Islamic Holidays & Islamic Tours
Alongside Hajj and Umrah, we arrange Islamic tours to the great sites of Muslim history — and we guide you around the Islamic holidays themselves, which shape when it is worth travelling and what you will find when you arrive.

Islamic holidays in Turkey
Ramazan and Kurban Bayramı, the Kandil nights, and what they mean for travel.

Also arranged on request — tell us where you would like to go.
Two things people mean by Islamic holidays
The phrase does double duty, and both meanings matter when you are planning a trip. There are the Islamic holidays themselves — Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, the Kandil nights and Ashura — which change what is open, how busy the roads are and what you will witness in a Muslim country. And there are Islamic tours: journeys built around the heritage of Muslim civilisation, which many families take during those same holiday periods.
We cover both. If you are travelling during a Bayram, we will tell you what to expect. If you want to walk through the history of Al-Andalus or pray at Al-Aqsa, we will build the itinerary.
Where we go
[Al-Aqsa](/al-aqsa-packages) — guided tours focused on worship at the third holiest site in Islam, often combined with Jordan.
[Palestine](/palestine-packages) — the wider Holy Land: Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Jericho, the Dead Sea and Ramallah.
[Spain](/spain-islamic-holidays) — Andalusia and the legacy of Al-Andalus: the Alhambra, the Mezquita, Seville and Toledo.
[Turkey](/turkish-islamic-holidays) — the Islamic holidays as they are kept in Turkey, and what that means for travellers.
Morocco and Jordan — arranged on request; ask and we will put an itinerary together.
How we arrange them
Every trip is tailored rather than picked off a shelf. We arrange the flights, the hotels, the transport and the guides, and we choose accommodation and dining with Muslim travellers in mind — prayer facilities and halal food sorted without you having to ask. Tell us the destination, your dates and who is travelling, and a consultant will come back with an itinerary and honest pricing.

Islamic Holidays — your questions
- What do you mean by Islamic holidays?
- Two things, and we cover both. First, the Islamic holidays themselves — Eid al-Fitr (Ramazan Bayramı), Eid al-Adha (Kurban Bayramı), the Kandil nights and Ashura — which affect opening hours, transport and atmosphere in Muslim countries. Second, Islamic tours: guided journeys through the heritage of Muslim civilisation, which many families take during those holiday periods.
- Which destinations do you offer?
- Guided tours to Al-Aqsa and Palestine, Islamic heritage tours of Spain and Andalusia, and travel around the Islamic holidays in Turkey. We also arrange Morocco and Jordan on request. If you have somewhere else in mind, ask — we may be able to arrange it.
- Are these trips suitable for families?
- Yes. We regularly arrange family itineraries with suitable hotels, halal dining, easy access to prayer and a comfortable pace. Tell us your group and we'll tailor it.
- How do I book?
- Enquire with your preferred destination and dates and a consultant will design a tailored itinerary with honest pricing. Nothing is payable until you're ready to confirm.
