Travel Review: Luxury Birthday Trip to Morocco, Culture & Customs, Local Cuisine, Shopping

The most enjoyable part of our trip was our visit to Fez.  We were brought to Old Town Fez and set up in a luxurious Riad. On our first day in Fez, we were treated to a very elaborate tour around the city.  Our driver along with our guide gave us many personalized tours.  We rarely ran into tour groups so our visits were very private.  We were shown some awesome places such as the tanneries and souks.  Our guide shared with us many customs and was extremely friendly.  My girlfriend especially enjoyed haggling with the shops.  They enjoyed her warm personality and were very welcoming in their store.  After we returned from our tour and shopping, we headed to the Riad restaurant for a birthday dinner and the staff ensured it was a special dinner.  I had requested a cake with candles and roses and all was delivered perfectly.  We even returned to a clean and decorated room with a wonderful birthday note.  It was definitely a great surprise.
