About this trip

It such a heart-warming trip. I really enjoyed it ❤️ as a person coming from Moslem Majority country to Diversity country, I came with many fears and concerns, especially as Moslem. Then Ma'wa Collective present this trip for me & for us, to keep us safe with aligned Islamic values. I'm so glad that I have been experiencing this once in a life journey. I hope I'll do it over n over again, in another time. 

Thanks Ma'wa & Nada (the owner)✨ May Allah gather us again, in Dunya wal Jannah. Inshaa Allah.

North Cascades Summer Trip

Banff was an absolute DREAM!!!
Going with Ma’wa was the best decision I made! Not only do you have you the trip planned and organized for you but you get to meet amazing beautiful sisters from all of the world!! All you need to do is pack your bags and get ready for the best nature getaway we’ve all been looking for except you get to have a safe place with sisterhood and absolutely amazing food! 10/10 highly recommended!

Ma'wa Banff Summer Trip

Great coordination and well planned trip. One of the memorable one for me. 

Ma’wa truly is the place to be if you’re looking for community and meaningful connection. The Banff 2025 weekend trip was incredible — from hiking up to Lake Agnes to gathering around a warm campfire under the stars, every moment was worth it. It was the perfect escape from the daily grind, beautifully rooted in faith, sisterhood, and compassion. 
10/10 recommend!

This was truly a bucket list destination, and Ma’wa made this trip an absolute dream! Everything from meals, to itinerary, to day-to-day schedule exceeded my expectations and made traveling to another country an easy process! Ma’wa continues to be a safe haven for women who want to travel, explore nature, and connect with other like-minded individuals. Overall, I definitely recommend a Ma’wa trip. 

This trip was more than a getaway — it was a soulful retreat surrounded by nature, sisterhood, and reflection. 
from the moment we drove onto Skyline Drive, to the awe-inspiring views in the Park Mountains reminded me of Allah’s magnificence. 

Each overlook of the hikes felt like a moment of reflection — inviting me to pause and truly see the signs of the Creator in the landscape around us.

The sound of cascading water, the cool shade, and the unity of walking side by side with sisters in faith made it a deeply memorable part of the day.

My most treasured moment? The sunrise and sunset. Watching the day come to life and wrap itself up in golden silence felt like stepping into another world — a sacred space suspended between time and light.

And it wasn’t just the beauty — it was how we got there. I owe that awe-struck moment to Shajeah, whose knowledge and effort made it happen. She found the perfect viewing point and quietly led us there, even though I know how hard it was for her to be up so early and make that slot fit into an already full itinerary. Her dedication gave us the chance to witness the miracle of a new day being born. That sunrise wasn't just a moment — it was a message: you are safe, you belong, you are capable of more.

Laila, with her quiet devotion to everyone’s comfort, made sure the entire trip flowed smoothly. Her joyful energy was contagious — every laugh, every shared bite, every “Are you okay?” wove into a feeling of genuine care. She made it feel easy, even when I know it took a lot of behind-the-scenes effort.

This trip wasn’t just a visit to a national park — it was a reintroduction to myself in a new land. Shenandoah became the backdrop to a personal and spiritual awakening. I’ll carry those sunrise colors with me, along with the trust, encouragement, and love I felt from Ma’wa.

I came back not only with memories, but with momentum — to explore more, to rise early for more sunrises, and to say yes to what once felt unfamiliar.

With a heart full of gratitude, thank you . 



Shenandoah National Park

Great time, meeting people from my city. 
was a great experience- would do again

Ma'wa Washington Day Hike

Didn’t know such a beautiful hike/trail and view existed in my backyard. Hike was beginner level and perfect for me. Leaders managed a huge group with ease. We had breaks, a bathroom stop, and great weather. Lunch was provided and it was delicious. If you’re not active or a hiker but want to start, this is a great way to introduce yourself slowly and get into the habit. And the views are so nice. 

Ma’wa NYC Walk, Run or Ride: A Nature Day in Central Park

Ma'Wa has yet to disappoint! This hike brought together so many different women of all ages and backgrounds. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know so many wonderful women that live in Washington. The weather was perfect, the food was delicious, and the company kept was most memorable. The fact that we were all in a text group chat already made it so easy to connect with folks after the hike too! 10/10! If you're a muslim woman who enjoys the outdoors, you HAVE to experience a Ma'Wa trip! 

The trip, the company & accommodations were so pleasant & thoroughly enjoyable.  Ma'wa organization was professional in managing program signup and trip navigation.  Great travel opportunity !

I loved being able to do a day trip! Met lots of amazing Muslim women and can’t wait to join the next one inshallah 

Ma'wa x VELA: Earth Day Hike

Great time awesome people and wonderful memories! I recommend it for all the ladies who need to be outdoors and enjoy the nature 

Catskills Spring Trip

I had a wonderful time; you get to meet so many beautiful souls. The age range of our group was wide, so we got to meet sisters from all walks of life. I really enjoyed it, and I cannot wait to sign up for more, inshallah.

Death Valley Spring Trip

We had a great time connecting, hiking, eating delicious food, and  resting in comfortable accommodations. 

Life changing, my entire life philosophy changed because of this trip! Thank you for organizing it <3

Shenandoah Backpacking Trip

It was a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and she fed us very well. The sunrise hike was mesmerizing. Also, there was never a dull moment. 

Alhamdulillah, this trip allowed me to connect with Allah and witness the beauty of His creation, the Grand Canyon. Meeting inspiring Muslim women from diverse backgrounds was an unforgettable experience. Truly grateful for this blessing! 

