Shifting Packages provide pilgrims with an accommodation located in close proximity to the Sacred Mashair sites during the Hajj period, ensuring both comfort in accommodation and ease of access to their belongings. Additionally, these packages offer a second accommodation in Makkah, before or after the Hajj period, typically situated near Al-Masjid Al-Haram, facilitating convenient access for prayers.
Non-Shifting packages provide pilgrims with a single accommodation throughout their stay in Makkah, both before and after performing the Hajj rituals at the Sacred Mashair sites. This adds a level of convenience to pilgrims as they are not required to relocate during their stay in Makkah.
Accommodations included in packages are selected to cater to the diverse preferences of pilgrims. The options vary between 5-Star hotels, providing the highest level of luxury and comfort, 4-Star hotels that balance luxury with practicality, and 3-Star hotels and residential buildings that offer essential services during pilgrim stay, suited for those seeking a more extended and relatively affordable experience.
Makkah Accommodation: Packages differ by offering pilgrims either a single accommodation in Makkah both before and after the Hajj period (Non-Shifting) or the flexibility to switch accommodations in Makkah (Shifting) before or after the Hajj period.
Packages and their corresponding prices are tailored based on duration, with a minimum of 6 days for Mashair packages, 10 days for Non-Shifting packages and 14 days for Shifting packages. Service providers may offer extended stays in their packages to provide pilgrims with options that cater to their preferences.
These various factors led to the introduction of 2 distinct categories for pilgrims this year, addressing their diverse needs and enhancing their overall experience.
In addition to the previously outlined main factors, there are additional considerations that affect the selection and differentiation of Hajj packages.
To enable pilgrims to compare different accommodations and consider their proximity to Al-Masjid Al-Haram and Sacred Mashair sites, Makkah has been subdivided into distinct zones, each with unique characteristics to cater to different pilgrims’ preferences.
This zone is located in very close proximity to Al-Masjid Al-Haram, usually overlooking its yards, offering pilgrims the ease of access within walking distance.
This zone encompasses the area surrounding Zone A, providing proximity to Al-Masjid Al-Haram but at a slightly greater distance compared to Zone A. While the distance to Al-Masjid Al-Haram is still walkable, certain accommodations also offer pilgrims shuttle services to Al-Masjid Al-Haram during prayer times for added convenience.
This zone encompasses the largest area of Makkah, though it is not within walking distance from Al-Masjid Al-Haram or the Sacred Mashair sites. However, it offers a variety of accommodations, some of which provide shuttle services to Al-Masjid Al-Haram during prayer times.
This zone is located in close proximity to the Sacred Mashair sites, providing pilgrims with ease of access to their accommodations during their stay in Mina.

The distance from Makkah to Madinah is approximately 450 km, a journey that typically takes up to 9 hours by bus, the default mode of transportation in most packages. These buses are generally equipped with modern features, prioritizing the comfort and convenience of pilgrims throughout the long trip.
Moreover, service providers may opt for alternative means of transportation between cities, including domestic flights or Haramain High Speed Railway. These upgraded alternatives not only ensure a comfortable journey but also adhere to a precise schedule, enhancing the overall travel experience for pilgrims moving between Makkah and Madinah.

A “shifting Hajj package” typically refers to a type of Hajj package where the pilgrims’ accommodation changes during their stay. This usually means that pilgrims will be accommodated in different locations at different stages of the Hajj journey. For example, pilgrims might stay in hotels in Makkah and then move to tents in Mina during the days of Hajj.
This type of package is designed to optimize logistics and manage the large influx of pilgrims during the Hajj season. It often helps in providing better services and ensuring that pilgrims can perform their rituals comfortably and efficiently.
A “non-shifting Hajj package” refers to a type of Hajj package where the pilgrims’ accommodation remains constant throughout their stay. This means that pilgrims stay in the same hotel or accommodation for the entire duration of their Hajj pilgrimage, without moving between different locations.
Advantages of a Non-Shifting Hajj Package Convenience: Pilgrims do not have to pack and move their belongings multiple times, making the journey more comfortable.
Stability: Staying in one place provides a sense of stability and familiarity, which can be comforting, especially for elderly or first-time pilgrims.
Less Stress: Reduces the logistical stress of moving between different accommodations during the pilgrimage.
Better Services: Continuous stay in one place often means better access to consistent services and facilities.
Disadvantages of a Non-Shifting Hajj Package
Cost: Non-shifting packages are usually more expensive due to the convenience and consistent services provided.
Distance: Depending on the location of the accommodation, it might be farther from certain Hajj sites, potentially requiring longer travel times to perform rituals.
Availability: Non-shifting packages may have limited availability, especially during peak Hajj seasons, making them harder to book.
No, you cannot do Hajj without a package. You have to choose a package and make a successful payment. After that, you will receive the visa for Hajj.
Hajj packages can be quite expensive due to several factors that contribute to the overall cost. Here are some key reasons why Hajj packages are so costly:
1. Accommodation Costs During Hajj, the demand for accommodation in Makkah and Madinah is extremely high. Hotels and other lodging facilities increase their prices significantly due to this high demand. Additionally, the cost of providing comfortable and convenient lodging for pilgrims adds to the overall package price.
2. Transportation Expenses The logistics of transporting millions of pilgrims to various Hajj sites, including Mina, Arafat, and Muzdalifah, require extensive planning and resources. Transportation costs, including buses and other means of travel, contribute significantly to the cost of Hajj packages.
3. Services and Amenities Hajj packages often include various services and amenities to ensure the well-being and comfort of pilgrims. This includes meals, guided tours, medical services, and other support services. The cost of providing these services is factored into the package price.
4. Administrative and Visa Fees There are administrative costs associated with organizing and managing Hajj trips, including visa processing fees, administrative charges, and other regulatory expenses imposed by the authorities. These fees contribute to the overall cost of the Hajj package.
5. Seasonal Demand Hajj occurs during a specific period, leading to a peak season in the travel industry. The high demand for flights, accommodations, and other services during this period results in higher prices, which are reflected in the cost of Hajj packages.
6. Quality and Safety Standards Ensuring the safety and well-being of pilgrims is a top priority. High-quality services, strict safety measures, and adherence to health regulations add to the operational costs. These measures are necessary to provide a safe and comfortable pilgrimage experience.
