Halal Travel Guide Omdömen 

My recent trip to Bosnia with HTG was a fantastic experience. The team were kind, thoughtful, and extremely professional throughout the visit, creating a welcoming and supportive atmosphere for everyone.

Their knowledge of Bosnia’s history and culture was impressive, and they explained everything in a clear and engaging way that really brought the places we visited to life.

The arrangements throughout the trip were excellent. The family-run hotels were exceptional and added a really personal touch to the experience. The food and meal arrangements were also excellent, giving us the chance to enjoy delicious local cuisine.

Everything was very well organised and the team were always helpful and attentive. I would highly recommend travelling with HTG to anyone interested in learning more about Bosnia in a meaningful and well-organised way.

Don't think I've had a smoother and more interesting trip

Great experience

MashaaAllah the best tour guide service I've ever been privileged to be apart of, shout out to Nadeem and Sami, you guys were legends, when we bombarded you with questions, you guys were calm, collected and explained everything in detail, and with enthusiasm.
I'm dying for an excuse to go on another adventure with you guys again

They were honestly extremely helpful and educated us to a high degree.

My trip to Oman was an amazing experience. The country offers stunning nature, rich culture, and warm hospitality that makes you feel welcome everywhere. From deserts and mountains to beaches and historic cities, Oman truly has everything the heart desires. HTG did a wonderful job showcasing these gems throughout the journey. Traveling in Oman with HTG was peaceful, authentic, and inspiring, and I would highly recommend it. A big kudos as well to our driver, Hamzah and Turki for accompanying us and taking such great care of us during the trip.

The organisation of the group was excellent, staff were very friendly and knowledgeable.

Special thanks to Hamzah and Turki for making us so welcomed and guiding us throughout the tour. Also the back office staff would keep us updated and always check up on us to see if everything was good, very impressed.

Im definitely going to go again with Halal.

Hotels were of a good standard and the others travellers within the group were very friendly aswell. 10 out of 10 for the experience.

Cannot beat them, the best, definitely going again with them

I had never traveled with a group before and usually only travel with family, but after hearing so many great things about Halal Travel Guide, I decided to book my first trip with them to Jordan. From start to finish, HTG handled absolutely everything for me. All I had to do was book my flight—they took care of the rest. It made the entire experience incredibly smooth and stress-free. Our group leader, Nedim, was phenomenal: energetic, knowledgeable, and such a valuable part of the trip. The group itself was also amazing company throughout. I’m already looking forward to booking my next adventure with HTG!

From wandering the lively streets of Amman to sharing quiet desert nights with bedouins under a sky full of stars, to standing in awe before the rose-red stones of Petra; this trip made me fall in love with Jordan over and over again. The depth of Islamic (and otherwise) history in every corner of this country is impossible to ignore.

The itinerary was planned so thoughtfully that each day felt seamless, and always meaningful. Our guide was brilliant — knowledgeable, warm, and genuinely passionate about his land — and the group dynamic made the experience even richer.

This was my second trip with HTG, and once again they proved why they’re in a league of their own. Professional, organized, and deeply committed to creating unforgettable experiences. I came home with loads of fond memories, new knowledge, and an even greater appreciation for Jordan and for HTG.

Unforgettable journey through Bosnia with Halal Travel Guide!

I just completed the October 2025 Sisterhood in Bosnia trip with Halal Travel Guide. When I booked this trip, I was looking forward to discovering beautiful Bosnia and its timeless charm, but I left with so much more: a deep admiration for the resilience and unwavering faith of its people, priceless memories, and amazing new friendships and sisterhoods along the way.

A big thank you to Brother Nedim, our travel lead and Bosnia’s “unofficial ambassador” to us. He is such a kind and funny soul who kept us entertained while sharing his deep knowledge and love for the country.
Sister Melissa, our wonderful coordinator, ensured everything ran smoothly and kept us organized and on track with such warmth and professionalism, while also sharing touching stories of her family and the lasting impact of the Srebrenica genocide. These moments made our journey even more personal and moving.

Appreciation also goes to Brother Almir, who shared his wisdom during our visit to the Tunnel of Hope and Old Town, beautifully connecting Bosnia’s history with its rich Islamic heritage. Sister Mirna gave us an insightful tour of Mostar and its layered history, while Brother Dino went above and beyond to help with transportation and share his local knowledge.

