Why Perform Umrah in April?
If you have been waiting for the right time to book your Umrah, April might be it. Here is why so many Canadian pilgrims choose this month.
The weather is comfortable: April in Makkah brings daytime highs of around 33 to 36 degrees Celsius, with cooler mornings and evenings. Madinah is a few degrees milder. Compare that to July and August, when temperatures regularly pass 43 degrees, and you can see why April makes Tawaf, Sa'i, and long walks to the Haram much easier. Especially for seniors, children, and anyone travelling with family.
The crowds thin out after Ramadan: Ramadan draws millions of pilgrims to Makkah, and the weeks right after Eid al-Fitr are noticeably calmer. In April, you can pray closer to the Kaaba, find space in the Haram without hours of waiting, and complete your rituals at your own pace. For first-time pilgrims, this calm makes a real difference.
Prices come down: Airfare and hotel rates in Makkah and Madinah drop sharply once Ramadan ends. That is why our April Umrah packages cost hundreds of dollars less than our Ramadan packages for the same hotels and the same length of stay. If your goal is a peaceful, affordable Umrah, April gives you the best of both.
It lines up with spring break for many families: Depending on your province, April school holidays can make it easier to travel with children without missing too much class time.
Can't travel in the spring? Fall offers similar mild weather and calm crowds. Take a look at our October Umrah Packages as an alternative.

What Is Included in Every April Umrah Package?
Hidden fees are the number one complaint we hear about other agencies. So let us be clear about exactly what your package covers.
- Return flights from Canada. We book your round-trip airfare from your nearest major airport, with air tickets. Direct and one-stop options are available depending on your departure city.
- Umrah visa processing. We handle your entire visa application with the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah. The paperwork, the submission, the approval, and delivery. You do not need to visit an embassy.
- Hotel accommodation in Makkah and Madinah. Your nights are split between both holy cities based on the itinerary you choose. All hotels are pre-inspected for cleanliness and proximity to the Haramain.
- Ground transportation. Airport pickup in Jeddah or Madinah, the intercity transfer between Makkah and Madinah, and drop-off for your return flight are all included.
- Vaccination and health guidance. We tell you exactly which vaccinations Saudi Arabia requires for April travel and where to get them in Canada, so nothing holds up your trip.
- 24/7 support in Saudi Arabia. Our on-site representatives are a phone call away throughout your stay. Flight delay? Room issue? We handle it while you focus on worship.
Available on request: guided Ziyarat tours of the historic sites in Makkah and Madinah with a qualified Sheikh, wheelchair assistance, and connecting rooms for families.

Common Worries We Solve for Canadian Pilgrims
After 8+ years of arranging Umrah trips from Canada, we know exactly what keeps pilgrims up at night. Here is how we handle each concern.
"What if my visa gets refused or delayed?" Our visa experts submit complete, correct applications the first time. We are authorized by the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah, and we track every application until it is approved. If a document is missing, we catch it before submission not after.
"Will my hotel really be close to the Haram?" Yes, and we tell you the actual hotel name and its distance before you pay. Some agencies advertise "near Haram" and place guests 30 minutes away. We do not. Ask us for the exact property, check it on Google Maps yourself, and book only when you are satisfied.
"Are there hidden fees?" No. The price we quote is the price you pay. Flights, visa, hotels, and transport are all in the quoted figure. Optional extras like private Ziyarat tours are priced separately and clearly, and only if you ask for them.
"I've never done Umrah before. Will someone guide me?" Absolutely. First-time pilgrims receive a step-by-step guide covering Ihram, Tawaf, Sa'i, and every dua along the way. On group departures, a qualified Sheikh travels with you and answers your questions in person.
"What if my plans change?" Our booking starts with a deposit of just C$100, and our flexible policy lets you modify dates before ticketing without heavy penalties. Life happens, we build room for it.
"Is my money safe?" Islamic Tour Canada is an TICO-protected Umrah travel agency approved by the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah. Your booking is backed by certification, not just promises. We have served Canadian pilgrims for more than two decades from our office in Calgary, Alberta.
