[@mansourmansour2494]

15:48 what u said is good morning in arabic 😄. "Tesbah a'ala kheir" is good night 😄 nice vlogs very inspiring

[@marthachavez6235]

I visited visited Fez last year. I loved it! The food, the people and places I went were awesome. I was fortunate to stay with my fiancé and be with his family. I attended a traditional Moroccan wedding, which was his brother’s. I was so lucky and grateful to have a “personal” guide 😀 ❤️

[@imax2000]

You make me smile when you read Chez lol it s Chez which is a French word means " at " and we spell it without pronouncing the letter Z. and welcome to Morocco.

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

OOppsss Haha Thanks! -Ash

[@jbiloajbiloa]

very good, and that extra is BS, 4 dollars like you said is a meal, i m moroccan and it happened to me several times, but like they add two dollars for extras , you just could say no , i didnt order this and they wont argue, for the tipping it s not obligatory in morocco, but i always tip the waiter half euro wich is 5 dirhams wich is a good tipe in morocco, if you dont want to, you dont have to, it s not necessary at all, it s just rewarding the guy if he did a great job

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Thank you so much for the advice. At the time we didn't know but its nice to know we can share our experience with others so they will pay more attention. -Ash

[@krystlynnemuscutt9552]

You guys are awesome I love watching your adventures

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

After this many years I'm so happy we can keep you updated on them. Thanks so much for watching and supporting us and the crazy things we do. -Ash

[@imaneelf]

Hi guys, Fez is an interesting city yeah, but there are many other cities more interesting and famous. From instagram i learnt that you left Morocco and it seems you didn't visit Marrakech, Chefchaouen, Agadir, Tangier, Sahara and many other places .. any way i hope you come again to discover the real beauty of Morocco , but this time make plans .. thumbs up !

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

We actually did make it to Chefchaouen and Tangier. Those videos are on their way.:) -Ash

[@sk36271]

Sbah el kheir is indeed good morning! :) BTW, I'm your 63000th subscriber! Whoop, Whoop!

[@PiLoDaNgEr]

Lmao.. even us local Moroccans suffer with the added taxes/food that we didn't order, on a side note i really appreciate the way you pronounce "arabic".. but that was a good morning at the end lol.. always interesting to see how foreigners actually see you country/culture.. thanks for sharing.

[@mayalandermaroc9125]

[@hishamnjm5274]

welcome in morocco

[@nirvomind]

im Moroccan and Fez is my City . Dude , you paid like 7 or 8 Bucks for that meal plus the View in the Medina , what do you expect? that is more than fair , thats the same price the moroccan pays ,and dont know why are you complaining about . Be grateful and enjoy the Land.

[@tarickscarparo3714]

Awesome video ! i love it

[@redmoor1852]

NICE VIDEO ❤ LOVED IT

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Thank you so much for watching! We're glad you liked it. -Ash

[@cherguienitaly4950]

Thank you for visiting my city of Fez

[@Onegirlonesuitcase]

The extra charges are just normal in some cultures, but even in the states I get so frustrated with having to ad tax and tips to an initial lower number, in DK it's all included so simple ha ha:) My friend and I spend 10 days in Morrocco a few years back and loved the Tagine's after those 10 days we were all Tagin'ed out though ha ha:)

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

I totally feel like you should be told if its being charged and they shouldn't automatically bring it to the table and charge you. But we didn't have this problem in Morocco again. The bread came with the meal every time with no extra charge. So I think this place was just hoping that we wouldn't notice. -Ash

[@yassineelalami2965]

I'm moroccan, and there are some places that charge Bread as Plus and others that don't (even for us moroccans)

[@loubnaarifi3182]

One Girl One Suitcase (Maria Storgaard) Extra charges are normal in italy as well, you have to pay 2 or 3 euros per person for the service. And so it is in portugal, you have to pay extra for bread and water. I am maroccan and I know it's normal to pay for bread...but not for the service :-/

[@kalb1968]

Service charge, plate charge as this is from French Culture . but these is not Extra tax to pay like in USA..Most hotel in usa charge 20% to 30% to cover the taxes.. 2 or 3 dollars is really no much in this case. Think about as TIPs

[@assamiyou]

the best couple. I wish happiness and joy in your life, forever.

