Day 01

Explore Historic Fes and Its Medina

We'll begin our sightseeing tour with the local guide, who will take us through Morocco's oldest city, winding along its narrow streets and tight alleyways. Fes is recognized as a scientific city and is home to the world's oldest university. It is divided into three sections: Fes el Bali, Fes-Jdid, and the Ville Nouvelle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1981. Fes-Jdid is the oldest of the three, with over 8,500 small lanes and streets, and is home to the Jewish district, while the Ville Nouvelle is Fez's most modern section, created under French rule.

Explore the tanneries and the Attarine Museum.

Then, tour various cooperatives before enjoying a beautiful view of Fes' Medina.

After finishing the tour and eating lunch, get back to your Riad and have a free afternoon.
