About Umrah

We are the premier providers of Hajj and Umrah , authorized and licensed by the Ministry of Hajj, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia , and the Saudi Embassy in Canada for processing Hajj and Umrah visas. With over 20 years of experience , we specialize in organizing and managing these sacred Islamic pilgrimages.

Hajj and Umrah are spiritual journeys of immense significance. Pilgrims don the Ihram attire, express sincere intention (Niyyah), and follow set rituals. Hajj spans five days, including Tawaf, Sa'i, and Arafat's Day. Umrah, though shorter, is equally meaningful, involving Tawaf and Sa'i.

Throughout these journeys, we prioritize health, safety, and environmental consciousness. We encourage pilgrims to respect local customs, practice patience, and maintain humility. It's a time for heartfelt Du'a (supplication) and seeking Allah's blessings. These spiritual endeavors offer Muslims worldwide a profound connection and an opportunity for self-reflection.

Clients Testimonial

KingTravel, a leading Umrah and Hajj service company based in Mississauge, is dedicated to providing outstanding services to pilgrims. They uphold their commitments and translate them into practical actions. Transparency is a key factor that has left a lasting impression on me and my family.

Jahanzeb Shehzad

May Allah bless you, this is indeed a sincere, reliable, and equally outstanding company. Keep up the excellent work! My parents are highly impressed with the dedication and efforts your team consistently puts into their work. Your service has consistently been praiseworthy and deserving of appreciation!

Kashif Moore

I haven't personally experienced their service yet, but my parents have had the opportunity, and based on their feedback, they received exceptional service from KingTravel throughout the process. They highly recommend KingTravel to anyone planning to go for Umrah & Hajj. Thank you, KingTravel, for your excellent services. Insha'Allah,.

Ahmad Seeyar Anwar

It was a wonderful experience with king travel for Umrah. The class they have arranged before going for Umrah was very informative and useful, they served dinner also which was very nice of them. Saudi air line was good. The arrangements they did for traveling.

Excellent service provided by KingTravel is dragging everybody's heart towards them... May Allah bless the guys running such an admirable journey, KingTravel has really earned the approbation in many people's hearts by being polite and kind in the entire HOLY JOURNEY for Umrah.

Adnan Shamsi

As I have experienced, KingTravel stands out as one of the best Umrah service companies currently operating in Canada. They boast exceptional guides who provide comprehensive support to Hajis throughout their Umrah journey.

Kashif Anwar

What an exceptional service! KingTravel is one of the top-notch Umrah package providers in the world. They exceeded my expectations by customizing the Umrah package according to my requirements. I'll continue to rely on them for ongoing Umrah services.

Zuhaib Ashraf

Best price and excellent service for Umrah packages. Purchased 6 Umrah packages for a family trip, and the best thing is that I did not have to pay cash. Spoke with agent Raheel from KingTravel, and he was very helpful. I heard they also have great Umrah packages, as my friend who recommended me has purchased an Umrah package from KingTravel.

Syed Husnain

We had an incredible experience with KingTravel during our Umrah journey. The tour guide provided exceptional service, making special efforts to find both vegetarian and non-vegetarian food options for us. I would unquestionably choose KingTravel for our Umrah package again and highly recommend them.

Comprehensive luxury travel design.

Hi, I’m Deana King

I traded in a long corporate executive career working with some of the most amazing teams for the best job ever: Designing bond-building travel experiences for clients eager to explore, together. Planning elaborate events and trips for the people I love to surround myself with—from friends and colleagues to my own family—helped me realize I have a knack for turning complicated logistics into a seamless (and laughter-filled!) travel experience. Today, I help individuals and group leaders plan their own trips of a lifetime, with ease. Business owners, club or membership organizations, friend groups, non-profit boards, and even family matriarchs or patriarchs work with me to design immersive trips that cultivate community and inspire awe, wherever they choose to go.

Kings Island is more than an amusement park. It's the reason I have my family

Few places give adults the same magic feeling they felt when they were kids.

For me, Kings Island takes me back to 10-year-old David. The distant sound of cheers. The smell of funnel cakes. The rush I feel when riding Diamondback or The Beast .

But the 52-year-old amusement park is more than an adrenaline destination for me.

Start the day smarter. Get all the news you need in your inbox each morning.

It's part of my family's story.

My favorite childhood park

I first visited Kings Island when I was about 4 years old. It instantly became one of my favorite places in the world. I made my grandfather ride The Racer with me four times, twice frontward and twice backward . That was when they actually had the backward facing coaster.

My family and I then made the park a regular hangout spot during the summer. We'd spend weekends there. I'd go there with classmates. Friends would take me with their families or vice versa.

It was the anticipation I felt pre- Drop Zone (I refuse to call it Drop Tower) . Or the competitive juices that flowed when my friends and I competed in the 3-point shootout. We always wanted to win a jersey but never could.

Those were among the experiences that brought me back.

It also made tough days better.

I was on a Kings Island trip during LeBron James' infamous "Decision" special in 2010. As a big Cleveland Cavaliers fan , I failed in my search for a TV. So I snuck into a bathroom and called my friend, who then put his phone next to his TV's speaker (this was pre-FaceTime).

"I'm going to take my talents to South Beach and join the Miami Heat," I heard James say, as I huddled in a corner next to a trash can.

I hung up the phone, crushed. But I at least eased the pain with some blue ice cream .

The trip that changed everything

One trip during my freshman year of high school changed my life forever.

