"My fiancée and I chose to visit Morocco with MOBT. We heard about them from a friend that enjoyed an awesome trip organized by them. We didn’t regret our choice, we spent an unforgettable stay in Morocco! I personally visited Morocco in the past with my parents, but I didn’t really visit the country and discovered the culture, like I did this time…" read more

"I can definitely say that for myself, and especially for my mother, a first-time visitor to Morocco and Fes, the Artisan tour was such a wonderful and unique opportunity to interact with the people keeping the traditions of Fes alive! We really enjoyed speaking to the artisans, watching them make products in front of us, and getting the inside view of many of these old shops and businesses. Both our guide and interpreter were great, they went above and beyond for our little tour, and were very patient with all of the questions we asked. We really enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to others who want to experience an authentic Old Medina. Thanks again to the MOBT Team!"  Saltz Tosca ~ USA

MOBT Summer Abroad Program
  • Morocco Off The Beaten Track would not organize student programs to Morocco if we would not experience that it is safe. During the past three years MOBT facilitated several programs and cultural tours.
  • Morocco is a well established and safe travel destination. It receives annually between 1 and 2 million foreign tourists, according to statistics released by the tourism ministry (www.arabicnews.com).
  • Peace Corps or Fulbright would not be in Morocco if they did not consider it to be safe. Currently, there are over 200 Peace Corps volunteers in the country, meaning these individuals who are often in their mid twenties are living on their own in rural areas.
  • Morocco Off The Beaten Track regularly contacts embassies in Rabat to receive their travel advice (eg. US embassy, 10000 Rabat, 2 Ave de Marrakech, Tel.:762265).
  • Participants have a reading list, group activities and presentations about the background of the country and what they need to be aware of.
  • We organize travel as a group with private vehicles and experienced program leaders.
  • Please be aware that the crime rates in the EU and the USA are several times higher than in Morocco (nationmaster.com).