[@onlinejobs2288]

as a tourist you dont have to go some danger places not only in morocco in all the world . but in morocco more save but of course there is extremly guys everywhere in the world

[@user-eg2yu6yv7k]

Guys come to algeria u will love it, go to the Sahara and u will love it , I recommend u to visit ghardaya city it's gorgeous especially if u r looking for something different than modern cities, good luck and enjoy ur time

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Thanks so much for the advice. -Ash

[@user-zm6mt3sl9n]

Morocco is multi-ethnic with a rich culture and civilization. Throughout the Moroccan history, this country has hosted many people from the East (Phoenicians, Jews and Arabs), from the south (Sub-Saharan Africa), and from the north (Romans, Londal, Mor and Jews). All of these groups had an impact on the social structure of Morocco, which included many beliefs, such as Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Each Moroccan region has its own characteristics and contributes to the creation of a mosaic of Morocco's cultural and cultural heritage. The Kingdom has placed its priorities in preserving its cultural heritage and protecting its diversity and privacy.

[@bobitrt9615]

Next time come to marrakech city in Morocco I will be your guide for free ❤️ love u guys keep going 👍🏻

[@freesoul2621]

There is no service charges in morocco when it comes to restaurants and he should've told u about the extra food at the beginning in order to either refuse it or take it anyway welcome to my country morocco ❤ you guys are amazing

[@soukael548]

Welcome in morocco

[@everythingf1]

The extra charges for bread is very normal in Morocco,even the locals pay for that. In regards to service charge all restaurants should have it to pay for the overheads, you got ripped off in the first place you ate so they won't add the service charge or even mention the charge for the bread because they're already making mass profit from you, the good thing is that they know they're ripping you off so they'll always give you a large portion, hence the size difference between the two places.

[@dhakafani8828]

Thanks 💋

[@hafidregragui5055]

you have been in the old medina which means the old town in fes its an ancient place everything didnt changed there ,also there is the modern town its closer to the medina

[@yusufkaraca3157]

Just came for the thumbnail. Josh you look total badass. 😎

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

What a nice complement.:) He's a handsome one for sure. More thumb nails of Josh are in order. -Ash

[@mqn5029]

Sabah alkhair=good morning ,masa alkhair=good evening

[@lunabooh3520]

Medina means city the walled city where you guys are staying is called an old medina it’s basically where people from fes used to live before the current medina was built I dont know if you guys visited there ( excuse my english btw 🙄 )

[@lahoucineboumergoud938]

بلدنا رائع

[@islamdariusouahouda]

ah I miss my city :))))))))))))))))))))) it called "Briwa" the dessert at 10:04

[@rwenaflow7465]

Nice

[@mayamorabito1669]

Are you sure it was not almond paste inside the briwat (triangular desert)? I'm moroccan and I'm pretty sure there are no sweet briwat with sticky rice in them... first time I hear that :)

[@chaoukihajar9282]

Soumaya Mrabet it does exist, it's the cheap version of almond "briwat" (the moroccan baklava as they said😄)

[@realser9]

Bonjour mes amis que Diéu bénisse richement votre journée 💖🙌😚

[@imax2000]

Sbah Lkhir means Good morning, Layla Saida means good night.

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

I think we got it wrong in all of our videos. haha We asked someone how to say good night and I think there may have been a miss understanding. lol We committed but to the wrong words. oopppss

[@salmanem.6017]

No! actually your wife almost got it right: Tsbah ala khir=good night; Sbah L'khir= good morning; you can see how close it is to pronounce! so it's cool ;)

[@gayleswellness2225]

Ha! I recently met a young man from Morocco--he's trying to make it here in the Wash DC area--difficult for him--he speaks 4 languages--the same ones you mentioned. Wish it was more common for Americans to be multi-lingual. So...I'm guessing--berber--either carpet riding or camel riding in the desert???

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

I also wish we spoke more languages. Im always impressed with those who can communicate in multiple languages. I hope one day to add another language to my belt. Great guesses. A camel is for sure involved. -Ash

[@capitainecoignet8507]

Gayle Arnold we all need to speak currently a single language: english of Shakespeare,of great britain.

[@rachidchiki4077]

I am a Moroccan and speak Arabic, French, German, English, Spanish and Russian languages.......

[@smile-xo8jl]

Fes is spirit of morocco and the oldest university of the world

[@youssefouazzani]

You didn't visit the hole places in the spiritual capital of Morocco (Fez). You didn't go to Al Bouanania school , Al qaraouiine (the fist university in the hole World), seffarine (where copper items are made), .... The old medina of FEZ is UNESCO World heritage! Millions of tourists come and like it ! You have to come and visit it but you must have a good planning so you can see the beauty of the old medina.

[@JDCasey]

Morocco! What’s your favorite part about being there?

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

The birds and weather.:)

[@mansourmansour2494]

10:20 madina means city in arabic

[@jodiipodiigames]

Is the "service charge" the tip?

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Kinda. I think a tip is optional and a service charge is required. -Ash

[@toobydude41]

Were they all clothes etc piled on the ground @12:45? I guess for sale?

