ISTANBUL, TURKIYE - May 19, 2025 - Something remarkable is happening in the Muslim world: more people than ever before are traveling to perform Umrah, the sacred pilgrimage to Mecca that can be completed at any time of the year.
While Hajj continues to draw global attention for its scale and ritual, Umrah is quietly making history of its own—becoming a year-round spiritual priority for millions.
And behind the scenes, one travel agency in Istanbul is helping lead the charge.
Inanç Travel Agency (also known as Inanç Tur) has spent the last 20 years building a reputation for premium Umrah packages and exceptional service. Now, as international demand soars—especially from the United States—Inanç is stepping into the global spotlight.
“The sacred journey should be peaceful, not chaotic,” says a company spokesperson. “We’ve designed our Umrah programs to honor both the spiritual mission and the personal comfort of every traveler.”
The Umrah Boom
Saudi officials have reported year-over-year increases in Umrah traffic, with nearly 13 million international pilgrims entering the kingdom in the past year alone. Airlines and hospitality chains are racing to accommodate the surge.
But according to Inanç Travel, this isn’t just about numbers—it’s about meaning.
“Many Muslims view Umrah not as a once-in-a-lifetime trip, but as a recurring spiritual touchstone,” says the agency. “People are hungry for peace, connection, and forgiveness in a world that often feels upside-down.”
And while Umrah can be deeply personal, it’s also become increasingly global. U.S.-based Muslims, in particular, are seeking more structured, hassle-free ways to make the journey. That’s where Inanç shines.
A New Standard in Faith-Based Travel
Unlike low-cost operators that promise the bare minimum, Inanç Travel specializes in five-star Umrah experiences. Their top-tier packages feature:
-
Luxury stays at premier hotels like the Fairmont Makkah Clock Royal Tower and Anwar Al Madinah Movenpick
-
Direct Turkish Airlines flights with weekly guaranteed departures
-
In-house religious guides and bilingual support staff
-
Custom private itineraries for families, couples, and groups
-
Optional Istanbul and cultural tour add-ons for a blended faith-and-history experience
Prices range from $1,850 to $2,395, depending on hotel and travel dates. And unlike many agencies, what you see is what you get.
“We don’t do bait-and-switch pricing,” the agency says. “Our clients deserve honesty and excellence from start to finish.”
The company’s motto, “Quality isn’t a luxury — it’s our standard,” isn’t just marketing speak. It’s a direct shot at an industry where budget packages often leave pilgrims stressed, stranded, or underserved.
Istanbul to Mecca: A Spiritual Gateway
Inanç’s home base in Istanbul offers another advantage: a built-in layover experience that bridges cultures. Pilgrims can start their journey by exploring Ottoman mosques, Islamic heritage sites, and vibrant Turkish bazaars before continuing on to Saudi Arabia.
For U.S. Muslims, especially those visiting the region for the first time, this adds meaningful context to their pilgrimage.
Think of it like a Catholic visiting the Vatican before heading to Lourdes—or a Christian pilgrim stopping in Jerusalem en route to Bethlehem. It's not required, but it's unforgettable.
Serving U.S. Travelers, the Right Way
With demand from North America rising fast, Inanç Travel has focused on streamlining the experience for Americans. Their English-language booking portal at inanctur.com.tr/en offers real-time departure dates, clear package options, and instant customer service.
They’ve also launched U.S.-specific packages that align with school breaks and holiday travel windows, making it easier for families to plan ahead.
“American Muslims have unique needs,” says Inanç’s leadership team. “They want clarity, they want comfort, and they want someone who actually picks up the phone. That’s exactly what we offer.”
The Trusted Name in Umrah Travel
With over 28,000 satisfied customers, Inanç Travel isn’t just another agency—it’s a faith-based institution that puts integrity first.
For those planning Umrah from the U.S. in 2025 or 2026, Inanç offers more than a ticket and a hotel—it offers peace of mind, a sense of purpose, and a journey that feels sacred from start to finish.
