Tourist visa questions
Can I combine tourism with Umrah?
Yes, on a Saudi tourist visa. It is multiple-entry, valid for a year with stays of up to 90 days, and lets you visit other Saudi cities before or after Umrah. We arrange it alongside your package.
What is the difference between an Umrah visa and a Saudi tourist visa?
The Umrah visa is single-purpose and valid for 30 days from entry. The tourist visa is multiple-entry, valid for a year with stays of up to 90 days, and lets you perform Umrah as well as travel elsewhere in the country.
