About Us

Explore the World with Purpose

We help Muslim travelers find halal food, prayer times and Muslim-friendly places wherever they go. HalalTrip is built by the team behind CrescentRating, which has set the standard for Muslim-friendly travel since 2008.

✦ OUR STORY

Born from a Traveler's Need

Our founders started with one question: "Why is it so hard for Muslim travelers to find reliable, Muslim-friendly travel information?"

Traveling as a Muslim often meant spending hours researching whether a hotel was Muslim-friendly, if halal food was available nearby, or where the closest mosque might be. The information was scattered, unreliable, and rarely in one place.

So they built HalalTrip, by Muslim travelers for Muslim travelers: halal restaurants, mosques, prayer times and Muslim-friendly hotels, in one place.

Great app. It helps you calculate your prayer times, especially when you are traveling. It calculates them from your starting point to your destination. Very useful for anyone who is often a musafir. Jazakallahu khairan.
