Jalan-Jalan Muslim Friendly: Promoting Muslim-Friendly Tourism in New Zealand

Recently, Tourism New Zealand had their first-ever collaboration with Klook, a campaign designed to spotlight New Zealand as an inclusive, Muslim-friendly travel destination for Southeast Asian travellers.

The Brief: Promoting Inclusive Travel

Tourism New Zealand (TNZ) wanted to raise awareness around halal travel experiences and inclusive itineraries across the country, targeting Muslim travelers through a culturally relevant campaign powered by Klook.
