🌸 “The other ladies in the group were so fun, and we became quite close.” - Zainab⁠
🌸 “Alhamdulilah, I made some amazing friends in this group of sisters.” - Sureya⁠

Connection. That’s what makes these ladies-only trips so special. Connecting with sisters who feel like lifelong friends, with places that take your breath away, and with locals who welcome you like family. It’s the kind of experience that stays with you—long after the trip is over. 🤍⁠

Every review you see here is from a real traveller who’s been right where you are—wondering what it’s like. 🛡️ We’re proud to be verified on Trustpilot & WeTravel, with real profiles and honest reviews from sisters who’ve experienced these journeys for themselves. Your trust matters to us, and we’re here to make sure your trip is just as unforgettable as theirs.⁠

Whether it’s exploring Islamic heritage, trying out halal food from different cultures, or simply bonding over shared adventures, these trips are designed for sisters who are ready to connect in ways that matter. ✨⁠

If you’ve been dreaming of travelling with a group of women who just get it, this is your sign. 💕⁠

And so it begins! We’re super excited to be back in Bosnia 🇧🇦 hosting guests from the US 🇺🇸, Canada, 🇨🇦, Qatar 🇶🇦 and the UK 🇬🇧.

We’re going to be pushing the boundaries doing more outdoor activities - hiking 🥾, rafting 🛶, rock climbing 🧗‍♂️ and via ferrata 🤘.

Will try to share daily updates so you can also join in the fun and see what we’ve been up to 😊.

Today marks 29 years since the massacre of thousands of Muslim men and boys in the “protected” town of Srebrenica. On 11th July 1995, Serb General Ratko Mladic ordered his army to separate men and boys from women and girls. The women and their daughters were sent away on buses. The men were kept behind in Srebrenica. Most of them were never reunited with their families.

It’s estimated that 8373 unarmed Bosnian Muslim men and boys were killed in only a few days in July 1995.⁠

The United Nations peacekeeping mission, led by the Netherlands, failed to protect the people they had promised to keep safe. They failed to stop the ethnic cleansing of thousands of unarmed Bosniak men and boys. UN petrol was even used to fuel transport of men and boys to the killing fields and bulldozers to plough the corpses into mass graves. ⁠

To this day, the remains of those murdered in Srebrenica are still being found.⁠ Today, 14 more victims will finally be buried and laid to rest, 29 years after they were murdered.

Today we humbly ask that you remember them all - the martyrs, survivors and their families - in your prayers. ⁠

Al Fatiha 🤲🏼

🙂Some of you have been curious about whether we’ve continued our trips to Jordan and the answer is, YES! We’ve run two trips to Jordan 🇯🇴 in the last 6 months and, alhamdulillah, both have run very smoothly. It’s worth noting that there is a high proportion of Palestinians working in the tourism and hospitality industry in Jordan, so a well-planned trip there can benefit the local community. ⁠

Our next trips are late October and December insha Allah, so if you’re keen to join, head over to our 🔗link in bio🔗.⁠

Nazeefah recently joined us this month all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦, and here’s a little snippet of what she has to say about the experience:⁠

“Jordan was breathtaking and completely surpassed my expectations...The full day at Petra was a real highlight and I appreciated that we had enough time to explore it as we saw fit. Another favourite was our day and night in Wadi Rum. The free stargazing experience that Ahmed, the owner of Rum Planet Camp, arranged for us was otherworldly. He pointed out the stars and constellations to us with such care and enthusiasm it felt like we were in the open-air classroom of a beloved teacher! ⁠

Traveling with a group of ladies was inspiring and the camaraderie was wonderful. I was apprehensive as a solo traveler but I very quickly realised that my worries were unfounded when I met the rest of the ladies. I am really pleased and grateful that I had the opportunity to travel with HTG and I would recommend them wholeheartedly.”⁠

Thank you Nazeefah for joining us from the Rainbow Nation, a country we feel very proud of for its stance on the right side of humanity 🇿🇦🤝♥️🇵🇸⁠

“When I was a child, my parents told me about what happened in Bosnia in the 90s”, says Assad, who recently travelled from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 to join us in Bosnia 🇧🇦.

