure points, which allows it to serve pilgrims from different British regions.
