The Best Experience

Assalaam Alaikum! Sadiq Sahib Got back from our Umrah trip on 11/5/24 and wanted to let you know that from the beginning of the trip to the return back to USA, our experience was excellent. Upon our arrival at Madinah, our transport was waiting as planned and during our stay the hotel facilities and services were excellent during our stay. Our transport from Madinah to Makkah was as arranged & the local contact Mr. Jawed was very cooperative to accomodate our request for a change in our travel time. Ziarat arrangements were excellent with a very cooperative and informative Mufti Osama. Our experience in Makkah was very similar, and want to thank you for the excellent arrangements and services provided. We will InshaAllah! look towards you for our any future travel plans and highly recommend that anyone planning Umrah/Hajj or any trips should definitely utilize the excellent services provided that we experienced.

The Best Experience

Me and my family along with my senior parents used Discount Travel to go to Spain, and then Umrah. Our entire trip was excellent right down to all the details. We had our own personal tour guide in Spain, with our own personal car to take us to all the historic sites. In addition to that the guide took us to zabiha halal places to eat. Our hotel was Five Star accommodation with breakfast included. All transportation was included, with a 9 passenger van for comfort and space for all of our luggage. We went from Spain to Umrah, and every detail was planned just as we wanted. There was a day to take us for Ziarath in both Medina and Mecca. The Mufti's that took us were excellent, that spoke both English and Urdu. They helped accommodate my dad who needed a wheel chair. I have always used Discount Travel, and I will continue to do so In shaa Allah. It was the best experience we had as a family.

Comfortable Experience

I have had the privilege of performing Hajj with Discount Travel as well as recently an Umrah trip and both were a major success for my family. Sadiq Hussain, the group leader(s), and the group scholar(s) worked as one team to ensure smooth transitions between every place we traveled. Sadiq made sure he was available anytime there were questions and hosted a seminar before the travel to help get people ready for the journey. He has deep insights in both cities and provides clean and comfortable experience and accommodations for all the Hujjaj he hosts. Both hotels in Medina and Mecca were excellent and would gladly stay at them again. The breakfast buffet in both were filled with many options and was a great way to recharge and reconnect with the group each day. The ziyarrah trips in Madinah and Mecca were well thought out visiting important holy sites in the vicinity of both cities. There was also a stop at a beautiful date orchard that had delicious and amazing selection. The buses were provided and easy for the group to stay together and bond during both trips. The goal of having a personal connection as well as members of the family including our children connect with Allah (SWT) and have deeper love for Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was achieved both times. I’m very grateful to have been invited by Allah (SWT) to take both journeys and look forward to gladly go again (hopefully sooner than later) with Discount Travel! Sincerely,

Earlier this year, I chose to go for my first Umrah through Discount Travel after hearing good things about them. The process started with getting our paperwork in order and everything went really smoothly. They took care of the visas and helped me set up my appointments needed to visit Rawdah in Madina before we left. After we landed in Saudi Arabia, our entire trip was very well planned end to end. From hotel arrangements, transportation, visiting religiously significant sites to logistics of the trip, everything was taken care of. Their team and group leader made sure they communicated everything with us and I was kept informed throughout the trip. Each day was well planned where no minute was wasted. It was a good mixture of educational activities/trips and personal ibadah that made sure we made the best use of our time. I would highly recommend Discount Travel. JazakAllah!

Fully Satisfied

​Alhamdulillah, We have completed our Umrah successfully and come back to home safely.  We got our services (Hotel, Transport) as per our requirements.  Some cases it  takes time to get the transport, but it is Ok because of the  high traffic (specially in Mecca). Only Jeddah Hotel location / quality was not as good as our requirements but it was OK because we stayed there only few hours. Overall me and my family are fully satisfied. Thanks for your continuous support. JazakAllah Khair

Just Amazing

​The Balkans trip that you planned for our group was just amazing. The guides, driver, vehicle and hotels and sites you selected just hit the bulls eye. The driver for the entire trip was also awesome and helped us on speedy visa processing through 4 countries. He helped us load and unload our luggage as well. The vehicle was very comfortable, clean and spacious. He was with us throughout our travel. Sadiq, thanks for orchestrating a picture perfect trip for us. I strongly recommended Discount Travel to my daughter who booked her Italy and Turkey trip with you as well. We are already planning our next trip with Discount Travel.

