Pilgrimage Glossary
Umrah & Hajj — Quick Reference
What is Umrah?
Umrah is a non-mandatory Islamic pilgrimage to Makkah, Saudi Arabia, that can be performed at any time of the year. Pilgrims enter ihram (a sacred state), perform tawaf (circumambulation) around the Kaaba inside Masjid al-Haram, complete sa'i (walking) between the hills of Safa and Marwa, and shave or trim the hair. From Darel, the standard Umrah trip lasts 10-14 days including travel and time in Madinah.
What is Hajj?
Hajj is the obligatory pilgrimage that every able Muslim must perform once in their lifetime. It takes place on specific days of the Islamic month of Dhu'l-Hijjah, with Hajj 2027 expected on 14 May–19 May 2027. From Darel, Hajj packages typically run 25-40 days and include all rites at Makkah, Mina, Arafat, and Muzdalifah, plus time in Madinah at Masjid an-Nabawi.

Traveller's Guide
Umrah, Hajj & Travel from Darel
Umrah & Hajj from Darel
Darel is a remote valley in Gilgit-Baltistan, and pilgrims from here are typically among the furthest from any city-based travel agency in the region. Al Bari Travel & Tours arranges Umrah and Hajj travel for pilgrims from Darel entirely over the phone and WhatsApp, so distance doesn't become a barrier to getting properly booked for such an important trip.
Flying to Saudi Arabia from Darel
Gilgit Airport is the nearest airport to Darel, but it is a domestic, weather-dependent airport rather than an international one. Pilgrims from Darel generally need to reach Islamabad for their international flight, and Al Bari factors this longer journey into the overall travel plan when arranging tickets, allowing enough buffer time for the road and connecting travel.
