Why Easter is the Perfect Time for Umrah in 2025

Convenient Holiday Scheduling

The Easter holidays, from 7th to 21st April 2025, provide a convenient window for Umrah. With schools and offices closed, these two weeks often align with school breaks and public holidays, making it the perfect time for families to plan their Umrah journey without disrupting their daily routines. 

Enjoyable Weather in Saudi Arabia

March and April in Saudi Arabia offer moderate temperatures (30°C to 40°C), making outdoor rituals like Tawaf and Sa’i comfortable for pilgrims. The temperature falls to 20 °C at night, which is especially beneficial for Umrah pilgrims from colder areas like the UK, ensuring a relaxed and enjoyable journey. 

Seasonal Discounts

Over 18 Million Umrahs were performed in 2024, and the best time for Umrah is Easter due to public holidays, cool weather, and other factors. Due to the rising number of Umrah pilgrims during Easter, airlines and tour operators offer travel promotions.

With Madina Tours UK’s special Easter Umrah deals, you can save on flights and accommodation while enjoying a seamless journey.
