Revival Retreats Reviews 20

I was hesitant to book at first as I wasn’t sure what to expect but the staff I spoke to online before booking were reassuring and energetic. I’m SO glad I went, had an amazing eye opening time, felt like I was with a family away from home and now I have made (international) friends for life too. I would encourage anyone who is thinking about going to honestly give it a go and become part of the Revival Community now (Welcome!). I have been back 2 weeks and already spoken to so many people about my experience. Every last detail is planned with balance and Zoheb really is thinking about giving travellers the best experience, he curates trips intentionally, with local guides and Islam at the centre, you will leave feeling spiritually renewed one way or another.

My very first trip with Revival Retreats was in October 2025 and would you believe it if I told you I joined them AGAIN a mere two months later in Morocco! Let me tell you, RUN, don’t walk to sign up for the Alchemy of Morocco. Zoheb, founder of Revival Retreats was greeted warmly by locals left and right, no matter where we were in the alleys of Fes-this shows me the years of trust and positive reputation built with the community there. That we weren’t simple strangers passing through but friends of Zoheb, eager to learn, listen, and share together. If you want your heart cracked open-to be filled with the dhikr that reverberates throughout the masajid, or an experience under the shimmering stars in the Sahara desert, if your desire is to have your soul enriched with the hospitality and beauty that is Morocco -this is for YOU. Peace and blessings. -R

So grateful to Revival Retreats for curating such a thoughtful experience. Each day was beautifully planned and intentional, and I found every moment enriching in its own way. I’m so glad to have experienced Morocco in the best way, with the best people, and to have built such meaningful connections along the way. Truly a unique way to experience Morocco while building deeper spiritual ties to the places you visit. You’ll leave feeling as though you’ve built a lasting connection with Fes, the City of Saints—a spiritual home you can always return to.

I had the good pleasure to attend the Uzbekistan retreat and it was such an unforgettable experience! Revival Retreats did an amazing job at creating an itinerary that made the most of all the sightseeing and as well curating a spiritually enriching experience that leaves an impact in memory and heart. I loved meeting and getting to know my group mates that I otherwise would have never met. Also, we dined very well and accommodation was great 👌. I highly recommend this sort of retreat to everyone, just once in their life at least, because it gave such a beautiful added flavor to traveling. I love to recall my trip, it was so fun and exciting, and I left with my heart full and wanting more. Special thanks to our Revival leaders and teachers!

I’ve been to Umrah two times now alhamdulilah. The 3rd being my first trip with Revival Retreats. I can say it was truly a trip of a lifetime with bonds that’ll remain forever. The entire Umrah was organised so seamlessly - every detail taken care of with ease and intention. What stood out most was how quickly it felt like a family. The energy was relaxed, supportive, and incredibly easy-going, which made the journey even more meaningful.

From the spiritual insights to the beautiful connections formed along the way, Revival Retreats delivered an experience that was both transformative and effortless. I’m so grateful for the guidance, the organisation, and the sincerity they put into every moment. Highly recommend to anyone seeking a deeply enriching and unforgettable Umrah experience. 🌙✨

I went to umrah with Revival Retreats and I think it was one of the best experiences I’ve had. The organizers are so thoughtful and they really made sure that we all got the best exposure to the holy sights and Saudi culture. Cannot recommend it enough!

Alhamdulillah, my Umrah trip with Revival Retreats was amazing. Zoheb and Bakeel put in so much effort to make everything smooth and stress free. Ustaadh Isaaq and Ustaadh Owais shared beautiful reminders and guidance that made the experience truly special. May Allah accept our umrah and our efforts.

It was a spiritual and memorable journey, may Allah reward everyone involved for their hard work and sincerity.

I could not have asked for a better first Umrah experience, everything was organised with the ihsan. Each detail was well thought out with the purpose of gaining a closer connection to Allah swt and His messenger Muhammad peace and blessings upon him. The opportunity to journey the same path ways that Rasullah (s) went on, was an honour and a deeply spiritual experience.

