I would recommend Barket Travels from Dewsbury. www.barket.co.uk

I went with them in April this year. They are very reliable

however, whoever you decide to go with, make sure thay are ATOL protected and book early


The reason why I mention ATOL is that I got stung in December with a company called Al Naqshabandi travels. they failed to take many people and it took 8 months to get our money back from them. They still owe a lot of people a lot of money and they have trading standards after them. They advertised as ATOL protected but when we later checked, their license expired over a year ago !!!!

So even if a company advertises as ATOL protected, make sure that their ATOL number is current and valid (which you can check by going to ATOLS website)


As I have said, Barket Travel are VERY good from personal experience and they are a MAIN agent who have been established for years and they are ATOL protected.


Also look at www.yourtravleshop.com who I know, from family and friends, are also very good (they are based in Bolton).

I have used Moti Hajj and Umrah In Leicester as well. their standard packages are reasonably priced and the service is pretty ok. They are also a MAIN agent who have been around for years.


All 3 groups are ideal if you are especially going with family as in Ramadhan and Hajj they tend to have their own cooks flown in so you dont have to worry about going out to eat anywhere (ideal for the elderly who will find it difficult to travel out to eat at busy times)

Jazakallah for the advice.

I went for hajj with barket and their service was ok. This was a couple of years ago.

I was thinking of going with another group this time.
