Fantastic experience: For the people that are looking for a genuine, reliable, trustworthy, caring, understanding travel agent I would not recommend anyone else.This is the best travel agent you can wish for. 24/7 help, quick response and always asking if everything is okay and if you need help on a daily basis whilst you are abroad , they will go above and beyond to look after you. Cannot fault them even one tiny bit, definitely will be using them again. Thank you for making my first Umrah the best and unforgettable experience. Thank you very much.

Mohammed Naeem Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I recently booked a two-week Umrah package with AR TRAVELS, and they exceeded all expectations! They tailored the package perfectly to suit my needs and budget, including direct flights, luxurious 5-star hotels, smooth transfers, and well-organized ziyarahs. ✈️ What really impressed me was their exceptional service and care throughout my journey. They assigned me a dedicated contact person for any issues (though I never had any!), and they kept in touch every step of the way—from the UK to Makkah, Madinah, and back. Everything went smoothly, making my spiritual journey stress-free and truly memorable. If you’re looking for a reliable and professional travel service, I highly recommend AR TRAVELS. Thank you for making this experience so special! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fantastic experience: To be honest I've been thinking of a word to describe my first umrah trip with AR Travel , and the only word that keeps coming to mind is .... AMAZING, truly amazing, this is truly a 5 star experience, I honestly thought prior to leaving the uk it's going to be up and down, some disappointment here and there, NAH , absolutely just about perfection, the hotel anjum is perfect in both location and quality, and then in madina we get changed from our original hotel to the intercontinental (which I know a lot about stayed in many of them over the years) , every location is minute's away from where you need to be, I came with my wife whos done umrah 4 times and haj once , and she says this trip is amazing, she now wants to come with our youngest son next ramadan inshallah, SHOOKRAN wasib and ehsan , shookran.

Haroon Mahboob Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: My family and i travelled to Saudi Arabia for pilgrimage last month and we couldn’t ask for a better service. The staff went out of their way to make sure everything was taken care of. From the moment we landed, we had someone waiting at the airport to take us to our hotel where we were greeted by a member of AR Travels who had already checked us in. The excursions were agreed and arranged on dates that we said, the transfers were perfect and someone was always on hand for any issues we might experience. He even gave us a local sim card to use whilst we were there. Looking forward to using them again next year and i’ve been telling all of my friends and family how easy they made everything.

Naziar Yaseen Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had used AR Travel and Tours based on a recommendation, and I’m truly pleased that I did. The service provided is second to none. Ali, who dealt with my application for a Nadra card, was very professional, prompt, efficient and extremely pleasant. He completed my form all at once, and kept me posted at all times up until its delivery. No hiccups, no fuss, just a first class service all in all. I will surely be using them again for their services. Thank you AR Travel.

S Majid Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing service from start to finish whilst booking our Umrah package which was tailor made to my family.

Yashin Abdulla Published on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Went to hujj in 2018 with a r travels. I booked with faraz in dewsbury. From the first meeting till i came bk every person representing A R travels were professional, supportive and informative. I went alone so can imagine it being nerve racking. The packages on offer all extremely value for money, hotels are close to both harams and were all inclusive. I cannot say how happy i am that i chose them. On the plus sidethe package that i chose was non shifting. I cannot wait to book again. Highly recommended

Iram Safdar Published on Google 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Having been completely let down by a bunch of scammers online I turned to AR travels to renew my NICOP (nadra) card. The service was quick effecient and very professional. The staff are extremely friendly and understanding. I have received my card today as promised within the time frame I requested. Anyone wanting to renew a nadra card DO NOT do this online as I lost my money and identifiable documents without being able to contact the company after.

Twin Cam Published on Google 6 years ago

Negative experience: Booked my Hajj journey with AR Travel, and I must admit the support i received from our group leader was non-existent. There was no pre-Hajj seminar, lack of communication through out the journey and the Accommodation in Makkah was below living standard, some people reported cockroach in their rooms. There were family members with physical disability and waiting for the lifts for long time, their were not enough lifts to accommodate the shear volume of people in the hotel. Since AR had number of agents the only and most helpful person 'Qasim' went the extra mile not just for me but all the other group members. Since then I booked Umrah tickets purely on the bases that Qasim will be taking the group as all the other staff lack professionalism, i have now been updated that Qasim no longer worked for AR Travel and another staff member will be leading the group. I'd suggest booking elsewhere.