​Alhamdulillah, I performed Hajj this year 2019 with Discount Travel. The whole experience was amazing. Mr. Sadiq made all the arrangements. The flight plan and travel were flawless. Hotels in Mecca and Medina was top class and very close to Haram and Masjid-e-Nabawi. Our tent in Mina was few minutes away from Jamarat which was a big plus. During our stay in Mina, we still had access to our hotel room in Mecca. That helped quite a bit when we went to Mecca for Tawaaf and Sai. Service in Arafat and Muzdalifah was excellent as well. I would highly recommend Discount Travel for your Hajj, Umrah and travel needs. Jazakallah Khair Discount Travel and Mr. Sadiq for making my first Hajj a memorable one.

Exceptional

​We have been using Travel Discount for at least the past 6 years for our family travels. Br. Sadiq has helped us navigate our travels for Ummrah, Morocco, India, and most recently Jordan and Palestine. Having 3 children and sometimes traveling with extended family we appreciate having a personal car and driver at our disposal. He is able to coordinate sightseeing and activities keeping in mind the size of our party. Our most recent trip to Palestine and Jordan was exceptional in the tour guides. He choose partner agencies that helped in the visa process with door to door service. Most importantly we appreciate English speaking guides who can impart historical and political knowledge to our trips. On this particular trip we were able to tie in many Islamic sites with references to the Quran and historical stories.

Punctual & Professional

​Thank you very much for arranging our Scotland and Ireland vacation program. From Air Line tickets , to hotel arrangements and arranging for very interesting sight seeing tours were all just fantastic. Discount Travel crew of Ireland and UK personnel are very highly professional people. They were very friendly, courteous and in all sense very professional. The personal guided tours were very informative and they also gave us time to shop in selected places which was very helpful . In my opinion their commentary was just like listening to well informed Historians. From picking us up from the Airports to dropping us off was all perfectly on time and I must really complement on their punctuality and professionalism. The Hotels in Edinburgh and Dublin served our purpose. They were all in the City and easily accessible to all highlights. Restaurants in both hotels provided very good food and the staff was very friendly , courteous and met all our demands. People who live in USA are all spoiled by 4 star and 5 star hotel ratings. In Europe you just cannot anticipate the same equivalent grade. But we all slept well and with comfort. I must say in the end that people in both countries were very friendly and define courtesy very well. Again thank you for all your efforts in arranging such a fabulous vacation. Note: Our granddaughter Saher can’t wait for another European Vacation.

Satisfying Experience

​Last Year, we performed Hajj thru Discount Travel of Lombard, IL. We have nothing but great compliments for Br. Sadiq for providing us with such a beautiful, memorable and satisfying experience. We were provided a very professional and caring support thorough out our trip. My mother-in law carries a Pakistani passport. On our way to Medina we transited thru Qatar. Br. Sadiq made sure for us to stay in a hotel at the Qatar airport. As I understand It is not easy for an older person to get a Qatari visa. All in all a great job.

Satisfying Experience

Our private trip to China was amazing! We explored Shanghai, Xi’an, Beijing, and Hong Kong, visited the Great Wall, hidden cities, and iconic spots like Shanghai Tower. All hotels – The Peninsula, People’s Grand Hotel, and Sofitel – were excellent, and our dedicated driver and tour guide made everything smooth. In Xi’an, the Masala Restaurant served fresh Halal Pakistani and Indian food with great service. Highly recommended through Discount Travel (Chicago) and travel partner of discount travel .