Having Ustath Owais our local guide was so special as he radiated passion and love for our Prophet (s) like no one I've ever met. Then having Ustath Muhammad Issaq turn the lessons learnt from the Seerah into how we can use it in our day to day lives which was genuinely such a life changing perspective to have.

I met some incredible people along this journey, who are now life long friends from around the world, that I would have never met if it wasn't for Revival Retreat. As someone that came alone, I never once felt like I was doing it alone. The actual Umrah experience was seamless, Allah placed so much barakeh in the whole process. There was an emphasis on making sure our fist sight of the Kaaba was special, we were guided so our first sight was a full view and we could make our duas uninterrupted.

Special mention to Zoheb and Bakeel, they both made sure our experience was unforgettable. Great organisation skills and ability to pivot when needed.

Could not fault Revival Retreats, would 100% recommend booking with them, I look forward to joining many more retreats with them!

I had the blessing to attend the Revival Retreat in Morocco this May and it was truly one of the most special experiences of my life. Everything from the organization, logistics and communication to the accommodation and daily schedule was handled with great care, sincerity and professionalism.

The program itself was a perfect balance of spiritual learning, reflection and exploration. Every moment, from the peaceful mornings in Fès to the nights under the desert sky, carried so much barakah. The Ustadhs and team created an environment of knowledge, humility, and love.. a space that allowed for both personal growth and connection.

What touched me most was the warmth and harmony within the group, the attention to detail and the genuine care from the Revival Retreats team throughout the journey. It wasn’t just a trip, it was a spiritual journey of the heart.

I’m deeply grateful to Revival Retreats, the teachers, and the whole team for making this experience possible. May Allah bless you all and allow many others to benefit from your efforts.

Highly recommended for anyone seeking reflection, learning and renewal.

Alhamdulillah, what an unforgettable and truly blessed experience this first Umrah retreat was. It was my very first Umrah, and I couldn’t have asked for a better group to go with. The team was so organized, kind, and intentional about every detail-from logistics to spiritual guidance.

Even though I went alone, I never once felt alone. The group atmosphere was warm and filled with genuine care. Having our local guide, Bakeel, and our scholars, Ustaad Owais and Ustaad Isaaq, made every moment meaningful and spiritually uplifting.

Special thanks to Zoheb, the organizer, for his warmth, patience, and dedication. You created something truly special for this first Umrah cohort. I’m already looking forward to joining another retreat in the future, inshaAllah

May Allah reward you all abundantly and continue to bless this beautiful initiative. 🌙🤍

Alhamdulillah alhamdulillah alhamdulillah for this experience, it truly exceeded every single one of my expectations. Every detail was carefully planned and executed, from the historic sites where we were able to trace the footsteps of our beloved Prophet (saw) to the seerah lessons and insights from the wonderful ustaads. I felt so spiritually fulfilled and renewed throughout the entire trip, it’s truly remarkable to be in the presence of people who live and breathe the Prophetic tradition, and are able to impart their wisdom through both their words and actions. All the members of this trip shared such a beautiful bond and I know I’ve made friends for life who will continue to uplift and guide me towards the truth. Thank you so much to all the organizers and teachers - Zoheb, Bakeel, Abdullah, Ustaad Owais, and Ustaad Isaaq. I pray that Allah swt grants you continuous success, knowledge, and the ability to bring more hearts together for the sake of Allah. I hope to be back for another retreat so soon inshaAllah, and until then, will be reminiscing about this experience!

My Umrah trip would not have been the same without their care and loving guidance. They had every detail down to the T. Thank you to the entire Revival Retreats team for making one our biggest dreams in life so amazing. Now I have lasting memories and great friends.

Alhamdulillah I had the most amazing journey with the most amazing group. I would recommend revival retreats to everyone and iA will travel with them again. From hosting, to caring for us, to feeding us, to organising the trip, to curating the itinerary, everything was perfect and very organised. I could not fault them.

They thought about every single one of us everyday. They went above and beyond. Truly felt like I was travelling with my family. It broke my heart leaving the team and leaving the people I met along this journey. I know iA I’ve made friends for life. I make heartfelt dua for the team may Allah grant them jannatul firdaus and accept all their duas. Allahs divine planning was very evident within this trip. This was my ultimate favourite umrah trip.

