The tour packages, available on its website as well as through the mobile app, are tailored specifically for Muslim consumers - a sector predicted to grow to US$200 billion in the next four years according to the MasterCard-CrescentRating Global Muslim Travel Index (GMTI) 2015.
HalalTrip’s sister firm, CrescentRating - an authority on halal travel, has rated the Muslim-friendliness of each package. The ratings range from bronze to gold against a range of criteria that includes the availability of halal food and prayer facilities.
