Ibn Battuta (1304-1368) was a Moroccan Berber Muslim and scholar who has become one  of the most famous travellers of all time. When he was twenty-one years  old, Ibn Battuta set off for Makkah to perform Hajj. He would not  return to Morocco for over twenty years. Over the course of his voyage,  Ibn Battuta traveled to 44 modern countries and traversed nearly 75,000  miles-a distance that easily surpassed his predecessors, as well as  his near contemporary, Marco Polo.
