First we would like to address this common myth in the general public, that most umrah agents have similar services and only differentiating factor is price. We would request you to change your perception or else you are bound to make wrong selection of umrah agent and can totally ruin your umrah experience. You can always look for clear indications that differentiate them from each other by asking the right questions and by cross checking their track-record. Below are few things if kept in mind while comparing Umrah travel agents to select best traveling agency. You wouldn’t make costly mistakes and only book Ideal Umrah Package for yourself or family and perform umrah in peace of mind.
The unfortunate fact in this industry is that every second website you will come across would claim to be number-one in industry, and would claim to be serving since 10-15 years. But when you look at their website registration records most of them are not even one year old. Ask yourself, will you trust on someone for this journey who lies and does false claims about themselves?

Its should be a common sense that any hajj and umrah agents who claims to be in the industry for very long span of time and claimed to have served thousands of pilgrims must have some good reviews from genuine clients on neutral review sites? before committing to any umrah service provider you must look for their reviews on google or independent review sites like trustpilot.com.
To validate your umrah agent you must check for their reviews. Here is one of the simple ways to do this, simply enter this search string in google “Company Name + Reviews”. For Example in our case you should check “Perfect Umrah Reviews” or “cheapestumrahpackages.co.uk Reviews”.
Even if you start your basic search by entering terms likes “Umrah Reviews” or “Umrah Packages Reviews”. To see what people have said about different agents. You can find some good agents by doing your search this way.
While checking reviews try to differentiate between original customer-written neutral reviews and mass-generated fake reviews with the help of marketing agencies. Some of the larger umrah travel agents have managed to hide their bad reviews from original customers under hundreds of fake reviews.
Always ask for contact details of driver who is supposed to pick you up from airport and make sure you talk to them at least once before you leave and make sure they will be there well in-time to pick you up. This is the most common mistake most pilgrims make, they assume that everything will be seamless at Jeddah or Madinah Airport but that is not the case mostly especially when you reach there not fully prepared and have all necessary contacts to reach out to incase anything didn’t went as expected in your Umrah journey.
By vendors we mean the Saudi Arabia’s hotels and transport companies, agents buy from to make a package. Customer that focusses only on price always ignore this fact that companies that is claiming to have cheapest prices often care less about the quality and the credibility of the saudi vendors. Because they always need to make cheapest package to grab more bookings. These agents care less about what happens to the customer once he lands in Saudi Arabia.
Fact of the matter is that most of Saudi vendor do have lot of issues. This is the reason we get to read stories like, when pilgrim landed at Jeddah no one showed up to pick them up from airport to hotels. Also when they reached hotels they found out there booking was not confirmed or it was changed to some-other hotel due to any odd reason or in some cases hotels was not at the standard of rating as promised by Umrah agent. To Perform umrah in total peaceful manner, please make this check.
