Umrah in Makkah and Madinah plus 4 to 6 nights in Iran, on one booking from the UK.

**Quick answer:** Our Umrah Plus Iran packages combine your Umrah in Makkah and Madinah with 4 to 6 nights in Iran, on one booking from the UK. We arrange the flights between each stop, hotels, transfers and tours, and tell you exactly which visas you need. Prices are on request because every trip is tailored.

## Why add Iran to your Umrah?

Many pilgrims wish to visit the shrine of Imam Reza in Mashhad and the holy city of Qom. Flights connect through the Gulf to Mashhad or Tehran.

## A typical itinerary

- **Fly from the UK** to Jeddah or Madinah.
- **Umrah and Madinah**: 7 to 14 nights in Makkah and Madinah, with hotels from 3 to 5 star.
- **Fly to Iran** for 4 to 6 nights, with airport transfers and optional guided tours.
- **Fly home to the UK** from Iran, so there is no need to go back through Saudi Arabia.

You can also visit Iran first and finish with Umrah. Tell us your dates and we will plan the best order and flights.

## Visa for Iran

A visa is required. Travel to Iran is subject to UK government travel advice, which currently warns against travel; we only arrange this trip when the advice allows and your insurance covers it. Visa rules depend on your passport and can change, so we confirm what you need before you book. See [GOV.UK travel advice](https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/iran) for the latest entry requirements.

**Travel advice:** the UK government publishes advice for Iran that can change at short notice. We check it before every booking and will not send you anywhere the advice says not to travel. Please check [GOV.UK travel advice](https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/iran) too, and make sure your travel insurance covers your whole trip.

## Best time to go

Spring and autumn. We can match your Iran stay to school holidays or the quieter months for better prices.

## How to book

Send us your dates using the form on this page, call or WhatsApp us. We will send you a tailored itinerary and price in writing, usually the same day. You can secure it with a deposit and pay the rest in instalments.
