For pilgrims searching for an Umrah package from New York, the most common questions are: "How much does an Umrah package from New York cost?" and "What's the best Umrah package from New York?" This guide breaks down all four Umrah packages from New York 2026–2027 — complete with travel dates and per-person USD pricing across Quad, Triple, and Double sharing, so you can find the most affordable Umrah trip from New York for your family or group.
What Is Umrah?
Umrah is the lesser pilgrimage to Makkah — unlike Hajj, it can be performed at any time of the year. It involves entering the sacred state of Ihram, performing Tawaf (seven circuits around the Ka'bah), completing Sa'i (walking between Safa and Marwa), and cutting or shaving the hair. While not obligatory, Umrah carries immense spiritual reward — the Prophet ﷺ described Umrah as an expiation for the sins committed since one's previous Umrah (narrated in Sahih al-Bukhari 1773). For pilgrims from New York, Amax Travel handles the full journey so you can focus on your ibadah, not logistics.
Umrah Package Options from New York — Quad, Triple & Double Sharing
Looking for a cheap, affordable or family Umrah package from New York? All four departures use 5-star hotels, so the price you pay depends on the departure date and how many people share your room. These are the lowest current prices per person:
Quad Sharing
The most affordable Umrah package from New York — ideal for families and larger groups.
Triple Sharing
A little more space per person, still shared with family or friends.
Double Sharing
The most privacy and comfort for couples and travelling pairs.

What US Citizens Need
A valid passport (confirm validity and blank-page requirements with our team), a recent passport-style photograph, an original meningitis certificate, and any currently required health documentation (Moderna, Pfizer, or Johnson & Johnson).
What Green Card Holders Need
The same documentation as above, plus a colored copy of both sides of your Green Card. Mahram documentation may also apply, depending on current Saudi visa rules for your age and nationality.
Full document checklist:
- Passport: Valid for the period required by the current Saudi entry/visa rules; confirm passport validity and blank-page requirements with our team before booking.
- Photographs: A recent passport-style photograph if required for your current visa route.
- Green card copy: Permanent residents should submit a colored copy of both sides.
