Umrah from Indonesia
Indonesia is the largest Muslim country in the world, around 80% the population of Indonesia is Muslim. In general, the Indonesian Muslim community performs umrah to the Grand Mosque in Saudi Arabia through umrah travel / a travel company and travel agency that specializes in organizing Umrah travel services which are widely distributed in Indonesia.
They provide various facilities that make it very easy for the congregation so that the concentration of the congregation is only focused on the implementation of the Umrah pilgrimage at the Grand Mosque in Mecca and Medina.. Umrah travel works with hotels around the Grand Mosque to make it very convenient for the congregation. In general, the Umrah travel agency determines several Umrah packages and the minimums are 9 day trip from Indonesia to Saudi Arabia and back to Indonesia again.
