Why add AlUla to your Umrah

AlUla is a valley of sandstone and palms three hours north of Madinah. We focus on the living oasis, the mud-brick Old Town and the mirrored Maraya — and deliberately leave out the ruins of Thamud.

Adab & halal notes

  • • Itineraries focus on the oasis, Old Town, Maraya and natural rock formations.

AlUla Umrah+ questions

Is visiting AlUla permissible after Umrah?

Visiting the oasis, Old Town and natural landscapes is common. Scholars advise avoiding the dwellings of Thamud (Al-Hijr/Hegra) per the Hadith — our itineraries exclude them.

How do I get from Madinah to AlUla?

About 3.5 hours by private car, or a short domestic flight to AlUla International Airport (ULH).
