Haram Tours & Travels - Granada Hills, California

Aqsa Khan

It was great to work with Haram tours on our Umrah journey end of December 2023. From start to finish, they were accomodating. We were a big family and Mr. Javad guided us through the whole process. He was kind and listened to concerns my sister had when she went with the same group 5-6 years ago. I would say our flights could have been better planned to get jummah’s in both Makkah and Madinah and minimize stays. Overall the logistics were great. The guides, Brother Abdul Qadir in Madinah and Brother Ajmal in
Makkah were very humble and kind. The communication through whatsapp was great, logistics to and from places amazing, and overall accomodations the best. I would travel with them again.

We would highly recommend Haram tours & Travels for Umrah and ziyarats at Madinah and Makkah. They placed us in the best hotels, very close to Haram, wonderful coordination and a team consisting of professional and easy to work with staff. Prices are reasonable, although we never researched any further after the initial talk with brother Javad. He was efficient and quick! They made sure that we had a comfortable trip, listened to our requirements and arranged good internal travel with cordial cab drivers etc.
We highly recommend them and InshaAllah, go with them again for our next Umrah tour.

We took our trip to KSA for Umrah (Dec 01 - 09). Haram Tours, they arranged our trip so well, we did really enjoy. We did not face any problems any issue, Haram Tours managed flights/hotels/ground transportation etc. they put us in 2 excellent hotels ( Madinah & Makkah) were cool.
Breakfast were so so outstanding & free all those days.
Their transportation coordinator, Abdul Qadir, he managed all ground transportation so well, we did not face any problems everything on time while we were in KSA.

Mr. Jawad and Abdul Qadir and everyone at Haram Travel & Tours was great. Mr. Jawad coordinate our entire Umrah, booked the nicest hotels in Makkah and Medina. Mr. Abdul helped me set up everything from airport transfers in Makkah and Medina. And private guided tours in Makkah and Medina. The gentlemen who picked us up from the airport were on time, kind, knowledgeable. The tour guides are so knowledgeable and helpful. My mother and father were very impressed with the transportation services and recommend them to everyone. Thank you again Mr. Jawad, Mr. Abdul, Mr. Babar, Mr. Arslan and everyone who helped us.

Assalam o Alikum.
First of all thanks to almighty Allah who give us opportunity to perform Hajj in Year 2017 with my family (wife and two Kids 6 Years, 4Years). I am from Saint Louis, MO. Allah connect me to the Haram travel, and I don’t know about this company no one recommend me . I just Google and got 2/3 travelers information. I call them but they refuse to take us along with the kids. Then I call Haram and luckily Mr. Naveed Mirza talk to me. He is very nice humble man I ever talk. Allah helps me to confirm my Hajj trip with Haram Travels. I tell him to plan my Hajj trip and returning via Pakistan and he manage my trip as per my requirements.
I believe there is around TWO MILLION Muslim pilgrims from all over the world It’s a huge event so It is not possible to everything goes smoothly and under control. Yes we also face some problems during Hajj but Allah Help us and I directly call to Brother Naveed (some time using Whatsapp) and He response me If he missed my call he call back to me and resolve my issues. I am not saying that brother Javed and his team not help the people their but something must be beyond their hands.
I am satisfied Haram travel give us all necessary facilities in very reasonable price. Here I must say the Food was too good , the person who handled the food is very friendly with my kids. Makkah and Madina’s both hotels are good but personally I like Madina one it is very close to Masjid e nabwi.
Finally It was such a great experience. I already referred Haram Tours to my friends and relatives. I would like to again thank almighty Allah and Naved Bhai and your staff back in Madinah and Makka for making my trip so easy and enjoyable.
I highly recommend to use HARAM TRAVEL’s for Hajj.
My Suggestion for future Muslim pilgrims “Patience is your best friend”
Having in mind that there are over 2 million people that have come to perform Hajj and everyone is different, you should be patient and tolerant, especially when things don’t go as you wanted them to. Remember that Allah SWT is the best of planners and you are a guest in this house. It is all part of the journey.

DO NOT USE HARAM TOURS FOR HAJJ.
Alhamdulillah completed our Hajj this year. From what I gather, Haram Tours does well coordinating Umrah for independent type travelers. I do not recommend their services for Hajj. It is an entirely different beast and requires a more hands-on approach; which is not what we got from Mr. Billoo and his employees.

Briefly, the challenges we faced were
-Zero prior communication about logistics and how to do steps of Hajj.
-No consistent guide and/or imam. Mr. Billoo said he’d be there with us, and we only briefly glimpsed him one time to sort out a luggage issue.
-Extremely little guidance throughout steps of Hajj.
-Inconsistent communication/ being lied to about day-to-day logistics.
-Being lied to that we would go with a group of 40 people. Instead it was 7 of us, no communication between us, and we were at times merged with random other groups or left completely alone.
-Being lied to that we would have full transportation. When we were with a bigger group, we’d join their busses. Otherwise Mr. Billoo did not hire a bus to transport us when it was just 7 of us. There were times we were abandoned on our own to pay exorbitant amounts for taxis from mina to the haram and back.

Yes, Hajj is challenging and we expect our reward from Allah. However, Mr. Billoo charged us way too much for what he gave us, and wronged us many times. I write this review solely to speak out against injustice, and that it may save someone else from using his services.

Excellent service. Javad was very helpful, always available, and accommodating. He made our Umrah trip during Ramadan seamless and a trip we will cherish for the rest of our lives. All of his staff are very professional and kind. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.
