 Umrah Trips for Reverts! Not for Profit! 

For those travelling for the first time, we highly recommend performing the Umrah trip during the quieter periods. Generally this means avoiding global holiday seasons (i.e. december), as well as Ramadan. 

The weather in Saudi Arabia can also be challenging in the summer, so this should be considered for those with mobility or health issues.

Yes! Our trips are open to brothers and sisters. 

Accommodation / rooms will of course be segregated. 

If one coach is arranged for the whole group, then brothers & sisters will have separate designated seating areas to ensure everyone's privacy and comfort.

The only pre-requisites are that you are a revert / convert and over 18 years old.

Please note that on our group trips, due to limited spaces, we may have to prioritise newer reverts if demand for places is high.

In some exceptional circumstances we will allow a non-revert to travel (i.e. a spouse who is not a revert).

Our aim is to provide quality but affordable Umrah packages for the reverts community. In order to facilitate this, we operate strictly on not-for-profit basis. 

We envisage being able to offer most of our packages for £800 - £875. This covers flights, accommodation, visas, transfers and guided tours.

Some of our trips will be led by a UK scholar. Where we have arranged for this service, the scholar's reasonable costs (flights / accommodation / service charge for time) will also be included in the trip price. The prices we advertise are based on a scholar being present (unless specified otherwise). If a scholar does not attend the trip, the price will be reduced accordingly for attendees.

For full transparency, it is likely that we at Reverts Umrah will operate trips at a slight financial loss. These losses are covered by our generous donors who support the initiative.

We hope so! Please do reach out to us and we will see how we can help.

We offer these services to earn the Pleasure of Allah. We also have a deep attachment to the reverts community and understand how isolating, lonely and difficult the transitional period can be. Through offering these Umrah trips we hope that reverts will be in good supportive company, make lifelong friendships, and most importantly cement and fortify their imaan through the spiritual imaan uplift that flows from this great action of worship! 

We envisage that some trips will be led by a scholar and others will not. We will of course provide full transparency before booking whether a scholar will be joining. 

Rest assured though that where a scholar is not present to accompany the trip, you will still be in good hands and not left alone.

You will be met & greeted at Madinah Airport by one of our team who will accompany you to your hotel. For the days you are Madinah he will always be close by, regularly touching base, and available to meet each day. We will also arrange a local expert to do a tour of the sites in Madinah. 

One of our team will then accompany you on the journey to Makkah and will be staying with you & present throughout your time there and will guide you through your Umrah.

At the end of your trip, he will also take care of your transportation to Jeddah airport.

 Umrah Trips for Reverts: Our team is here to provide you with Islamic guidance during your journey! 

At Reverts Umrah we are Sunni Muslims who strive to follow the Quran & Sunnah.

We accept that reverts are a reflection of the wider Ummah and can come from a variety of backgrounds (both in terms of theology within Sunni Islam - as well as jurisprudential leanings), and we always try to be gentle and inclusive in our approach, and are accepting of mainstream valid differences of opinions.

As a not-for-profit community initiative, we are not ATOL protected. 

For this reason we will never ask for any money upfront. The only payment we will require is for the flights and this will be done once we issue a ticket bearing your name.

All other costs will be paid after arrival in Madinah.
