Guided Tour of Fez

Fez, the Ancient Heart of Morocco

The day begins with a journey back in time: today you will discover Fez, the oldest of Morocco’s Imperial Cities and still considered the true spiritual and cultural heart of the country. After breakfast, departure with an official guide and driver to travel through centuries of history while walking through the narrow streets of the Medina, a true medieval labyrinth filled with the scents, sounds and colours of another era.

You will visit some of the city’s most iconic landmarks: the Bou Inania Madrasa with its magnificent decorative details, Nejjarine Square with its mosaic fountain, and the historic tanneries, where leather is still processed using traditional methods. You will stop in front of the Al Quaraouiyine Mosque, home to one of the oldest universities in the world, and visit the Al Attarine Madrasa, a masterpiece of Islamic art.

The tour continues through the elegant and more modern Ville Nouvelle and the Jewish Quarter, a quiet reminder of the cultural coexistence that has shaped the city over the centuries. There will also be a stop at the Royal Palace (exterior visit), the Merenid Tombs, and a traditional ceramic workshop, where you can discover how the beautiful pieces found throughout the souks are created.

An intense and fascinating day surrounded by centuries-old architecture, art and authentic Moroccan daily life. Return to the riad in the afternoon.

Impeccable trip to Morocco, thanks to Elisabetta! We have just finished a 10-day trip to Morocco, from Marrakech to the Merzouga desert, to the imperial cities and the coast, and everything went as we had hoped. Elisabetta organized every detail with precision and flexibility: when we had to change the dates, she took care of revising everything in a short time. The riads chosen were beautiful, with a warm welcome. Our driver, Hamid, was punctual, always available, and also very nice: he made us feel good at every stop. The guides booked for the imperial cities were all of an excellent level, prepared, and pleasant to listen to. Heartfelt thanks to Elisabetta for the professionalism and care she put into our trip: congratulations! We recommend her without hesitation.

The imperial cities through the eyes of novices We had a very good time. The travel plan was defined from the beginning and everything was respected: in the timing, in the proposed activities, and in the assistance. Our driver, El Housine Ouattoue, was really very kind. In addition to respecting the times, he gave us many tips, practical suggestions, and even solved a problem that arose during the vacation. In addition, he is very nice and speaks good Italian. He introduced us to Moroccan coffee, which has nothing to envy of the Italian one. Elisabetta, as organizer and back office, was always present and attentive to our needs. Super, regarding the competence of the guides: Fes and Marrakech. The visit to CHEFCHAOUEN, proposed by them and not included in our original plan, was a true and pleasant surprise.

Elisabetta let us experience beautiful things, stay in beautiful riads and in desert camps. Everything organized to perfection.

It is the second trip I have taken with them and I will definitely take others!! Thank you Elisabetta!

On vacation among the dunes Perfect organization, guide/escort Ali and minivan driver were courteous, efficient, punctual, and friendly. I recommend it, a vacation I would do again from Marrakesh to the borders with Algeria, a trip to the desert with a dromedary and quad, beautiful... Very beautiful Riads, the one in Fez was insufficient

A fantastic trip to discover Morocco! 🇲🇦 Eight unforgettable days, full of emotions, breathtaking landscapes, and charming places, starting from lively Marrakech (a city of unparalleled colors, sounds, and scents) and arriving in the more modern, yet equally evocative Rabat, crossing some of the most beautiful wonders of Morocco. From the charm of Ouarzazate with its Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah to the spectacular views of the Dades Valley, from the golden dunes of Merzouga crossed on the back of a dromedary (an unmissable experience!!), with the magic of "one thousand and one nights" in the desert, to authentic Fes, up to the blue streets of Chefchaouen: every stop gave us unique moments and precious memories. And to finish on a high note, a morning visit to the magnificent Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca, truly spectacular! A special thanks to Elisabetta, who organized everything with great care, professionalism, and attention to every detail, making the trip pleasant and worry-free. A heartfelt thanks also to Aziz, our driver, very nice, helpful, and always attentive to our needs, who accompanied us with kindness and safety along the entire route, contributing to making this experience even more beautiful. An intense but wonderful itinerary, among imperial cities, mountains, desert, traditions, and colors that remain in the heart. Highly recommended for those who wish to discover the real Morocco! A trip that we will keep in our memories for a long time, made special by fantastic people and the impeccable organization of Marocco.tours. ❤️

Desert tour with a visit to the imperial cities Beautiful experience! With Ali, an attentive and thoughtful guide... nicknamed "yalla" by us because he kept urging us on😉 you know, we Italians are talkative and like to waste time. The driver was excellent, drove carefully, and cleaned the minibus every evening.

An unforgettable experience through the colors of Morocco! We relied on marocco.tours for an 8-day tour that took us to discover the most fascinating places in the country: starting from lively Marrakech, we crossed the wonderful Dades Gorges, the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, and that of Amridil. The camel ride through the desert dunes was fabulous. We then continued towards the historic Fes and Meknes up to the magical "blue city," Chefchaouen, to finish with the more modern Rabat. An intense itinerary, organized down to the smallest detail and managed with great care. ​A heartfelt thank you goes to Elisabetta: from the very first contacts, she proved to be extremely helpful, attentive to our needs, and precise in building a tailor-made trip. Her assistance and her advice were invaluable. ​A special round of applause goes to Aziz, our driver, who was much more than just a driver. Always punctual, professional, and attentive to safety, he made every trip pleasant and full of interesting insights. His kindness, friendliness, and constant availability really made the difference during all the stops. ​If you are looking for a serious, reliable agency capable of letting you experience the true essence of Morocco in total relaxation and safety, we warmly recommend marocco.tours!
