Nishaat Davids2024-04-17 Assalamu Alaykum, My husband and I travelled for Umrah to the holy lands of Makkah and Madinah in Ramadaan 2024. We were joined by another couple (friends of ours). All our travel arrangements were done by Halaal Tourism (Uncle Nadeem Williams). We wanted custom dates as we wanted to leave before Ramadaan started and come back in the middle of Ramadaan. Alhamdulillah we were assisted by Uncle Nadeem who booked our flights, accommodation, private shuttles as well as ziyaarahs in Makkah and Madinah for our custom dates. He also did our visa applications and explained in detail the pros and cons of the various visa options. From the get go we received professional top class service from Halaal Tourism and Uncle Nadeem. On the day our flights were booked the flight was a bit cheaper than what we were initially quoted and we received a refund, something we have never experienced before when dealing with other travel agents. We had no unpleasant issues during this trip and whatever was agreed upon and discussed before we left is exactly what we got and more. The hotels booked were in a good location close to both harams and the service at both hotels was good, we experienced no issues. We had Iftaar included and due to the good location of the hotels we could manage to break our fast in the haram and go back to the hotel for Iftaar after maghrib. For the ziyaarahs in both Makkah and Madinah, these were by private shuttle, the drivers were on time and they even took us to more ziyaarah places than we went to when we travelled before. Uncle Nadeem also regularly checked up on us to check if we were all ok and whether everything was still ok and whether there were any issues, which we appreciated. In Madinah we were able to visit the Rawdah via a group booking that was done by Halaal Tourism Saudi Representative, we also met the Saudi Representative at the Rawdah gate who assisted us with going through the checkpoints more quickly, we didn't have to wait in long queues for hours. Overall we had an amazing Umrah trip in Ramadaan and want to say Shukran/Thank you to Halaal Tourism and especially Uncle Nadeem for the excellent service we received from the beginning of our trip right to the very end. We will 100% recommend anyone wanting to travel for Umrah or any other leisure tour to do their bookings with Halaal Tourism. Keep up the great work and excellent service Halaal Tourism team! Shukran Nishaat Herman Ali2024-02-20 Exhilarating Summer Memories in Cape Town Our first family holiday to Cape Town in February 2024 was thrilling and memorable. The wonderful experiences were made possible, thanks to Mr. Nadeem Williams of Halal Tourism South Africa. Everything from vacation planning, accommodations, land transportation, visits to places of natural wonders were handled in a competent, friendly and trusted manner. Our transporter guide was pleasant, always early and ensured our travel was safe and comfortable. Highly recommended for stress-free travel experience. Shaficque Narker2024-01-03 I enquired with Mr Nadeem about a tour package for Egypt. I was looking for a tailored package which would suit my budget and my specific requirements. Mr Nadeem is the most responsive and approachable tour contact I have ever dealt with. He is exceptionally professional and checked in with me to confirm if all was in order and whether the tour was going as planned. I am extremely impressed with Mr Nadeem and would highly recommend him and the organization to anyone looking to travel. Thank you Mr Nadeem for an excellent service provided. Zakiyya Murtuza-Peerun2023-10-05 We used Halaal Tourism to book our all inclusive Ummrah Package and we had no complaints. The bookings were made professionally, with continous feedback, personalized touches, constant check ins. I would not hesitate to recommend the services of Nadeem and the Halaal Tourism group. Badeeah Solomons2023-08-27 Traveled with Halal Travel and Tours to Turkey a choice that I don't regret.The trip and tours were well planned and hassle free. From start to finish Nadeem was patient and always responded to all questions and worked tirelessly in the background to ensure that everything went smoothly during the tour.Shukran Nadeem and Co. For for facilitating and making our trip an enjoyable one. Well done team Halal Travel Aboubakr Abdullah2023-07-14 I really enjoyed my vacation in South Afirica with Halal Tourism. I visited Johannesburg, Capetown, Kruger Park, Panorama route and Garden route plus kristin bosch garden and many other places e.g. waterfront in Knysna and we booked for the whale watching but the weather was bad and all the whale watching trips were cancelled. They have shown me and my family very nice places in south Africa. Mr. Nadeem William is a very caring person and although he was out of the capetown city he left us in good hands. He was following us every day and night to ensure that everything is ok. I did not like one of the many hotels he booked for us, he changed it for us immediately. It was really very nice vacation in South Africa. My family and I want to repeat it again. Thanks a million Mr. Williams for you and your wonderful team: Mr. Mohammed Akhalwaya and Ms. Fayrouz Holliday. fasa jama2023-07-03 I would like to thank Mr. Thahier for the exceptional services and hospitality he provided during our time in Cape Town .