A heartfelt mention to our gracious local hosts, Auntie Anya and Uncle Munib, who not only opened the doors of their home to share their culture and delicious food with us, but also their arms and hearts. Their hospitality was truly unforgettable!

In response to a comment wondering about possible encounters like bears or boars, the only “wild beasts” we saw were the adorable kittens roaming through the parks and cobbled streets. ;) 🐾

Finally, sincere thanks to Sister Soumaya and Brother Sami, the visionary founders of Halal Travel Guide, for pioneering such an inspiring initiative that connects our global Muslim community through meaningful travel. May Allah reward you abundantly for your efforts, ameen 🤲🏻

If you’re on the fence, this is your sign to embark on a truly transformative experience. Join the Halal Travel Fam, you won’t regret it! ✨

HTG provided us with a wonderful introduction to Bosnia. We learned a great deal about the history, visited beautiful places, and experienced the warmth and resilience of the people. Traveling without worrying about halal food or exposure to inappropriate experiences was a treat. Nedim and Melissa went out of their way to attend to special needs and to take good care of us. I would definitely travel with HTG in the future if I have the opportunity, and I highly recommend them.

The Bosnia tour was absolutely amazing. From the moment I landed and was met by Nedim and some of the group members, I felt completely at home.
The tour was very well planned and the accommodations were very comfortable. I did prefer the hotel in Mostar because it was simpler and felt more like a home.
Many thanks to Nedim, Melissa, and Almir for sharing their extensive knowledge and their life experiences.
Special thanks to Nedim for tirelessly driving the bus and for leading the group. His sense of humour and willingness to answer our questions—however trivial—are very much appreciated.
Special thanks to Melissa for always providing us with accurate and detailed information about our schedule well in advance.
As a senior citizen, I greatly appreciate how Nedim and Melissa went out of their way to give me special consideration and to make sure that I was well taken care of at all times.
I shall cherish the memories of this trip that introduced me to a beautiful country and to beautiful, warm, and caring people. Thank you.

The Halal Travel Guide team went above and beyond in every way. I felt completely safe and cared for throughout the trip. Brother Nedim and Sister Melissa weren’t just guides: they shared their hearts, their history, and deeply personal stories about the war that gave so much meaning to every place we visited.

Their passion for their country and people showed in everything they did. And the food - was delicious and lots of variety.

This was more than sightseeing; it was an experience rooted in faith, culture, and humanity. I can’t recommend Halal Travel Guide enough.

This is our second trip through HTG. Our recent trip was to Bosnia. The trip was organised very well. We were informed our daily schedule prior to the trip and we were sent reminders everyday. Our tour guide Nedim was amazing. He went above and beyond in order to make our trip enjoyable and memorable. Transport was clean and comfortable. We took regular breaks on long drives. He kept us entertained all rhe time. We would definitely recommend this company if you are wishing to experience a well organised and memorable trip.

Amazing Views of the Mountains.
Mostar was excellent
Lukomir highly recommended to see
Sarajevo Old town excellent
Tour guide very friendly
Eating Halal was easy. Opportunity to pray salaat in Mostar/ Lukomir & Sarajevo
I would recommend not to do Srebrenica the day after visiting Lukomir. Instead do Sarajevo whole day, then do Srebrenica on 5th day, return back to Sarajevo same day, then on 6th day return to Mostar for those flying out of Dubrovnik Airport (Čilipi airport) - this is less tiredness & gives more time to sightsee Sarajevo

I signed up to join the Bosnia trip but was unable to due to visa issues. The HTG staff was very accommodating and provided a fair resolution. I plan on joining them on future trips inshaAllah.

*UPDATED - 24th Sept 2025*
I travelled with four other ladies on the Wild Bosnia trip which took place from 16th - 21st September 2025. Despite enjoying most of what the trip had to offer, a major incident occurred which comprised my safety whilst undertaking a hike. Despite being told by HTG prior to booking
this trip, that it was suitable for individuals who had not partaken in hiking before, essentially it was suitable for beginners etc. I was left behind alone, whilst the group partaked in a small hike prior to wild camping. I was left alone in the woods for over two hours. I decided to take a walk, but I was extremely anxious being on my own, coupled with the fear of something bad happening to me etc. Imagine if I had tripped or hurt myself, how would anyone locate me as there was no phone connection? I didn't even have water with me as I forgot to take it with me, because I was so overwhelmed with sheer emotion of what had just happened. Bosnia is also known for its wild large animals, such as bears, wild boar, wolves, and various deers. My safety was severely compromised.