Kamal Uddin Published on Google 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been here twice for two different services and the customer service has been exceptional. The team go above and beyond to get the best rates. I booked emergency tickets and I also exchanged money, both transactions were done very smoothly and swiftly. Will defo recommend and will defo be coming here again for all my travel needs. Great service by WASAB who always looks after me. Thanks and keep up the great work.

Saad Published on Google 7 years ago

Negative experience: Bad. To make things short for people who want a quick review: If you are buying ONLY tickets, use AR Travel. IF you are buying a "service" or a "package", look elsewhere, you will be disappointed. So, First day we are their, we leave the Airport, wander around for 1 HOUR due to not knowing where the bus is, as were the other people in our group. Leader not there as promised. Finally we find the bus, when I say find, I mean a random guy walked up to us asking if we are with AR Travel when half the place was empty. We get onto the bus. Then, there is a 2 hour wait for other people to get onto the bus. At this point its Fajr. Funny thing is, we were given a SIM Card with a number, nobody answered the phone, at all. In fact, we ran out of credit calling the group-leader. So we get dropped of after a 3 hour drive to our Hotel at Mecca, the 3 hour wait was the only honest time frame we were give amongst the other times we were falsely given. We went to rest, as did everyone else; 1 Hour later we get a call saying we should be ready for Umrah in 1 Hour. We have endured a 7 hour total flight, with 3 hours wait at Turkey airport, with a 3 hour delay with the coach and a 3 hour coach ride, totalling 16 Hours travel and our (experienced) group leader wants us to complete Umrah with 1 Hour rest? Nobody went as a group for Umrah, everyone went themselves. What our group leader should of had done, is that he should of arranged a later time for us to go on Umrah if nobody was going. But of course, this did not happen. Come Wednesday, we are told to get up at 7 AM for Ziyarat. Finally I'm thinking we would get something we had paid for. Again, wrong. The guide only spoke Urdu, I am more Proficient in English as are other members of the group (especially the kids) so the guide was unable to answer basic questions and we were left with their own assumptions. Our group leader was unable to help either. What's funny is, we were told to get up at 7AM as the Ziyarat would take all day up till Evening to complete. We were back 3 Hours later at 10 AM. We later found out that there are 12 Ziyarat out of which we completed only 4. So that service too was left unprovided. We then were told we would go to Madina on Sunday/Monday, so we went. The transport was really bad. It was small, noisy and very uncomfortable with mosquitoes at the rear etc, no coach. Our luggage was damaged as it was placed with ropes on the top of the Van. Our luggage is thrown at Airports, doesn't get damaged, but at a Road trip it gets damaged. The handle of our suitcase also broke so we had to purchase a new one at Madina. We were told that the hotels at Madina would be better than Mecca, false. There was not even enough space for the prayer matt in the room! The rooms were 1/2 of the rooms at Mecca. We went on the Second Ziyarat, same Van we came to Madina in. Apart from the disappointment, we had a great time, we urge anyone who hasn't been to go on Umrah (not with these guys tho, you'd be mad to go with them) Lots of promises made, but not much provided. The only thing they did right was provide the tickets and Visas. Other stuff: Journey to Madina to the Airport would be 1 Hour 30 Mins (Turned out to be 3+ hours) Journey from Mecca to Madina would be 3-4 hours (Turned out to be 6 Hours) Poor. (Character level exceeded) Avoid these guys and don't listen to their lies.

Arfan Ali Published on Google 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best experience ever always aim to please I went with this company over ten years ago and I was scared thinking how am to do this my Umrah which is very important in a Muslims life time. Then when I met Hajji Saab he helped me through the full experience And now I go every year through them and never had any issues I did my Haji with Hajji Saab Wouldn’t go to anyone Ells Highly recommended Trust me value for money and experience is most important which AR Travel has got a lot of. Keep me in your prayers I hope this helps you decide Ameen