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Yeah they were selling all sorts of things. Kinda like flea market style. -Ash

[@victormen19]

for the bread, even if you ask for 10 more in Morocco is not an extra :( sorry for that .and for the music of this vlog it s really amazing.---i will send you a plane full of Moroccan bread for this choice :) :)

[@ZacJonesYouTube]

whats the song at 7:47 ?

[@michellelawrence2574]

Y’all be careful in those foreign countries. It’s great you’re traveling close together.

[@tarikrafiki1790]

Ok Bye

[@roubisag4955]

lmao...that is mean good morning 😂

[@madkiss8017]

Some do that with locals but extra 4 dollars is nothing once i did eat fish they wanted to charge me like 20$ extra ..

[@kralorhan7012]

Ashley where from your pair of sunglasses

[@ClassicCartoonCentral]

They put tiles on everything

[@mstambourinegirrl]

u should have visited the al-qaraouyinne mosque/university. it is the oldest university in the world. oh and also the tanneries! when it comes to fez, i always advise non-moroccans to hire a guide. this is not like europe where u can just check google or figure the city out just by walking around. u miss out on a lot of stuff.

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Our vlog from yesterday we visited the tannery. I think we did a pretty good job navigating ourselves but I can for sure see where a guide would have come in handy. -Ash

[@Psychphuq]

Starting to see the little irritations of hidden "tourist taxes" creep in... Otherwise looked like you were enjoying the warmth, sun, & sights... :) At the end Josh had the face of someone exhausted... :(

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

We have been very busy exploring, filming and editing. By the end of the day we are exhausted. -Ash

[@wissalenali8061]

I’m really sorry for the thing you went through for foood

[@hel2471]

i wish my wife was like you always smiling and laughing, my wife is always complaining about something,,

[@samaradashwood1491]

5:17 protectorate ? don't you mean a colony ?

[@hellenjaworski7012]

Hi Josh, I was wondering if you are going for a new hairdo...it is getting super long compared to what you used to have.

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

No plan. Just growing it out. Currently its the longest I've ever had it.

[@aminebendidi1015]

they typically ripped you off. i am moroccan and i never payed extra for bread or the other staff that you do not order, they always come free. i would recomand being more careful in the future and go to restaurants or places where there is less tourists and more locals

[@mithaweed]

first Ashley your shirt is so pretty, second one of the languages you may experience is Kabyl, very old and in danger of extinction, third your restaurant experience was the "keep your eyes open" kind of cultural warning I gave before...from my experience there is a high need to "save face" in that part of the world and they hope for that in YOU with their extra/hidden charges , that you would not argue or question and go ahead and pay anyway just to "save face"...continue to keep your eyes open! Stay wise and safe! xo

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Most people would consider the price still very low and pay the extra. We just want to show our experience and share with others what to expect when they visit. Not everywhere is like this. Just good to be aware and share. -Ash

[@simokora-sw7gs]

there is some states in us is more dangerous than morocco i live in texas and sometimes i don't feel safe there is shootings everday

[@rogue_spirit]

Kabyl? I think they sent you to Algeria and told you it was Morocco, thus the wrong language info and negative impression 😄😄

[@pantheroleoleo536]

There's no "kabyl" language in Morocco , Kabyly is berber area in algeria anyway and not at all in danger of extinction , in Morocco there are many berber dialects , kabyl dialect is not one of them !

[@simokora-sw7gs]

kabyl is in algeria wtf

[@Ryumbless]

فاس والكل في فاس..

[@aliraddani1625]

I am a Moroccan American, just want to thank you for showing my mother land for what it really is, not for what the American fake news is showing to the people, that all Muslim countries hate the west because Of their liberties . Which is the biggest lie in the history of men. We are just normal people, if we are any thing different from the west , we respect all races and ethnicities, we believe That all men are created equal, and we are modest and mind our business. And we don't think we are masters of the world just because we contributed to the human scientific heritage only during the last on hundred years. The Muslim scientists have collected all the primitive sciences left by the human race for thousands of years, and transformed it, to create the foundation of what is known to day as modern science, the science that the west brag about day and night. Starting from math to physics to chemistry to medicine to astronomy and much much more.

[@naimibra3133]

Anyone who wants to come to Morocco and does not express where they welcome me will be hosting it 😊😊

[@imax2000]

He shoud not add an extra food that you havent ordered and bread usually come with the meal, and even If you need more bread you should not pay for it. Sorry that happened to you.

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

No problem. We figured it was a one off thing.:) We learned to look at the check and add up the prices ourselves. -Ash

[@rogue_spirit]

He only tricked himself, now the whole world got to know "Chez Thami" is a "not to go" place! 😎

[@elamriti]

gangster moment 13:14 hassan hassan lol

[@jbiloajbiloa]

GO TO CHEFCHAOUN

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

That vlog will come soon. It was very cool there. -Ash

[@viskenderungubre]

"...and this is our friend Laura"...we miss her :'((

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Yes she is for sure missed. -Ash

[@queencoco7485]

TIP: You have to go to Tanger in Morocco

[@ginpotion2412]

These scammers really make me mad ! I hope your experience in Morocco was good despite all of that !

