Hajj is a journey that is sacred for every Muslim. Once they perform Hajj, they get a new life. They get a chance to live their life better than before. That is the reason every year, millions of Muslims try to go on Hajj, but not everyone succeeds. But those who went to perform Hajj never forget this journey. It is very important that when you went there, you don’t worry about anything and offer your prayers with full concentration. For that, it is necessary to choose the right Hajj package.
If you plan things in a hurry, it is rare that you make the right choice. But if you start to make efforts early, you will surely get a package that is perfect for you.
Book in advance
It is much better for you if you get in touch with an agency before and book everything in advance. Because when you try to manage it in the last moment, you have to compromise in many ways. Sometimes you don’t get accommodation of your liking because it was booked by others. There are some who want a direct flight but because of late booking they unable to find one. So, if you want to avoid all these situations and need to design the package them according to your need, contact a company soon.
Select a travel agent who is registered
It is a key point while selecting a company. Because there are some agents, who are not registered and have no contact with the ministry of Hajj. They may organize a trip for you, but once you get out of the country, they will not able to help you by any means. Contrary to that if you choose an agent who is registered, you will stay satisfied during a whole journey. If you face some problem there, you can tell them they will help you.
The other good part is that they are aware of all the rules that are introduced by the Saudi government. If any change happens in those rules, they know about it too.
Your budget
When you set a budget for the Hajj journey, you have to work within that. Check every detail of an individual package. If you have any confusion, take the help of an agent. They will guide you much better. Because you have to keep some money with you too that you can choose in case of any issue.
Food
There are some packages in which food is included, and some don’t have this option. But you don’t have to worry about it much, as the options therein Haram are so many. It is much better if you opt for the choice of the buffet. If you are performing a Hajj with your family than the good choice for you is to select a package that offers food service too.
Accommodation options
The most suitable accommodation for everyone is the one that is close to Haram. Because it is obvious that you want more time for praying. But if the hotel is far, you will spend some crucial time in travelling. It is not compulsory that you go to a 5-star hotel. There are other options too.
Safety and security
You will not have to worry about your security when you choose the right company. A company that has a good reputation will take care of all your needs.
