This isn’t just a tasting tour — it’s a sensory journey into the soul of Fes. You’ll eat where locals eat, discover hidden family-run stalls you’d never find alone, and connect with the people behind each dish. Every stop reveals a story — from the communal ovens that unite neighborhoods to the spice merchants who blend flavors by instinct. Guided by a true Fassi, you’ll experience Moroccan hospitality at its most authentic, leaving not just with a full stomach, but with a deeper understanding of the city’s culture, rhythm, and warmth.

What to expect

  1. Bab Boujloud
    15m
    Meet your local food-loving Guide at the Blue Gate, the bustling entrance to the old medina. Begin your journey with an introduction to Fes’s culinary heritage — a blend of Berber, Andalusian, and Arab influences that make Moroccan cuisine one of the world’s most flavorful.
  2. 30m
    Step into the fragrant world of the spice market where cumin, saffron, and ras el hanout fill the air. Your Guide will introduce you to Morocco’s essential spices and how they’re used to build layers of flavor in traditional dishes.
  3. Medina of Fez
    2h
    Visit the local produce section, piled high with seasonal fruits, dates, and olives. Sample a variety of olives and learn how these are prepared and preserved.

    Street Food Corner (Grilled Meats & Skewers)
    Head to one of Fes’ favorite street food corners where the aroma of sizzling meat fills the air. Taste freshly grilled skewers, , and local breads served with olive oil and spices.

    Traditional Fassi Bakery & Communal Oven
    Step inside a farran, the communal oven where locals bring their bread to bake. See the baker at work, sliding loaves into the wood-fired oven, and taste the warm, crusty khobz that’s the heart of every Moroccan meal.

    Sweet Treats & Moroccan Pastries
    End on a Sweet Rating with an assortment of chebakia, sellou, and gazelle horns — delicate pastries flavored with honey, sesame, and almonds. Pair them with a final glass of mint tea or nus-nus (half coffee, half milk) in a traditional café.
