Meet Ainabi Tours’ organizers and leaders:

Hailing from Morocco, Brahim Ainabi grew up in the small rural village of Ait Ouffi in the beautiful High Atlas region of southern Morocco. His family has been in the hospitality business for over four decades. Whether it’s the city routes or the treks off the beaten path, Brahim is an excellent navigator, often putting travelers at ease. And when he says, “Welcome to our home. It’s yours now.” – He means it!

Sarah Young, originally from Beloit, Wisconsin, found her way to Morocco as a Peace Corps volunteer. She went there with ultruistic goals of righting the ails of this “developing nation,” and learned instead that Morocco had so much to offer and to teach her. She quickly fell in love with Moroccan culture – and with Brahim! They were married in a traditional Berber ceremony, surrounded by family and friends.

In 2010, Sarah and Brahim relocated to New York City. They travel to Morocco every year and love to share the unique local culture – and their lifelong home – with others.

Friend of Sarah and Brahim, Ann Robideaux is a world traveler who has organized numerous trips abroad and has lived and worked around the world. Together, they are covering all the bases to ensure that you have an enjoyable and safe journey.

Airfare not included. Must arrive in Casablanca by 12pm on June 20, 2014.
