Our director Hafsa Gaher had the pleasure of speaking recently to British Muslim Magazine about our work at the Halal Travel Network and the world of Halal tourism. The team there were great at framing their questions to bring out the best in the conversation.
The two page article covers:
✨ The different aspects of Halal tourism, looking at the whole picture and not just stopping at food and requirements.
✨ How the travel industry can better serve Muslim travellers through inclusivity while encouraging mutual respect.
✨ The trends and opportunities that are shaping our industry.
✨ and What we at the Halal Travel Network are doing to help to make this happen.

A big thank you to British Muslim Magazine for the opportunity to contribute to this and for organising my thoughts and stories into a coherent narrative.

I hope that this interview sparks more discussion and ideas about the potential of Halal tourism to shape a more inclusive and diverse travel industry and I am excited to be a part of it.

We still can’t believe it has been over a week since we had the chance to speak at the Halal Congress in Izmir among some world leaders in Halal tourism! 🌎🇹🇷

Our talk delved into Africa’s immense potential in the global development of Halal tourism.

We went into some detail on the Muslim heritage of Africa, technology developments, halal tourism trends as well as looking ahead at what we can do, together.

A special thank you must go out to Hüseyin PAMUKÇU for the opportunity to share the work that we have done to promote Halal tourism around the world.

Today marks World Hijab Day 🧕 as we think about all Muslim ladies who may have faced issues wearing their hijab whether at home or abroad.

As a travel business:
-Have your clients raised concerns about travelling with a hijab?
-What do you do to address their worries, especially when travelling to non-Muslim countries?
