It is a profound blessing that Allah has chosen you, as a Muslim living in France, to answer the call of Umrah and stand before His sacred House. The Prophet (ﷺ) said that the people who come for Umrah and Hajj are the guests of Allah. He invited them, and they responded. France is home to one of the largest Muslim communities in Europe, and Tarteel Travel is honoured to serve its Muslims. Tarteel Travel is here to serve Muslims across France, making that journey smooth, spiritually enriching, and filled with barakah.
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "(The performance of) Umrah is an expiation for the sins committed (between it and the previous one). And the reward of Hajj Mabrur (the one accepted by Allah) is nothing except Paradise." (Sahih al-Bukhari 1773)
By Allah's grace, Tarteel Travel has become one of the most trusted Umrah providers for Muslims across North America and Europe. See what our travelers say on our Instagram and in our reviews.
Umrah is the lesser Islamic pilgrimage to Makkah al-Mukarramah, which can be performed at any time of year. Its essential acts are: entering Ihram (declared at the Miqat), performing Tawaf (seven circuits around the Ka'bah), walking Sa'i (seven times between Safa and Marwa), and completing with shaving or trimming the hair. Many Muslims describe Umrah as a life-changing experience, a turning point in their Deen and a fresh start in their relationship with Allah.
Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) is one of Europe's busiest hubs and the primary departure point for France, with excellent direct connections to Saudi Arabia. Paris Orly (ORY) and Lyon Saint-Exupery (LYS) also serve large Muslim populations. Marseille Provence Airport (MRS) serves southern France and its significant Muslim community, while Toulouse-Blagnac (TLS) covers the southwest.
Tarteel Travel has partnered with trusted airlines including Qatar Airways and Turkish Airlines to provide France Muslims with reliable, affordable flights to Saudi Arabia.
Tarteel Travel hand-selects premium accommodation in both Makkah and Madinah, close to the Haramain. Daily breakfast is included. Guided Ziyarah to Mount Uhud, Masjid Qubaa', and other sacred sites is included, as is the Haramain high-speed train between the two holy cities.
Alhamdulillaah, obtaining a Saudi Arabia visa has become significantly easier for residents of France. Tarteel Travel provides a one-year, multiple-entry tourist visa and handles all documentation on your behalf.
Our Makkah-born guides lead every group through the Umrah rituals step by step, in full accordance with the authentic Sunnah. First-time pilgrims are fully supported throughout.
How to Make the Best of Your Umrah Trip
Tarteel Travel's itineraries fly into Madinah first, which means your Miqat is Dhul Hulayfah (Abyar Ali), the Miqat of the people of Madinah and the furthest of all Miqat points from Makkah. Your Tarteel Travel guide will instruct you on exactly when and how to enter Ihram.
Tarteel Travel is founded and led by Mohamed Abu Rayan, who was born and raised in Makkah al-Mukarramah. His guides, with a lifetime of experience in the Haramain, bring authentic knowledge and spiritual depth no independent trip can replicate. Unique Sunnah experiences such as camel farm visits and drinking camel milk are part of every journey.
