a walk around the daunting old town, medina, is something which will stay with you for life. the thouands of alleys all interlocked and stuffed with people and animals. i would recommend walking around on your own for a bit, it is inevitable that you will get lost, then just before you begin to panic take up the offer from one of the guides and they will show you the way to the tannery and then out the gates for £1. it is likely that they will speak some five different languages (even some who were as young as five six seemed multilingual). the tannery is breathtaknig. i felt uneasy as all of the rich western tourists literaly peered dwn on the workers who earned pitence though.
in terms of somewhere to stay we were in the most beautiful youth hostel which was in the main new town and set around a court yard, well worth searching out (Auberge de Jeunesse) the owner also helped us to organise a tour into the High Atlas mountains down to Marakesh

Good review, but I think you could say a lot more about the history and culture of the place. A bit more info about the location would also be helpful.