“Since then this country has always stuck in my head. Alhamdullilah, I managed to get some time off work to visit this amazing country and wouldn’t have chosen any other company to go with. Halal Travel Guide have years of experience and that was evident throughout the course of the trip. They focus on real life story telling which impacts your heart greatly. I’ve been with many tour companies before and they are usually very demanding with lots in the itinerary.

However, HTG had the perfect balance which me and my wife loved. Soumayya, Salma and Nedim were absolutely excellent and I couldn’t have asked for better guides.

Thank you HTG for organising this trip and I hope to be back with you in the near future InshAllah.”

Thank you Assad 🥲

✅️ We’ve hit 4.7/5 on Trustpilot alhamdulillah 🤩, thanks to your support! So if you’ve been thinking of travelling with us and don’t know where to start, here’s what Halimah said about travelling with us to Uzbekistan 🇺🇿 in Oct ‘23:⁠

“Where to start and what to say! Uzbekistan is an absolutely stunning country that is so underrated, from Tashkent to Khiva to Bukhara and Samarkand to name a few...To our wonderful guide, who was incredibly thoughtful, humorous and knowledgeable along with having patience with us, and from meeting more wonderful ladies on this trip, I can’t wait to come back. ⁠

Again, if you’re thinking about visiting Uzbekistan, do the 10 days. It’s highly worth it, and you won’t regret it.”⁠

Thank you Halimah 🥲🥰⁠

- I’ve been thinking a lot about what travel means for us as Muslim women.⁠

(Brothers reading this, stay with me - there’s something here for your beloved mum/wife/sister/aunt).⁠

It’s about so much more than just seeing new places; it’s about feeling at ease in our surroundings, knowing we can pray peacefully, enjoying meals that fit our dietary needs, and wearing our hijab or burkini without a second thought. It’s about the safety and understanding that makes a journey truly restful and enriching. ⁠

It’s also about learning more about ourselves and our heritage - connecting with inspiring stories from our Islamic heritage across Bosnia and Uzbekistan, to many more places in between. ⁠

And it’s precisely why we’ve created our ladies-only trips. We’ve considered everything you might worry about and turned them into opportunities for comfort, discovery, and spiritual connection. ⁠

Travelling is about discovering the world and ourselves. Let’s make those discoveries together. ⁠

“What can I say? This was my first ever trip with HTG and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The trip was so well planned, and a feast for the eyes and soul.I met some lovely ladies and have made friends for life.⁠

With Ramadan🌙 just around the corner, how do you feel about making this one your most memorable yet?⁠

If you’re in need of a little healing 💚, your soul is craving wholesome company, heartwarming discussions 💬 and the chance to feel a vibrant Ramadan spirit, you don’t want to miss this trip.⁠

Since we first started organising group trips at HTG in 2018, one of our goals has been to host a Ramadan trip. To create a space where we can share beautiful iftars with new-found friends, pray in some of the most beautiful mosques in Europe, and the opportunity to sit with and learn from inspiring speakers✨️.⁠

So it’s an honour that we’re finally getting to do this, and in the country where we ran our first ever trip - Bosnia 🇧🇦♥️.⁠

And to top it off, we’ll have inspiring international speaker (and beloved member of HTG), Sami Hamdi salhachimi joining us on this incredible Ramadan experience, insha Allah. ⁠

Sami has been all over our social media lately, giving us hope and inspiration during a time when it feels there is very little of that. ⁠

Which is why we’re honoured that he will be joining us on what is going to be an incredible opportunity to make this an unforgettable Ramadan, insha Allah. ⁠

Our Story

It all started back in 2015, when our founder Soumaya Hamdi embarked on a road trip through South-East Asia (Singapore --> Malaysia --> South Korea --> Japan). With husband and reluctant baby in tow, the young family explored up and down the region, searching for the best in authentic halal food and Muslim-friendly travel experiences. With a notepad and pen in one hand, and trusty heavy-duty camera in the other, Soumaya began to make notes of places and travel tips…and this is how the earliest version of Halal Travel Guide was born. From the very beginning, our aim has been to encourage Muslims to seek the less-travelled path, and to make this easier by creating networks with locals who can share their expertise with us and, therefore, with you.
