Hi,

We just returned from a phenomenal 10-day tour of Morocco. We found our guide Moha through a posting on a Website, and he subsequently sent me half-a-dozen references, one in my own hometown whom I met for coffee. After speak to Moha by email and phone and then meeting his reference in person, I felt quite comfortable booking him for our trip. He helped me plan our itinerary and booked hotels for us. Our itinerary was: Marrakesh - Ouarzazate - Tinghir - Merzouga - Midelt - Fez - Rabat - Casablanca.

Moha picked us up from the airport with his driver Ali and a 4x4 Toyota Land Cruiser. He stayed with us the whole time as we sped across southern Morocco, stopping in tiny Berber villages along the way. He also arranged a 2-day camel trek into the desert, along with sandboarding - one of the most amazing experiences we have ever had.

Moha speaks Berber, Classical Arabic, Moroccan Arabic, French, English and Spanish, and has a BA degree in Linguistics from the University of Meknes. He was a knowledgeable, friendly and very competent guide.

We never felt uncomfortable with Moha or Ali, and in fact we became very good friends with both of them. If we ever took a local guide in one of the big cities (local guides are required by law in each city), Moha personally introduced us to him in advance. Ali himself owns the Toyota and always made sure it was clean, functioning and safely guarded.

Moha even arranged a cell phone for us, and texted us while we were with local guides to make sure everything was OK.

Due to Moha's knowledge and hard work, we felt like guests in Morocco, not tourists. He introduced us to numerous locals in a way that you are never able to in groups. We had tea with a Berber woman who lives in a cave and has 11 children. As Moha put it, She has very little money but a very big heart.

This trip really put into perspective the diversity of life in our world, and we returned to Morocco amazed in every way; by the rich culture, geography, language, cuisine, and hospitality. We could never have had such an amazing experience had we not had the good fortune of finding Moha.

I would recommend to contact Moha for any of your forthcoming trip to Moha.You can to Moha through:email:mohaodyssey@yahoo.comcell/phone:00212 69524748

hi there,

based on your glowing testimonial for Moha I will contact him for assistance with a short trip I am planning. Can you give me any indication of the costs he might charge. I have been to Morocco several times and so know how important it is to establish realistic costs before hiring someone's services. I'm on a pretty tight budget but am not mean ! I need someone to drive me from Marrakech to Tazenakht, stay in Tezenakht for 2 days, and to interpret for me in Berber. The whole trip would probably be for 3-4 days. I'd be grateful for any steer you could give me. regards and thankyou.
