The Agoda app offers Muslim travellers ease in finding dining options and more

Agoda offers Muslims who love to travel a wealth of information on halal food options and a myriad things to do.

LONDON, ENGLAND

London is not only known for its art and galleries but also its famous landmarks that bring history to life — think Buckingham Palace and The Houses of Parliament.

With over a million Muslims living in London, it is probably the most Muslim-friendly city in Europe.

Halal food can be found on just about every corner and from every part of the Muslim world, including Pakistani, Indian, Arab and African cuisines.

Options include Liman Restaurant which is known for its Arab cuisine, Stax Diner in Carnaby Street which serves American-style halal burgers and waffles, and Pie Republic for halal versions of ubiquitous British pies.

Make the most out of a trip to London by booking tours such as the London by night 90-minute open top bus tour via Things To Do on the Agoda app.

VIENNA, AUSTRIA

The capital city of Austria and the largest city in this culturally-rich European country is considered one of the most livable cities in the world.

With a classical music legacy that extends for hundreds of years, Vienna offers a diversity of attractions and activities for the whole family.

The Agoda App will guide you to beautiful parks, the oldest zoo in the world, great shopping spots, classical concerts, beautiful mosques, as well as delicious halal food options that extend from casual to fine dining.

Consider Turkis Oriental Food and Daily Imbiss as halal restaurants definitely worth including in your itinerary.

ROME, ITALY

The capital of Italy, Rome is a city of artefacts and historical monuments that are centuries old, and should be seen at least once in a lifetime.

From the awe-inspiring Colosseum to The Roman Forum, and from the Trevi Fountain to the Vatican Museum, there is breathtaking architecture and art in every place.

The Agoda app is an indispensable guide to bypassing long queues for the best tours, shopping hotspots and fun for the family.

Rome also boasts a wide variety of halal restaurants, and even delicious snacks like the renowned Italian gelato.

Make a stop at the all-natural halal gelato shop, Frigidarium, to enjoy a wide range of flavours.

PARIS, FRANCE

Home to the Eifel Tower, one of the most recognisable landmarks in the world, Paris is the perfect location to spend some time with family or friends. There is so much to see, enjoy and eat.

Exploring the charming streets, visiting museums like the Louvre or Sacre-Ceour Basilica (which is well known for its breathtaking architecture) and finding the most delicious pastries is easy with the Agoda Paris City Guide.

Paris has an established Muslim community, making it no surprise that it boasts more than 100 halal restaurants that range from fine dining to casual takeaways.

Two wonderfully hospitable halal restaurants worth a visit are Kashmir House, serving delicious Pakistani cuisine, and Sizin for Turkish fare.

AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS

A wonderful mix of historic buildings and contemporary architecture, Amsterdam is a city for walking, cycling and cruising along the canals.

The capital city of Netherlands is home to a large Muslim community — Islam is the second largest religion in the country — which makes finding places to dine very easy.

Grillroom Shoarma and Bazaar Amsterdam offer delicious halal options.

Discover Amsterdam via Things to Do on the Agoda app, ranging from a gentle canal cruise by night to a visit to the Van Gogh Museum. The app even enables you to purchase your tickets and bypass queues.