[@asmrzletti5632]

Medina actually means 'city' in Turkish-Arabic. Also the origin for the word 'Medeniyet' in Ottoman Turkish, which means 'civilization'. Quite an important word in Islamic literature as well, Madina being the 'city' that prophet Muhammed migrated to after leaving Mecca because of political struggles.

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Thanks for the info and for watching. -Ash

[@tahrael2837]

Sbah lkheir means good morning not good night 😂

[@grungeisdead5287]

Jared leto??

[@user-zo6qk5ij5u]

hhhh no good night is masaa el kheir

[@sinistre1234]

Enjoy your time here, some arabic (dialectal arabic) words and their meanings in english (you can use them as you please) Salam = hello (actually salam means peace but it's the muslim greeting) marhaba = welcome wakha = ok (pronounce kh like j in spanish in javier or juego) bghite = I want (I would like to have) Atay = tea khoubz = bread bghite nakoul = I want to eat bghite nchrob = I want to drink ALLAH ihafdek = May ALLAH guard you (like saying a warm thank you) nchoufouk = see you chkoun = who ? chokran = thank you bezzaf = much (very much) mgharba drayyfine = Moroccan people are nice smah li = excuse me bellati = hold on tsenna = wait chwia = a little (a little bit) walakine = but . lberd = the cold Sahd = the heat

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Thank you so much. -Ash

[@sinistre1234]

If you head to Marrakech, don't miss tasting these special plates : " ATTanjia " (meat nicely cooked) (around 20 usd for 2kilos of meat) , " Albissara " (nice soup) (very cheap) , I have some acquaintances there if you want cheap (yet nice) formulas for everything (rent, food, etc.). marrakech, mind you, is - touristically speaking - "worse" than Fès ^^ (if you see what I mean, > Josh ) if you have the idea of renting a car here (it's around 30 usd a day average)

[@anazouhir1136]

Ashley tu ressembles à lynsay Loane qui s'est convertie à l'islam 😊

[@jacqueline23788]

an other side of marocco go to the south and meet the poor people no work no food etc

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

This would be a very interesting trip but hard on my heart. -Ash

[@JonahGhost]

thats beautiful. when i find a girl i wanna marry, we'll have a one year honeymoon. traveling the world together living out a backpack.

[@user-zm6mt3sl9n]

hi Ashley🙋🙋🙋🙋Frankly, you deserve more views, why do not you come to collaborate with other youtubers from different countries to increase your subscribers and your views

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

We'd love to do collabs. This is something we hope to work on in the future. -Ash

[@zaid2508]

i gotta say ! GOOD vlog, BUT u took the wrong decision of going to Morocco without having a plan or hiring a local guide. the old medinas of Morocco and especially Fez and marrakesh are ones of the most complicated urban areas to visit without a guide, mainly because of its resemblance to a Maze haha. because otherwise you end up missing out on so many important sites that Fez is mainly known for.

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

We enjoyed trying to find our way through the streets.:) It was like a maze and many times we came to a dead end. haha I can see where a guide would for sure help but I think we were able to see many of the main attractions. -Ash

[@michellelawrence2574]

I’m not feeling comfortable and I’m in America watching. Not me.

[@nawfaljamrani9289]

actually all the appetizers that are given in moroccan restaurants and the bread are not extra (except for special breads that you order) because normally with a tagine the bread is given automaticly, it's just unfortunate that you came thru a dishonest person !! police is always trying to fight against this kind of dishonest practices (you can face them in taxis, some restaurants, some shops ...) but you can't get them all !!

[@jbiloajbiloa]

you gambled with one dirham hahaha, even if you gambled with a million buck with that supersayan guy shooting MON AMIIII, you ll never ever win, i lost so much dirhams when i was a kid instead of buying candy lol

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Hahah There was a guy there that made it look so easy but it seems he is the only one that could do it. We figured it was a scam but no harm in trying haha. -Ash

[@antoinefigafetta6405]

everywhere any country in the 3rd world you go they are all the same if you don't speak the local language you get the tourist pricing ..Lol ....Brazil is the worst rip off ....

[@natalyperetz1787]

What do you think you are different than me I will get up and not pay at all. And thank God I’m Moroccan who left it since 1989 when I was only 15 yrs old and I speak 5 important difference languages I don’t think they want to mess with me. I’m not shay to be right!

[@TheVagabond10]

FEZ is terrible at best