Hamdish Adan2023-07-03 I would like to thank Halal Tourism SA for the wonderful trip they planned for us. My trip to Capetown was amazing. The best experience, amazing service from Thahier. I would recommend him 100%. He made our stay very easy and best service ever. ✌️ Rehana2023-04-30 My family and I went on the 3-haram trip (including Turkey) with Halal Tourism in Ramadhaan 2023. It was a smooth and exciting journey, from the flights and other transport, to accommodation and guided tours. Uncle Nadeem and his wife Raafiqah always go the extra mile for their clients and this trip really exceeded my expectations. Halal Tourism arranged everything to the minutest detail allowing us to enjoy a hassle-free Umrah. And it all worked like clockwork. Uncle Nadeem even helped with arrangements for my son who was not part of the group and responded to queries with a calm, gentle smile. This was complimented by the guidance and advise from Sheikh Taahir. Most importantly, this tour was truly value for money considering the efficiency, high standards and the comprehensiveness of the package. The personal involvement was an added bonus. I would not hesitate to go with Halal Tourism again and would recommend others to enjoy their hospitality. One of the best trips that I've experienced. Waiting for your next tour uncle Nadeem.....

We had the pleasure to tour Turkey with them in October 2019. Lots of history and we were privileged to visit many of them. Care was taken to make these trips comfortable and pleasant. Accommodation was excellent and the food for most part was good. I would definitely travel with them again in shaa Allah.
ARMIEN JAPPIE

How privileged myself and my wife Feroza were to have travelled with Halal Tourism South Africa. Since the day we booked with Brother Nadeem he kept us up to date with travel arrangements until we departed from Cape Town. We made new friends as there were 22 in the group. All I can say is we could never have done it on our own. Shukran again to Ameer and Nadeem for everything you guys did for us, and we will definitely travel with Halal Tourism South Africa again.

I have travelled a lot and this was my first group tour with Halal Tourism South Africa. And a very memorable one. To be honest I was very skeptical at first about being on a tour with people from Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban. It was the best decision; right from the time we met in Dubai to our return we were one big family. As for our tour leaders Nadeem and Ameer, they left no stone unturned when it came to any aspect of our tour; always willing to accommodate and compromise and not forgetting all the extras that you added. Insha Allah, will surely join in one of the upcoming tours. I’m staying with Halal Tourism South Africa.

“We found the 2019 trip to Turkey an amazing experience. The group we travelled with were a wonderful group of people that became our friends. The days were hectic but most enjoyable. Nadeem and Ameer of Halal Tourism South Africa were absolutely amazing, always enquiring if everything was okay and was available 24 out of 24 and was willing to go the extra mile if need be. The trip was planned to meet the last detail, we did not worry about transfers, transportation, entrance fees, etc. Everything was taken care of. I must admit we would not have seen so many places had we gone on our own. This trip was worth every cent and well worth it. I would not hesitate in recommending Halal Tourism South Africa to future travellers.”
JAMEELAH JONAS

“The places they chose to visit is of top class. Had the privilege of travelling with them to Turkey in October 2019. It was an amazing journey (first time with a group). Nadeem and his companion Ameer were the perfect leaders of the pack and were very accommodating to the advantage of most of the team members.”
KASHIEFA CREIGHTON

“Alhamdulillah, I had the opportunity to travel to Turkey with Nadeem Williams in a group of 22. I was in absolute awe of the history of Islam in Turkey and also the manner in which respect is given to the many Sahaba RA buried there. We went during winter time and had the opportunity of exploring the county via shuttle tours, the Tram and Ferry. We commenced our tour by firstly visiting the Maqaam of the companions of Nabi Muhammad SAW and also the Awliyah Allah – in this way honouring the men who spread the message of Islam in what was then known as Constantinople. And those who centuries later strived to continue to spread the message of Islam uphold the true characters and virtues of our Beloved Rasulullah SAW. These great men are essentially the Inheritors of Nabi Muhammad SAW and referred to Allah SWT as Awliyah Allah. Alhamdulilah, what a beautiful experience.”

