They were joined by journalists and online influencers from France, the UK, Germany, Sweden Turkey and Morocco. Altogether, the international group was made up of more than 40 participants accompanied by a team of HalalBooking staff from their headquarters in the UK and overseas offices.

The group was hosted by two of Marrakech’s top halal-friendly hotels: Le Vizir Center Park & Resort and Mogador Palace Agdal & Spa. They visited other halal-friendly hotels, villas with fully secluded pools and riads in the city and also had an opportunity to experience the many attractions of Marrakech including the old medina with its famous Jemaa El Fna Square, the beautiful Bahia Palace, the impressive Koutoubia Mosque and the Majorelle Gardens, an oasis of calm from the bustling city.

Ufuk Seçgin, chief marketing officer, HalalBooking.com, said, “Marrakech is a fantastic destination for Halal-conscious guests who are seeking a city break. Morocco is relatively new to the Halal-friendly travel sector, and we are working hand in hand with our hotel partners to offer the services and facilities, which our guests require. This was a great opportunity for us to bring together agency partners, journalists and online influencers to enable them to experience at first hand the facilities of the many hotels, villas and riads and the many attractions, which Marrakech has to offer.”