Leaving a team member alone for over two hours - if this had occurred in England, there would have been damaging consequences for the company. Despite feeding this back to HTG team, they immediately dismissed the unprofessionalism and lack of care that had taken place, and instead have put the blame on me by not disclosing I had fear of heights or ocd as a medical condition etc. I would like to make it clear that these aren't medical conditions, and this also includes phobias. Instead of taking responsibility and accountability of what had happened which was against ethical practices to what they promote from an Islamic perspective, I was made aware that I would not be able to book again in the future. There is no love lost and there are many other reputable companies out there, but what is extremely dissapointing is for an apparent professional company like HTG to NOT acknowledge that they had not followed the health and safety regulations and this could lead to a legal implication if escalated further. It was also fed back to the host in Konjic whose accommodation we were based for most of the vacation, and even she agreed that this was truly unprofessional. I got told by HTG, that I had not disclosed such fears on "medical forms", however despite disclosing my dietary requirements, none of these were communicated to the host. There was another lady who was travelling within this group who specifically had made it clear that she can only eat gluten free, again this was not communicated to the host. Two other ladies had not even received medical forms.

To anyone wanting to book with HTG, please don't be fooled by glossy brouchers and do your research before investing your money.

Also, it was made apparant that this trip had originally had the scope to sign 20 people, but only five actually joined, misleading the host to believe that a larger group would be joining, causing her a loss. Five ladies including myself had joined the trip. Three of us vowed that we would not be travelling with them again in the future. In addition to the above issue, there were communication issues. Also we were told that we would have HTG accompanying us on this trip, but this was not the case. Another lady, who had travelled with HTG prior to Spain, also confirmed that she was also misled by the team, that HTG team would be travelling with them, which did not happen.

Simply, if you don't want your safety to be at a risk, or want to experience a professional service, then please refrain from booking with Halal Travel Group.

Asalaam aleikum wa rehmatullahi wa barakatahu, Just returned from a trip to Kazakhstan. Would thoroughly recommend it! We went as a family & had such a wonderful time, full of adventures such as hiking, water peddling across a beautiful lake & climbing sand dunes (not as easy as it sounds!).
The views, sunsets & sunrises were awesome as was the company of our fellow travellers all of whom were lovely!
Loved learning the history of Kazakhstan & stopping off at mosques to pray.
My highlight was getting to meet Soumaya & Sami Hamdi & their wonderful children. Such an inspirational couple mashAllah! Their team of Gia, Gulmira & Rashida were also so helpful & thoughtful, always ensuring we were comfortable & well cared for.
Would definitely recommend this company & am already looking forward to travelling with them again!

I had the most amazing experience traveling to Kazakhstan this summer with HTG alongside a friend, and I can confidently say it was a trip of a lifetime. From the very beginning, everything exceeded my expectations. We were able to do so many adventurous activities—exploring the breathtaking mountains, stunning canyons, serene lakes, and the beautiful natural landscapes of Almaty. Each place we visited left me in awe.

Beyond the landscapes, what made this journey truly unforgettable was experiencing the rich culture of Kazakhstan. Learning about the country’s deep history and its strong Muslim heritage gave me a new perspective and appreciation for its traditions. Every city we visited felt alive with culture, hospitality, and warmth.

The accommodations were also excellent—the hotels and guesthouses we stayed at were comfortable, welcoming, and provided a wonderful balance of rest after our explorations.
Another highlight was the people. Not only did I make amazing new friends on this trip—whom I know I’ll stay in touch with—but we also had incredible support from the HTG team. Gia and Soumaya were always there to help us with anything we needed, and our guide, Gulmira, was generous, patient, and full of knowledge. She made sure we were comfortable at all times and answered all our questions, truly becoming a friend along the way.

Traveling with HTG has opened my mind to joining many more trips with them in the future. It completely erased any fears I had about group travel and instead filled me with gratitude and joy.

I would wholeheartedly recommend HTG to anyone looking to experience not only the adventure of a lifetime but also the warmth of true cultural exchange and lasting friendships.
