Healthtrip launches Healinharam.com to promote Saudi Arabia’s as a global medical and wellness tourism hub

Healinharam.com is a new digital gateway launched by Healthtrip, the world's largest health travel platform. With Saudi Arabia's healthcare landscape booming and millions of pilgrims flowing through Makkah, Madinah, and Jeddah every year - this platform lands right on time. In that sense, it offers seamless access to top-tier medical and wellness services in the Kingdom — aligning perfectly with the bold ambitions of Vision 2030.

As Obaidullah Junaid, CEO of Healthtrip, put it: "This inspired the creation of Heal in Haram - a dedicated platform enabling customers to heal their bodies and souls, during a pilgrimage trip."

How does it work?

Healinharam.com works like a concierge in your pocket. It gives international visitors — especially pilgrims — access to an integrated network of hospitals, wellness centers, and medical services across key Saudi cities. All of it is rolled into one user-friendly digital platform.

Here's what you can do on the app:

• Book health checkups, dialysis, chemotherapy, or chronic care treatments
• Access services from top institutions like Saudi German Hospital, Kings College Hospital, Fakeeh, and others
• Schedule wellness therapies during or after your pilgrimage
• Communicate via multilingual AI chatbots and get support with travel and follow-up care

Danish Ahmed, Founder of Healthtrip, summed it up: "Healinharam.com addresses a real need for structured access to quality healthcare during pilgrimage."

Why does it matter?

Because health doesn't take a backseat, not even during sacred travel. Every year, millions visit Saudi Arabia for Hajj and Umrah. Many are elderly or chronically ill. Until now, access to trusted care while abroad could be patchy. Healinharam.com fixes that.

• In 2024 alone, Saudi Arabia welcomed 1.83 million Hajj pilgrims. A whopping 88% were international.
• Healthcare demand during pilgrimage is spiking, and so is the Kingdom's ability to meet it.
• Saudi hospitals are not just local powerhouses — they're going global in standards and services.

Dr. Ahmed Shebl, Group CEO of Saudi German Health, proudly noted: "We became the first Saudi hospital to get the TEMOS accreditation for serving international patients."

The context

All of this ties back to Vision 2030 — Saudi Arabia's sweeping blueprint for economic transformation. At its core is tourism, with a growing focus on wellness and medical travel. Think spa retreats in the mountains of Madinah, holistic therapies rooted in Prophetic Medicine, and world-class hospitals with views of sacred landmarks.

The country is positioning itself as the destination for health tourism in the MENA region — and beyond.

As Claire Smith, CEO of Kings College Hospital Jeddah, put it: "Our hospital in Jeddah brings the latest technology and top global talent together, offering patients world-class healthcare near the Holy Cities."

Healthtrip is no stranger to this game. With over 70,000 patients served across 42 countries and a network of 1,500+ accredited providers, it's already made waves in global health travel. Now, with Healinharam.com, it's anchoring that expertise in the heart of the Islamic world — right where faith and healing meet.
