Omar grew up in southeastern Morocco in the Rose Valley, Ouarzazate province, to an Amazigh (Berber) family. His grandparents were nomads and his parents passed down the greatest Amazigh culture, traditions and values to their eldest son.
At university Omar studied Italian literature and linguistics. His research was in the Amazigh (Berber) culture. After graduating from university he completed a full year of training at a guide school in the High Atlas Mountains.
Before starting his own company, Omar worked with many large and acclaimed tour companies. He has also traveled internationally, spending time in the Netherlands, France, Great Britain, Indonesia, Scotland, Australia and Canada. Omar speaks fluent Italian, French, Arabic and Berber.
My name is Omar. I was born in a small village in the desert of southern Morocco. I work as a driver/guide and also organize desert tours. I have a lot of experience in the tourism sector.
My passion is learning different languages as in my work I meet many people from different countries and it’s great to speak their languages. With this knowledge, I am able to explain to people our culture and traditions because they are so varied and wonderful.