My buddies and I went to Kings Island on a Saturday in May. I had a youth group event at my church the day before and learned one of my church friends was also going with her school the same day.

Her name was Macey. We had been friends for a while but never actually spent time together outside of our friend group at church.

She didn't even hang out with her classmates that day, choosing to ride rides with me and my friends instead.

And we had ourselves a time, screaming on Delirium . Eating snacks. She playfully picked on me while on The Beast.

Our friendship started feeling ... different.

My friends said they could tell we liked each other, which hadn't crossed my mind before. I previously "talked" to her best friend (you know, the term us millennials used for pre-dating). She did the same with my cousin.

But we started texting more after that trip. We had more inside jokes, and spent more time with each other over our friends.

Weeks later, we were dating.

Kings Island's special place in my heart

May 14, 2024, will mark 13 years since that trip. May 27 will be the 13th anniversary of when Mace became my girlfriend and our eighth wedding anniversary.

After that day in 2011, we continued visiting Kings Island, reliving that fateful day our lives changed.

My mom used to get us season passes for Christmas every year. When we moved to Cincinnati in 2014, we would just go on random week nights. Or when we just need something to do. One year, we got a season-long meal plan, and I'd just go to the park to grab lunch (I was a broke college kid).

It was our home away from home.

I haven't been back since 2019. COVID-19 messed things up for a couple years, then my wife couldn't go on rides when she was pregnant in 2022 and 2023. We welcomed our first two children those years.

But I still often reflect on those memories.

On the childhood trips with friends. On the random concerts I attended at the park's Timberwolf Amphitheatre . On going there for senior skip day in high school or eating lunch in the Festhaus . Or of all the dips into the wave pool at Soak City .

So whether you're 4 years old going for your first time, or you're taking your kids to your favorite childhood park, I hope you too make magical memories this amusement park season.

News & features, winter center, news / travel, the top 10 us beaches for 2024, according to ‘dr. beach’.

If you want to enjoy the top US beach in 2024, pack your bags for Hawaii. Stephen Leatherman, aka “Dr. Beach,” is out with his annual list of the 10 best beaches.

By Forrest Brown, CNN

Published May 24, 2024 8:15 AM PDT | Updated May 24, 2024 8:15 AM PDT

As the weather warms up, millions of Americans will be flocking to beaches. If you’re one of them, Wyatt Werneth, with the American Lifeguard Association, has what you’ll need to know to keep your family safe.

(CNN) — If you want to enjoy the top US beach in 2024, then make like “The Brady Bunch” and pack your bags for Hawaii.

Duke Kahanamoku Beach on the island of Oahu crowns the list of the 10 best US beaches put out annually by “Dr. Beach,” aka coastal scientist Stephen Leatherman.

Kahanamoku is no fluke pick, either. It was the No. 2 beach in Leatherman’s 2023 list . What makes it such a favorite?

The sandy haven “is located at the west end of Waikiki Beach, far from the large crowds elsewhere,” Leatherman said in a Thursday news release.

“It is the widest beach on this stretch of world-famous sands and protected by an offshore coral reef, making it a good beach for families with children.  The nearby Duke Kahanamoku Lagoon is also a favorite bathing and swimming spot,” said Leatherman, a professor in the Department of Earth & Environment at Florida International University in Miami.

Hawaii is king in 2024

The 50th state has the most entries on the top 10, sporting a total of three slots on the coveted list. So if you’re willing to island hop in Hawaii, you can score a top 10 beach trifecta in one state.

Like many beautiful places around the world, Hawaii is grappling with how to handle crowds and sometimes unruly tourists, like the ones who trespassed at the Haiku Stairs on Oahu even as they were being dismantled. Go Hawaii, the state’s tourism website, has a webpage devoted to tips on how to respect the islands’ culture and environment.

Elsewhere, New York and Florida have two beaches each on the list. And then South Carolina, Massachusetts and California landed one spot each to finish filling out the top 10.

Leatherman has been evaluating beaches and producing the annual list since 1991.  He uses 50 criteria to grade the beaches, which include water and sand quality, the size of waves, the shape of the beach, wildlife, public safety and cleanliness.

If Hawaii isn’t on your travel calendar, the No. 2 beach is in the highly populated Northeast.

Coopers Beach, located on Long Island, New York, is “shielded from the cold Labrador currents in the beautiful village of Southampton. The beach is backed by large sand dunes covered by American beach grass interspersed with extravagant mansions,” Leatherman said in the release. Coopers was the No. 3 beach in 2023.

The No. 6 beach in the United States is also located on Long Island.

As for the Sunshine State’s two entries, both beaches are on the Gulf coast, edging out its Atlantic-facing beaches.

Top 10 US beaches for 2024

1. Duke Kahanamoku Beach: Oahu, Hawaii

2. Coopers Beach: Southampton, New York

3. Wailea Beach: Maui, Hawaii

4. Caladesi Island State Park: Dunedin/Clearwater, Florida

5. Beachwalker Park: Kiawah Island, South Carolina

6. Main Beach: East Hampton, New York

7. Poipu Beach: Kauai, Hawaii

8. Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park: Naples, Florida

9. Coast Guard Beach: Cape Cod, Massachusetts

10. Coronado Beach: San Diego, California

Out of the Centre

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.

Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.

Belfry and Neighbouring Churches

Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.  

To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.

Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.

Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.

Tsaritsa's Chambers

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.

At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.

Palace of Tsar Alexis

The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.
