A short story about us

Hello, I'm Mebs Merchant—your guide to meaningful travel and founder of

Travel With Moby

With over 40 years of experience in the global travel industry, I’ve planned thousands of holidays, visited more than 160 destinations, and helped people from all walks of life create unforgettable journeys.

But Travel With Moby isn’t just about ticking off places on a map—it’s about connecting with the heart of a destination, embracing local culture, and travelling with purpose. Whether you're exploring the Mediterranean, uncovering hidden treasures in Asia, or seeking a comfortable, well-paced trip that aligns with your over-50 lifestyle, I'm here to assist you in doing it more effectively, intelligently, and with confidence.

✈️ My Journey

I began my career in travel long before the days of online booking and instant deals. I’ve worked in traditional travel agencies, curated high-end itineraries, managed overseas events, and led groups across continents. From bustling souks in Istanbul to serene temples in Kyoto, I’ve gathered not only experiences but also insights—the kind you only gain through personal travel.

Yes...I am a "foodie"
