MoroccoTours.org Business Scholarship

I’d like to find new ways to connect young Americans to young people all around the world, by supporting opportunities to learn new languages, and serve and study…. That’s always been a critical part of how America engages the world…. Simple exchanges can break down walls between us…. When that happens mistrust begins to fade and our smaller differences no longer overshadow the things that we share. And that’s where progress begins.”

President Barack Obama at a Student Roundtable, Tophane Cultural Center, Istanbul, Turkey, April 7, 2009.

“There is an urgent need for young people from the Middle Eastern and North African region and young people from the United States to understand each other’s realities and cultures.”

“Marvelous Moroccan adventure”

Of course, a guide makes all the difference in the world. Ahmed Hadji is a treasure, a wonderful representative of his country and your agency. Always ready with facts that helped us understand Morocco. Always ready with a smile and a helping hand. We are very grateful. (Read More…)

“It was completely incredible experience”

We’re no jet-setters, but we felt like we were during our recent trip to Morocco arranged by your company.

Each day provided us with new exhilarating and enchanting experiences: the medina and souks with their dusty winding streets; different riads — traditional homes we stayed in; the food — delicious tagines, bread, soups, kebabs, and barbeque; the art and architecture; incredible street life in the squares and small towns; the storks. Well, I could go on and on. (Read More…)
