RIYADH, April 1, 2025 – Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has launched this year’s Hajj packages for citizens and residents of the Kingdom, now available for booking via the Nusuk app and its dedicated online portal.


In line with Saudi Arabia’s efforts to broaden access to the annual pilgrimage, the ministry is offering Hajj packages with priority booking for first-time pilgrims, as reported by the Saudi Press Agency.


Pilgrims must have completed the required meningitis vaccination to access the packages, with appointments available through the Sehhaty app.


The Nusuk platform provides a user-friendly experience, allowing pilgrims to browse and book packages with various payment options.


Additionally, the Nusuk app lets pilgrims purchase essential Hajj items like ihram clothing and personal necessities, and even book flight tickets as part of their packages, simplifying the entire pilgrimage process.


Expressing excitement, Arif Anwar, an Alkhobar resident, told Arab News: “This is great news. I was waiting for it. Now, I can book via Nusuk for myself and my family, with priority given to those who have not yet performed Hajj, ensuring more Muslims can fulfill this important pilgrimage.”


Abdulrahman Qahtani, a Jeddah native, added: “I’m excited for this opportunity. I’ll apply via Nusuk to perform Hajj, one of the five pillars of Islam.”


Wissam Dekmak, a Lebanese resident in Riyadh, said: “It’s exciting news for all residents, allowing us to plan and book Hajj in advance. The Nusuk app makes the process easier and prioritizes those who haven’t experienced Hajj.”



Hajj packages are available through the electronic portal at masar.nusuk.sa/individuals/local-pilgrims.


“We offer a variety of Hajj packages from authorized service providers to ensure a smooth experience,” according to the Nusuk portal.


The first package starts at SR8,092 ($2,157) for shared accommodation at the Al-Diyafah camp in Mina. The second package, priced at SR10,366, provides an upgraded camp with higher-quality services.


The third package costs SR13,150 for accommodation in the six towers in Mina, near the Jamarat bridge. The fourth package, Kidana Al-Wadi Towers, is valued at SR12,537, offering luxurious accommodations with modern facilities and meals.


This launch is part of the broader digital transformation of the Hajj experience, with the Nusuk platform serving as a comprehensive digital guide.


For inquiries, the ministry provides support through the Pilgrims’ Care Center at 1966 (24/7) or the beneficiary care account on X (@MOHU_Care).
