Overview

Our experienced guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel or Riad in the morning and take you on a journey through time.

We'll start the tour by exploring the medina ramparts for two hours. Our first stop is Fes El Jadid, the 14th century section of the city. Here, you'll see the Jewish quarter (Mellah), the synagogue or cemetery, and the famous gates of the royal palace.

Next, we'll head to Borj Nord for a panoramic view of the city before visiting the pottery section, where you'll see artisans creating beautiful mosaics and tiles.

After the outside tour, we'll head to the old medina, Fes El Bali, the 9th century section of the city. Here, you'll visit one of the famous Medersas (Quranic school) of the 14th century, the quaraouiyine university (the oldest university in the world), the seffarine (bronze) section, the Najjarine (Carpenters) Souk, the Nejjarine Fountain and Fondouk, and the mausoleum of Moulay Idriss II, the founder of Fez.