Arizona Winter Trip

Trip with Mawa collective was one of the best experiences I ever had where not only I got to enjoy the outdoors with a group of beautiful women but also we had a good time together from prepping things, sharing our experiences, having heart to heart conversations to praying together. Nadah is awesome, she meticulously organized the trip and was open to accommodate any last minute changes. It was a smooth experience and for the first time I don’t have to worry about anything or felt the need to research as she made sure to provide all the information. She was reachable all the time even before the trip started and prepared us for what to expect. The whole energy of this trip was so positive and relaxing, I made good friends, and my faith got more stronger. I learnt a lot on this trip, it helped me to come out of the boundaries I created around myself and made me challenge myself. I feel I have grown so much after this trip. I’d definitely be coming back and doing more trips with Mawa. As I’m writing I feel my words are not justifying on how amazing the experience I had. I pray for Mawa to grow bigger and bigger and reach out to more women and make impact in their life. 

Colorado Winter Trip

An unforgettable and amazing experience. Will love to do it again. Hopefully soon Inshallah.

Santa Barbara Winter Trip

I had a great time with a group wonderful muslimahs. Accommodation was superb and the organization was awesome. Thanks for facilitating it. 

Oregon Winter Trip

Alhamdulillah, it was an amazing trip with the ladies all over the US. It was so much connected with sisters and nature! 

Zion Thanksgiving Trip

this trip was the refresh I needed. Good company and  beautiful nature around me. Highly recommend to other Muslim women who want to seek refuge in nature with a group of like-minded women!

Santa Barbara Fall Trip

It was first time mawa mums and it was my first time travel solo but I really enjoyed it, every thing was amazing.

Mendocino Fall Glamping Trip

I had a great time with all Mawa Mamas we had fun together, I feel like it was a dream. I really enjoyed every time. It was my first time to travel solo.

Ma'wa Mamas: San Diego Retreat

Loved this trip!! I will be checking out the east coast because of this trip!! 

New England Summer Trip

Nadah is quite organized and improvised on the itinerary when the weather wasn’t ideal. I met amazing people and made so many new friendships. I would definitely sign up for another trip and recommend to a friend as well!

Hi Marwa, we sincerely apologize for your experience on this trip. The foundation of Ma’wa Collective and our Trip Experiences is sisterhood and the bond between Muslim women exploring the outdoors together. What you’ve described is definitely not the culture that Ma’wa Collective prides itself on and has worked hard to build over the last 2 years. 

Our Santa Barbara trips are consistently one of our most positively received trips, so much so that this was our 4th time offering the trip. Our itineraries are meant to offer a structured series of appropriate activities to guide participants through the weekend. We hear you that this was not adequately offered and executed on your trip due to unforeseen circumstances just a few days before the start of the trip. We take complete accountability for not appropriately adjusting the planned itinerary and logistics for your weekend to accommodate these circumstances, and deeply regret the negative impact this had on you and your group. 

We’d love another opportunity to show you what Ma’wa truly stands for and give you the trip experience that you were seeking, and would be happy to offer you priority and discounted registration on a future Ma’wa Collective trip. Please feel free to contact us at mawa.collective@gmail.com. 


I met awesome ladies whom I wouldn’t have been able to meet outside of Ma’wa 

Despite this, 
The itinerary was poorly planned.
The chosen hike  was inappropriate for the weather. 
The “beginner” description was misleading. This hike is moderate per All trails. The weather made it even harder due to direct sun. 

The team leader explained the concept of “building in flexibility” 
This concept is nice but we ended up waiting around and changing plans multiple times for people who do other activities alone but the leader wished they can join the group’s activities i.e. group dinner etc. 
so we ended up with plenty of confusion and frustration. 
I also felt not respected since the leader made sure to wait/ satisfy people who are disrespectful of others and not keen to be with the group. 

There was a bully who made inappropriate comments to people  including myself and when I wanted to talk to them in the  leader’s presence to call them out on their behavior, the leader dismissed my concern and didn’t show support.
This environment encourages bullies and disrespectful people and make decent humans avoid confrontation to avoid the “ drama” 

Unfortunately, I spent over a grand  for this and I left the trip thinking that it was not worth it and I will not do any more of Ma’wa trips.  I could have better trip experience for less money with other  companies who have have better professionalism, management and leadership skills. 

I am sad to say that after a trip that I was looking forward to.

Santa Barbara Summer Trip

A little less micromanaging for a group of adult women is the only thing I would suggest to a very well thought out trip. Great hikes, good location.

We had a memorable trip. It was a great opportunity to disconnect from everyday life and build community. One of the hikes was more difficult than I expected it to be. 

Loring Cottage Weekend Trip

I had a lovely time and met some amazing people. I would definitely do it again whether it's in Ontario or Canada. 

Everything was so organized and I loved the nature and hiking. I met everyone for the first time, but we all got along so well. My mom had so much fun and she’s already looking forward to the next trip! I can’t wait to attend more trips with Mawa!

Ma'wa Mother-Daughter Retreat

This trip was much needed. It was very well-planned and I met some of the most inspiring women here. 

New York Cabin Trip

I thoroughly enjoyed the hiking trip! It was wonderful to spend time with other like-minded women in nature.

Met so many wonderful women Alhamdulillah! Nadah did an amazing job organizing this trip. Great location for connecting with nature and Allah.

Amazing trip, accommodating leader, I had a wonderful time and I would definitely travel with Ma'wa again!
