2. Halal Tourism and Travel

Called ethical travel or muslim-friendly tourism, halal travel is a recently developed concept, which allows Muslim tourists to enjoy a vacation in full compliance with the principles and values of the Muslim religion.

Halal travel is not to be confused with religious travel, but suggests vacation destinations that are adapted to the needs of Muslims. The term « Muslim-friendly » could be translated into French as « Conforme aux Musulmans ». There are several halal travel agencies.

The Private Tours offered by Ummahtrip offer to travel in a healthy environment, to enjoy halal food, to have access to prayer areas or mosques nearby and in some cases to offer swimming pools or beaches reserved only for women.

One of the most favored destinations remains Malaysia with its sumptuous mosques and its paradisiacal islands as far as the eye can see.
