Activity itinerary

Makkah zam zam factory
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
The Zamzam Factory in Makkah is a facility dedicated to the purification and bottling of the sacred Zamzam water. Located near the Masjid al-Haram, the factory uses advanced filtration systems to ensure the water's purity while maintaining its natural properties. Zamzam water has a profound history rooted in Islamic tradition. According to the storey, the well of Zamzam was miraculously revealed by Allah to Hajar, the wife of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham), and their infant son, Prophet Ismail (Ishmael), around 4,000 years ago. Left in the desert near present-day Makkah, Hajar desperately searched for water to quench her son's thirst. In her distress, she ran between the hills of Safa and Marwah, and when she returned, she found water gushing from the ground near her son. This became the Zamzam well, a source of sustenance for millions of pilgrims and visitors to Makkah ever since.
Hira Cultural District
  • 1h 40m
  • Admission ticket included
The Hira Cultural District is a significant cultural and historical area in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, near the iconic Jabal al-Nour (Mountain of Light). This district is home to the Cave of Hira, where Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) received his first revelation from the Angel Jibril (Gabriel), marking the beginning of Islam. The Hira Cultural District aims to preserve and showcase the spiritual and historical significance of this sacred site. It features various cultural and educational facilities, including museums, exhibition halls, and information centers that provide insights into the life of the Prophet, the early days of Islam, and the profound impact of the revelations.
