OCTOBER UMRAH – HALF BOARD

Your spiritual journey begins! Arrive at Toronto Pearson International Airport 3 to 4 hours ahead of your flight. If you’re joining us from outside Ontario, allow ample time for potential domestic flight delays. Once at the airport, proceed to check-in and security – we’ll all meet at the gate. If you’ve received your Falcon Travel ID card, wear it with pride. Otherwise, our Sheikh or Group Leader (GL) will distribute them at the gate or on the plane.

Welcome to the radiant city of Al-Madinah Al-Munawarah! After immigration, a short 20-30 minute bus ride will whisk you away to your luxurious hotel. Once settled, we recommend freshening up and heading to Al-Masjid An-Nabawi to offer your prayers and salutations to our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

Today is yours to explore Madinah. Make the most of your time by offering Salah in Al-Masjid An-Nabawi and receiving the blessings of congregational prayer. Explore the local area and its myriad of shops at your leisure.

Our sightseeing adventure begins bright and early at 7 or 8 AM. Stay connected with your family and respect the time allocated at each site to ensure a smooth and enriching experience.

Note: The precise time for our sightseeing will be shared a day in advance via our WhatsApp group or directly from your group leader. As you embark on these explorations, ensure that each family member has a cell phone for easy communication.

Spend this free day in prayer at Al-Masjid An-Nabawi and wrap up your shopping. On this last day, join our seminar at the hotel where the Sheikh will delve into the details of Ihram and Umrah.

During the seminar, you will receive instructions about handling your luggage as we will pick them up to ship it to Makkah typically on the evening of your last night in Madinah. To ensure a smooth transition, we advise completing all your shopping by the morning of your final day in Madinah, which falls on October 15th, 2024. This will allow you ample time to pack and prepare your luggage to be ready in the evening.

Start your day with a hearty breakfast at the hotel before donning your Ihram and preparing for check-out. Remember to be punctual and gather at the hotel lobby as per the instructions provided the previous day. Also, ensure to clear any room service charges upon check-out to ensure a smooth departure.

You’ll then set off for Makkah. Upon arrival, check into your hotel, refuel with some food, and then join the group in the lobby to perform Umrah.

Our Makkah sightseeing adventure begins early in the morning. Stay connected with your group and respect the time allocated at each site for a memorable experience.

Spend your last free day in Makkah praying at Al-Masjid Al-Haram and wrapping up your shopping. You’ll also receive instructions regarding Tawaf Al Weda’ (farewell Tawaf) and departure details.

Begin your day with Tawaf Al-Weda’, followed by a hearty breakfast at the hotel. Remember to be punctual and gather at the hotel lobby as per the instructions provided the previous day. Also, ensure to clear any room service charges upon check-out to ensure a smooth departure.

After checking out, board the bus to King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah, marking the end of this unforgettable spiritual journey.
