Highlights
  • Al Madinah Province - Madinah Munawwarah or Medina al-Munawwarah (المدينة المنورة ) is the second most holy city for Muslims because there is Masjid-e- Nabawi where Muhammad’s tomb is located.
    Medina is 210 miles (340 km) north of Mecca and about 120 miles (190 km) from the Red Sea coast.
    After picking you from your Selecting location, our tour will start from Masjid-e-Quba, the first mosque built by Muslims.
  • Al Masjid an Nabawi - Masjid-e-Nabwi is the masjid (mosque) established by the Prophet (ﺣ) upon his migration to Madinah. It is the second most revered masjid in Islam and the second largest in the world, after Masjid al-Haram in Makkah.
  • Masjid Al Qiblatayn - The Masjid al-Qiblatayn is a mosque in Medina that is historically important for Muslims as the place where, after the Islamic Nabi Muhammad received the command to change the Qiblah from Jerusalem to Mecca, the entire congregation led by a companion changed direction in prayer.
  • Masjid Quba - The Masjid Quba is the first mosque built by the Muslims. The mosque is a mosque in the outlying environs of Medina, Saudi Arabia. Initially, the mosque was built 6 kilometers off Medina in the village of Quba, before Medina got expanded to include this village.
  • Jannatul Baqi - Jannatul Baqi (Garden of Heaven) is the main cemetery of Madinah. Buried here are many members of the Prophet’s (ﺣ) close family, around ten thousand of his companions (Sahabah) and many prominent, pious personalities.
  • Grave Of Hamzah - Located in the Shuhada Martyrs District in front of the iconic Uhad Mt, lays the blessed grave of Hamzah the Uncle of the Prophet Muhammad, also known as the Masters of Martyrs and Lion of Islam. ‘The eye cries for Hamzah but the eyes of Hamzah don’t’.
  • Mount Uhud - This is a section of Mount Uhud, in front of which the second battle in Islam (the Battle of Uhud) took place in 3 AH. Of this mountain, the Prophet (ﺣ) declared, “This mountain loves us and we love it.” [Muslim]

Our Next Attraction will be Garden of Salman Farsi: The land on which the Prophet Muhammad (ﺣ) planted three hundred date palms to free Salman Farsi (may Allah be pleased with him) from slavery. It is located close to Masjid Quba.

  • Masjid Al Ghamamah - This masjid, located about 300m south-west of Masjid-e-Nabwi is known as Masjid Ghamama. It is built on the site where the Prophet (ﺣ) performed the Eid salah during the last years of his life.

  • Abu Bakar Masjed - Located very near to Gate 6 of Masjid e Nababi and Masjid Al Ghamamah. This is a single dome mosque and smaller one

  • Masjid Jummah - Masjid Jummah, on the boundary of Madinah, marks the site where the Prophet (ﺣ) led the first Jummah salah, shortly after his Hijrah (migration) from Makkah. It is about 2.5 km from Masjid-e-Nabwi.
    Approximately one hundred Muslims participated in this first Jummah salah. Amongst them were the Prophet’s (ﺣ) relatives from Bani an-Najjar who had come to meet him and some from Bani Amr who had escorted him from Quba.
    After performing the Friday prayer, the Prophet (ﺣ) mounted Qaswa (his camel) and set off for the city of Madinah.

  • The Seven Mosques - The Seven Mosques or Sab’u Masajid is a complex of six small historic and often visited mosques in the city of Medina, Saudi Arabia. The complex consists of six mosques in spite of the name “Sabah” means “seven”, because it included the Masjid al-Qiblatayn originally.

  • Medina - After Garden of Salman Farsi, our Tour ends and our driver will drop off to your selected location within Madina city.

Thank you! - The tour guide was a very nice guy. Despite his wesk English, he tried to explain and give us time to pray and see around. He was also trying to make us happy with stories in the car.

It's was amazing - Visiting Madina Haram was the best part of my life which I can't express in word. To pray in the Rowda masjid need to take an appointment through nusuk app. We had taken an appointment and we got the opportunity to enter and pray.

Madinah Ziyarat - Driver was 30 min late. Replacement driver arrived with an untidy car smaller car. The driver was knowledgeable and engaging and this made the trip pleasurable. We lost the driver on the last part of the trip and after waiting 30min he turned up. We got some good pictures and in the end enjoyed the the tour.

Average at best - Tour guide was nice but not as informative as we would have liked. also never got to see the last 3 places on tour including the garden of Salman Al Farsi. very disappointed about that especially since our tour didn't even last full 2 hrs and guide seemed to be rushed in the end. next time I would rather take a taxi and see the places i want to see.

VERY POOR COMMUNICATION & IGNORED RESERVATION TIME - Booked 1 month in advance for a 3pm slot as we were in Madinah for 1 day/ One day before arrival they sent us message the driver will pick us up from hotel 8am. I messaged them back the tour is booked for 3pm and they kept on telling me the car I booked for is not available. I was in Madinah for 1 day and they made my visit stressful as I did not know if my tour was going ahead or cancelled. They are lucky I did not leave 1 star review for the headache caused!!

Kindly do better - The driver could not speak English, hardly explained as a tour guide must do because of language barrier, he just reached destination parked and sat in the car talking on his phone and let us wonder about on our own or ask cleaners to explain in detail..

Would not recommend. Terrible experience. - I would not recommend this to anyone. I requested for English speaking driver and they sent me someone who speaks Urdu which I don’t know how to speak at all. Also, the driver came over an hour late. I didn’t understand what he was saying and didn’t enjoy the tour at all.
