About this trip

Join us as we embark on our third Umrah Retreat! We invite you on this journey where we'll learn about the inner and outer dimensions of Umrah with Mustafa Briggs. We'll perform our Umrah together and apart. It will be an opportunity to connect to Allah, ourselves and fellow believers. We've curated an experience that combines a spiritual and adventurous journey and we hope that you benefit from it.


Most people visit Saudi Arabia to perform their Hajj and Umrah, not realizing the land is diverse, beautiful and full of surprises.  We invite you to explore parts unknown. We'll begin in Medina (4 nights) , make our way to Mecca (3 nights)  and finish off in Jeddah (3 nights)


We'll pray, explore historical Jeddah, Mecca and Madinah, shop and enjoy traditional Saudi food, art and music. You'll meet various locals and entrepreneurs who are doing wonderful things for the advancement of their communities. We've planned a few surprises that we won't share with you just yet.... Bismillah!


Join us as we travel inwardly and outwardly, with heart open and spirit ready insh'Allah!

Burgundy signals magnificence. It appeals to our inner regality, stirring us to reclaim our best selves. In this spirit we invite you to experience more than an “Escape”. This is a path to enriching yourself while giving back to local communities. This is a chance to ground yourself in a graceful adventure and, through it, discover universal roots.

The Burgundy Roots Morocco road trip was nothing short of magical—a perfect blend of breathtaking landscapes, vibrant culture, and incredible hospitality. From the bustling streets of Marrakech to the serene dunes of the Sahara, every moment felt like stepping into a postcard. My photos didn’t do it any justice! What truly made this trip unforgettable was sharing it with our wonderful travel companion, Wafa. Her adventurous spirit and infectious energy added an extra layer of joy to the experience. Special shoutout to Khadija and Muhammad as well, who were awesome hosts along the ride. I would recommend this trip to everyone… a road trip through Morocco with BR is an absolute must! I left with lifelong friends and am already dreaming of my next trip there.

This was my third experience with Burgundy Roots Retreats, following directly to the Uzbekistan tour. From initial contact, to booking, to superb coordination by the organizers, the excellent knowledge and wonderful humor of our guides, and the selection of tour sites, the trips were organized and run smoothly and with the interests and comfort of the participants always kept in mind. Which says everything about their efficiency, friendliness and organizational skill. The client is obviously at the heart of the itinerary planning, and attention to detail is second to none. I would highly recommend Burgundy Roots Retreats to anyone wanting a fun, relaxed, educational retreat.

Thank you Wafa & Burgundy Roots for a wonderful trip. Uzbekistan was beautiful, the itinerary was the perfect combination of group activities and flexible spare time, and everything was thought out to the smallest detail. We got an authentic experience of the culture and cuisine through the choices and stories of our wonderful guides. As someone who was there because of a general passion for history and a desire to visit all the former USSR countries in my lifetime, I was the only non-Muslim in the group but I never felt left out or like I didn't belong in the group. Regardless of faith, if you have an open mind, you will greatly benefit from this trip. I look forward to discovering more of Central Asia in the future, and to travelling with Burgundy Roots to other lands!

My husband and I had a fantastic time. The itinerary, the food and the accommodations were top notch. It was a perfect balance of touring and free time. Wafa makes it point to interact with all her guests. Her personal touch is much appreciated and keeps one wanting to come back.

I traveled with Wafa to do the Umrah... That was such a good experience. This trip is definitely the best by far. She is so professional and a nice person. I definitely recommend it to everyone who wants an experience that could change their life in a good way, bring more love in their heart, a closer connection with God and the chance to meet extraordinary people.

I have been on two Burgundy roots trips so far and I must say, the itineraries are very well thought out. Wafa and her team pay attention to every detail and leave no stone unturned to ensure a truly unique, hands-off and stress-free experience for all attendees. You get to visit some hidden gems , spend time in nature, enjoy delicious food with amazing COMPANY and learn more about Islam while you’re at it. Such a beautiful, spiritually uplifting experience! BEST TRIP(S) EVER!

Traveled with Burgundy Roots this summer to Jamaica and it was everything!!!! Wafa and her team were great! All the experiences and people I meet were a whole vibe. If you're thinking about traveling with them just do it, it will be so worth it.