Hi. I was privileged to be part of the Turkey tour group in October 2019. We were a group of 22 people. This group became my Turkey family… awesome, good, kind hearted people. Halal Tourism South Africa planned this holiday very carefully to ensure that the travellers would get the maximum out of the tour. It was well planned; the hotels where top of the range. Shukran Nadeem and Ameer. Only one complaint: I wanted 2 more days for shopping😄.
I would have loved to join your tour in March 2020 but that’s my busy time at work. I’m certain the people going will have a superb time.
All the best Halal Tourism South Africa. Hope you organise a group tour with the next place on my bucket list…

NADIA HOFFMAN

“I travelled with Halal Tourism South Africa in January 2019. My trip to Turkey was beautiful. I was very happy with the hotel and the tour of the country. I would say the experience was out of this world, and the tour leader, Nadeem Williams was an amazing tour guide. The country of Turkey is very beautiful, and I was glad to visit the places on my travels. I would recommend visiting and spending much time in the Turkish country as the people treated me good and the food was a new experience. I enjoyed the food very much as it was the first time eating Turkish dishes. If I would ever travel again, I would travel with Halal Tourism South Africa. Shukran, thank you to Halal Tourism South Africa and staff.”

I would like to thank (Turkish: Teşekkür) Nadeem and Ameer for making my Turkish dream come true. Imagine having the privilege of seeing Nabi Musa’s staff, Nabi Dawood’s sword, Ertugrul’s grave, etc. Shukran, it was absolutely amazing, it was an experience that I would never ever forget. You guys were great, I felt safe, I would definitely travel with you again. Last but not least, I really appreciated the awesome birthday cake you guys bought me whilst we were in Cyprus. May the business grow from strength to strength, insha Allah. Türkiye seviyorum (English – I love Turkey).”

Our heartfelt thanks to Halal Tourism SA and Nadeem Williams for arranging a customized and budget-friendly trip to Cape Town in Dec 2019. Our guide, Nabeel Fakieh, made our visit exceptional with his attentive care, recommendations for great experiences like the Gold Restaurant, and prompt help when needed. Leaving was tough as we developed a wonderful bond. Hoping to return and explore more. Thanks, Halal Tourism South Africa! Happy New Year 2020 from Singapore! 😊"

“I was on the trip to Turkey in January 2019, led by brother Nadeem Williams. It was a great success
and an unforgettable trip as I experienced a lot of things. Brother Nadeem made an effort to show
us interesting places such as the grave of Ayyoob Al Ansar, Topkapi palace museum, Blue mosque
and other interesting places. During the same trip we also went to Cyprus. I believe those who travel
with Halal Tourism South Africa will enjoy it.”

“Ameer Dien, thank you for a trip that exceeded my expectations in every way. The trip you arranged for me, met and exceeded all my expectations. With next to no notice you were able to arrange my trip back to Riyadh and achieved results where others have failed.
I feel so priveledged to have travelled with Halal Tourism South Africa. All questions was answered in a timely fashion. You have gone beyond the norm, EXCELLENT.
Will recommend Ameer and Halal Tourism South Africa to all my Family and friends. Please let me know if you are organizing a Turkey trip for 2023, my wife and I will definitely try to join you.”
SAAMIAH JARDINE

“I had the pleasure of working with Ameer Dien when making travel arrangements for my brother who was struggling to leave South Africa due to lockdowns and travel bans from the pandemic. Ameer went out of his way to assist us in getting his bookings sorted. He was available every single time we needed him including weekends and late nights. The effort and commitment for what they do at Halal Tourism really reflects in the results you receive. I would highly recommend them for any travel needs.”
SHAFICK AND ANSAAF MAJIET
Traveller
“We travelled with Halal Tourism on their Turkey Tour of October 2019 and would highly recommend them for a wonderful experience and professionalism, from our first interaction to the last.
The accommodation (all 5 star) and the different modes of travel was great. Whenever issues arose, it was dealt with speedily and professionally.
We would gladly travel with them again and cannot endorse them enough for a truly wonderful experience.
SURAYA GRIFFITHS ADAMS
Traveller
“I have previously travelled with Nadeem Williams with a group of tourists, in January 2019. We visited Istanbul, Turkey and Lefke on the Island of Cyprus. We visited many mosques, shrines of saints, and did some very interesting sight-seeing. We crossed the Bosphorus via ferry and visited a town called Yalova. Here we climed the hills that were covered in snow to reach the shrines of a few famous saints. I have no doubt that the tourist who travels with Halal Tourism South Africa will be in good hands and will be well taken care of.”
WAKILA LOUW

“Great service … Will definitely use them in the future again.”
ZUBEIDA VAN ROODT
Traveller
“I travelled with Nadeem Williams to Turkey and Cyprus. We visited many spiritual places, went to
shrines of saints and different masjids.
We went sightseeing, crossed the Bosphorus with a ferry, drove with the train and walked in the
snow to visit shrines in Yalova.
I can assure you that you will be in good hands travelling with Halal Tourism South Africa.”
