Makkah Essentials Tour with optional Lunch

We begin the day with a visit to Jabal Al Rahmah (Mount of Mercy) in the valley of Arafat, where Prophet Muhammad (SAW) delivered his final sermon. On the 9th of Dhul Hijjah, pilgrims gather here for prayer, dhikr, and seeking forgiveness from Allah(SWT). We then pass through Mina, the world’s largest tented city, accommodating up to 3 million pilgrims during Hajj and remaining deserted outside the season. Mina is also where Prophet Ibrahim was commanded to sacrifice his son Ismail. The journey continues to Jabal Al Nour (Mount Hira), about two miles from the Ka’bah, home to the Cave of Hira where the first revelation of the Holy Quran was received in Ramadan 610 CE. Known as the Mountain of Light, it holds great significance. Lunch will be served at a local restaurant. The tour includes passing through the Jamarat area and Muzdalifah, visits to Masjid Al-Jinn, Masjid Al-Fath, and Masjid Al-Khaif, viewing Jabal Al-Thawr, and a brief stop at old cemeteries before returning to the hotel.
