You have the option of driving in your own car as well. Go to the certified agents for the Umrah visa. I think Saudi will start issuing visas may be by next week at the earliest or by the end of the month.

if you have kids...i would advise travelling by air....but i have freinds who have travelled by bus too.

they ahve good hotels around the haraam sharif now....so what you need to do is visit one of the travel agents who arrange for this.i know there is one before jaidah flyover (if you are coming from mannai r/a)...its on you right side next to a internet cafe.

they make the whole packahe for you,incl visas.

visa takes time.

happy heart

drive safe because someone is waiting for you at home
