Azdean Elmoustaquim

Co-Founder

Welcome to Destination Morocco. My name is Azdean Elmoustaquim, I was born and raised in the Imperial city of Marrakech, Morocco. My family hails from the small village of Telouet, on the outskirts of Ouarzazate.

After finishing school, I moved to the United States in 1995, settling in Houston. After a few years, my wife, Khadija Elomari, and I took our love for Morocco and our passion for sharing our homeland with others and created the Destination Morocco tour company. Our goal is to help with the planning of customized travel itineraries to Morocco - whether via private tour, an escorted group tour, or the more individualized FIT (Fully/Flexible Independent Travel) approach.

All tour packages are handcrafted and personalized and guarantee you or your clients will experience Morocco like a native, fall in love with our country, and likely visit time and time again.

We often found that people were enticed by the idea of Morocco, but weren't very aware of what was available there, what they could do and how to prepare.

On each episode, join me as we explore my country's distinct culture, vibrant history, and stunning attractions. Through speaking with locals and guides, you will learn how we travel from place to place, what to expect at each location, and how to make the most of each day. We discuss everything from high-end travel to budget-travel, how to stay… Read More
