About ME
Welcome to Merzouga Birding. I am Moha the local guide and owner of this small local business. I was born and grew up right here in the small village of Merzouga. Because I have lived here all my life, this desert is my home, and I know it very well. I love the birds and nature so much, and my goal is simple: to share the beautiful and special birds that call this place home. I am not a big, busy company; I am just a friendly, local man ready to guide you.
My birdwatching tours are in the amazing, golden Sahara Desert of Morocco, around the famous Merzouga sand dunes including the black rocky desert near the algerian Borders. I offer personal Birding Tours that mix the fun of finding birds with the quiet beauty of the desert. When you choose me, you choose someone who knows the area best. I know all the secret spots and hidden roads, and the places that big groups do not see. This local knowledge gives you the very best chance to find and see special desert birds like the Desert Sparrow and the Greater Hoopoe-Lark…
My tour is always real, patient, and personal. We will take our time, go slow, and enjoy the desert peacefully. I want to share the true beauty of my home with you, so your day is easy and great. When you book with me, you are getting a simple, warm, and true desert adventure with a local friend.
