Your journey to Allah begins here... Holidays and Flights to Worldwide Destinations Hajj and Umrah Specialists www.dometours.com
A WARM WELCOME Dome Tours International was established in 2002 to facilitate the journey of Hajj for those who are seeking to complete the fifth pillar of Islam and enjoy a life changing experience. Since then, it has built its reputation as a leading Hajj & Umrah service provider by helping thousands realise their dreams of journeying to the House of Allah (SWT). A few years after offering a Hajj service, we began to facilitate travel for Umrah, leading onto tours, holidays, honeymoons, flights, and hotels. The company has grown from strength to strength and despite its expansion and gradual growth, the principle of serving one's customer with sincerity and empathy remains deeply embedded within the team. From an office with 2 desks to an outlet in the heart of London, we operate as market leaders in the field of Hajj, Umrah, Honeymoons and Tours to destinations worldwide. This brochure provides an insight into Dome Tours, our trading brand TRAVIVA, and the services we offer. I would like to take this opportunity to thank my co-workers, the Hajj team and it gives me great pleasure to thank you for taking an interest in our services.
