🌍 Halal Tourism is Redefining Global Travel 🌙

As halal tourism moves from niche to mainstream, Indonesian Muslim travelers are shaping how destinations around the world adapt to faith-based needs.

In collaboration with Vero ASEAN, we conducted a new consumer study revealing that 89% of Indonesian Muslims consider halal food their top travel priority—an insight influencing tourism strategies from Tokyo to Dubai.

The study also found that digital creators play a vital role in inspiring itineraries, while travelers show a growing willingness to pay more for comfort and cultural sensitivity over luxury.
