Who We Are

Since our launch in 2005, Manasik Tours Ltd has had one mission, assisting Muslims across Ireland in fulfilling the 5th pillar of Islam known as The Hajj and the smaller Umrah pilgrimage.

Ibrahim Al-Kaddo founded the company. As a British born Iraqi, who spent much of his childhood in Ireland, he has a very diverse and interesting background, with extensive experience when it comes to travel as a practising Muslim.

As it is compulsory for every Muslim to attend the Hajj pilgrimage at least once in a lifetime, Ibrahim’s vision was to provide a premier service that will allow pilgrims to concentrate on a successful and comfortable pilgrimage.  Manasik Tours is Ireland’s largest Hajj and Umrah agent, and being officially accredited by the Ministry of Hajj means that we issue our own visa and that our pilgrims are fully supported and protected by the Ministry of Hajj in Saudi Arabia.

‘Serving Allah’s guests’ being the company’s motto, has lead Manask Tours to grow from strength to strength, providing quality packages that exceed expectations for ten years.

Now, in 2014, we are expanding our services through our sister company Orient Travel to offer unique Halal holidays to the Middle East and Far East.  Experience holidays and tours to many different destinations such as Turkey, Malaysia, Thailand, United Arab Emirates as well as many more exciting destinations.

Whether it is just a flight you are looking for or a holiday of a lifetime that will offer a unique experience while catering for your spiritual needs, Orient Travel can help. You can rest assured that with our knowledge and experience while also holding the Commission for Aviation Regulation licence we will match the perfect holiday tailored to you.
