Hamza will begin your trip as a perfect guide and end it as a valued friend - We met Hamza when our bus stopped for lunch after a four hour climb up to the top of the Atlas Mountains. Even though my wife and I had traveled in many parts of the world, when we landed in Morocco we felt like strangers in a strange land: this was a country ruled by a king; Islamic mosques called its inhabitants to prayers before the sun came up and four more times every day, the last after the sun has gone down; the Arabic language was indecipherable, everything from menus to traffic signs written in what seemed to be meaningless scribbles; and Western media had stuffed our ears with stories of the cruel punishments doled out by a repressive Islamic religion. Hamza's grasp of English, knowledge of Morocco's history and culture and capability in arranging every aspect of our trip from sleeping in inexpensive riads that were resplendent in wood carvings and colorful mosaics, to finding the means to traverse remote legs of our travels where transport seemed impossible, to introducing us to fellow Moroccans who shared their way of life...anything and everything that made our month in Morocco a dream come true. If you are like us, you don't rely much on guides when you travel, but like us you may be full of apprehensions about this Islamic nation in far northern Africa. Hamza's travel services will allay all those fears and leave you with a love for this country as deep as the affection you will feel for your friend, Hamza. Whether you want a guide to accompany you or just someone you can ring up and consult when you get stuck, Hamza will be there for you.
