What we’re building
A softer way to find your people on the way.
A new community section inside RoamSmart for Muslim travelers. Individuals, groups and families can find travel buddies, join group trips and discover Muslim-friendly places to visit. It includes a dedicated track for families with children on the autism spectrum.
Rihla’s broader community experience is planned. The live subscriber benefit is full destination details and budget breakdowns; the other product systems described below are not available yet.
Who it’s for

Groups
Friends, sisters' groups, brothers' groups, and community organizations planning trips together.
