During my time in Morocco, I hired a guide. Even though I swore I wouldn’t. I just got so worn down, tired of pretending to not hear the calls, tired of being on guard.
When in Fez, and I met Sayid, I succumbed and let him take me around the old medina of Fez, which dates back to 793 AD or something crazy like that.
He took me to all over town, including to the coolest overlook in the city, a bath, and even to the leather tannery.The tannery dates back nearly 1,000 years and still processes hides of animals using traditional techniques.
Here, vats are filled with pigeon poop and veggie dyes to prepare the skin for leather production. On a hot summer day, you can smell it across the medina.

I took a tour in Morocco as well. I won a trip with Intrepid Travel, and had an absolute blast. It was a great break after 9 months of backpacking on my own to have everything planned out and taken are of for you.

I feel the same way! I took a tour in Turkey, and although the tour was terrible, it was SO nice to be told what to do, where to go and how to get there, after backpacking for months!