The teachers were phenomenal. The classes were inspirational. The love of the prophet saw oozed off our ustaads. May they be granted more and may we also gain love for the prophet saw and incorporate sunnahs into our lives. I’m sure this trip will be life-changing. I’m ready for the next trip and ready to do umrah with them all again. I had hoped to write this review within Masjid an-Nabawi, but may the barakah of that sacred place be carried within these words.
Special thanks to Zoheb, Bakeel, Abdullah, Ustaad Mohammed Isaaq and Ustaad Owais.

If you’re reading this, book that trip! It will iA change your life and bring you more than what you could even ask for.

Words hardly capture the depth of the experience I had during this travel and spiritual retreat with revival. From the moment I arrived, I could feel the intentionality and authenticity behind every detail — it was truly curated with soul.

Each day offered a perfect balance of inner reflection, cultural immersion, and meaningful connection. The facilitators created a safe, nurturing space that encouraged personal growth. Every activity — from classes and mindful movement to sacred shrines/ceremonies (inshaad) in morroco and community sharing — felt genuine, heart-centered, and beautifully aligned.

The retreat also offered the most nourishing, delicious food — lovingly prepared and deeply connected to the local culture. Sharing these meals together became part of the healing, grounding experience.

What made it even more special was the chance to connect with local people and support locally owned businesses. Learning from them, hearing their stories, and witnessing their way of life added an incredible layer of authenticity and gratitude to the journey. It reminded me how travel can truly uplift communities when done mindfully.

I left feeling lighter, clearer, and profoundly renewed — as though a deeper part of me had been awakened. This retreat wasn’t just a getaway; it was a turning point in how I see and live my life.

If you’re seeking something beyond the ordinary — an experience that nourishes your soul, delights your senses, and connects you to both self and community — I can’t recommend this retreat enough. I have now done one in Morroco and Uzbekestan and I wish I could do this again and again.

I went on a trip to Morocco with Revival Retreats and it was excellent! Well curated as a tourist trip and as a spiritual journey. Accommodations, activities and food were all well chosen. Would definitely go on another trip with the company!

A great retreat travel group that encompasses a well rounded experience in getting a feel for the place of visit and its culture while integrating Islamic teachings. From the carefully chosen hotels/Riads to the well established itinerary, Revival Retreats has done an excellent job in serving the Muslim community from all over the world and catering those from all walks of life.

Really well organised and thought out program. The evening program was literally magical.

I attended the Morocco Retreat in February 2025, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The retreat offered the perfect balance between exploring Morocco’s breathtaking beauty and connecting deeply with its rich Islamic history and culture.

The organisation and programme were exceptional—well-structured, engaging, and spiritually uplifting. I formed lasting friendships with many of the attendees, and we still keep in touch to this day.

A particular highlight was Ustadh Mohammed Isaaq, whose daily classes were filled with wisdom, sincerity, and relevance. He connected with each of us on a personal level and brought warmth, humour, and humility to every interaction (plus he was just one of the lads!).

This retreat left a lasting impact on me, and I’m already planning to join another Revival Retreat later this year or early next, Inshallāh.

My trip to Uzbekistan with Revival Retreats in June was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From start to finish, everything was so thoughtfully organised — each stop, each day, and every small detail felt intentional and seamless.
I was deeply moved by the opportunity to experience traditional Uzbek culture and uncover a part of my Islamic heritage that I hadn’t even realized was missing. It was both a spiritual and cultural journey, filled with moments of reflection and connection. The teachings and gems of wisdom shared by Shaykh Mustafa Briggs added so much depth and meaning to every place we visited.
What stood out most, though, was the care and warmth of the Revival Retreats team. They went above and beyond to accommodate every request, always with patience, kindness, and sincerity. It never felt like just a trip — it felt like being part of a family.
I came home with new knowledge, new friendships, and a renewed sense of connection to my faith and history. I can’t recommend Revival Retreats enough for anyone seeking a journey that nourishes both the heart and soul.
