It is a profound blessing that Allah has chosen you, as a Muslim living in Hamilton, 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. Tarteel Travel is here to serve the Muslim community of Hamilton, making that journey smooth, spiritually uplifting, and filled with barakah at every step.
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. 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 (a state of sacred purity and sincere intention, declared at the Miqat), performing Tawaf (seven circuits around the Ka'bah), walking Sa'i (seven times between the hills of Safa and Marwa), and completing with shaving or trimming of the hair. Umrah is a deeply beloved Sunnah and a powerful means of spiritual renewal.
Hamilton Muslims have two excellent departure options. John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport (YHM) serves the city directly, and Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is also easily accessible, approximately 45-60 minutes away, offering a wider range of international flights. Tarteel Travel will coordinate your departure from whichever airport works best for you.
Tarteel Travel has partnered with trusted airlines including Qatar Airways and Turkish Airlines to provide Hamilton Muslims with reliable, competitively priced flights to Saudi Arabia.
Tarteel Travel carefully selects premium accommodation in both Makkah and Madinah, keeping you as close to the Haramain as possible so your time in the sacred cities is devoted entirely to ibadah. Daily breakfast is included at both properties.
Our experienced 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
Alhamdulillaah, obtaining a Saudi Arabia visa has become much easier for Canadian Muslims.

Tarteel Travel handles all documentation on your behalf.

The Miqat is the sacred boundary at which every Umrah pilgrim must enter the state of Ihram before proceeding toward Makkah. Tarteel Travel's itineraries fly into Madinah first, which means your Miqat is Dhul Hulayfah (Abyar Ali). This is the Miqat of the people of Madinah, and the furthest of all the Miqat points from Makkah. Your Tarteel Travel guide will instruct you on exactly when and how to enter Ihram.
Tarteel Travel is led by Mohamed Abu Rayan, who was born and raised in Makkah al-Mukarramah. His team of guides, all with a lifetime of experience in the Haramain, bring authentic knowledge and spiritual depth that no independent trip can replicate.
