Your ornithology guide

Brahim Bakass, a sahraoui from the Draa Valley, is passionate about birds, and is always on the lookout for rare species.  He's the secretary for GOMAC (Groupe Ornithologique du Maroc/ Ornithology Group of Morocco) and has a long history as a bird watching guide.  He shares the knowledge of his secret spots

These voyages are designed à la carte and are as much for amateur bird watchers as for groups of ornithologists and schools.
