Ramadan 2027 · Cost
What Umrah in Ramadan 2027 really costs
Two prices for Ramadan Umrah on the same dates can be far apart and still not be comparable. Here is what changes the total, and what to ask so any quote shows it.
What changes the total
A headline price is usually the lowest combination: the cheapest part of the month, the most people per room, the furthest hotel, before taxes and charges. Compare the same things side by side.
| Ask | Why it changes the price | What our written quote shows |
|---|---|---|
| Which part of Ramadan? | Rates rise through the month and peak in the last ten nights. A price for the first ten days is not a price for the last ten. | Each part of the month at its own rate, for your exact dates. |
| How many nights in each city? | A shorter Makkah stay, or more nights in Madinah, lowers a headline price without saying so. | Nights in Makkah and Madinah, listed separately. |
| How many people share a room? | “From” prices are often for four or five sharing. The same trip for two in a double room costs more per person. | The price for the room sharing you choose. |
| Which hotel, and how far is the walk? | “Near the Haram” can mean a short walk or a shuttle ride. In Ramadan, distance decides how often you can pray in the Haram. | The hotel by name and the walking distance to a named gate, with no substitute hotel unless you agree. |
| Are taxes included? | A price before taxes looks lower than a total. For bookings from India, GST and TCS are added as applicable under Indian law. | Taxes stated as included or not. |
| Is there a card charge? | Online payments carry a gateway fee: 2% on payments in India and 3.5% on cards from abroad for hotel stays. A bank transfer in India has none. | The card charge shown before you pay, never added at the last step. |
| Meals, transport and visa? | Suhoor and Iftar in the hotel, private or shared transfers, and the visa can each be in or out of a price. | Every inclusion listed; anything not listed is not included. |
| What if plans change? | A cheaper rate can be non-refundable. In Ramadan, a free-cancellation date is worth money. | The last date you can cancel free of charge. |
