Highlights

At a time suitable for you, your guide will pick you up from your accommodation. the entire day will be devoted to sightseeing in the city of Fez, the spiritual capital of Morocco.

Step back in time over six centuries into the medieval Medina with its narrow and cobbled streets filled with ancient mosques, towering green glazed minarets and crumbling fondouks (caravanserais). Narrow openings into private worlds reveal architecture of peaceful courtyards filled with carved cedar, brilliantly colored mosaic tiles and delicately carved stucco ornaments.

Suggested lunch will be at Palais Nejjarine, a beautiful Arab palace. After lunch, you will visit the Attarine and Abou Anania madrasas, the Nejjarine fountain, the Moulay Idriss Mausoleum, and the Karaouine Mosque. In the afternoon, you will visit the countless souks, the famous tanneries and Fes Jdid.

The tour finishes as your guide takes you back to your accommodation.

Our Moroccan trip through Uniquely Morocco Tours was a trip of a lifetime! - We went directly to Morocco from Italy where we had spent two weeks. Our Italy portion of the trip took months and months of planning to book the perfect Airbnb's, trains, tours, restaurants, and sights to see. This was not the case in Morocco! The staff at Uniquely Morocco Tours patiently and expertly worked with us to plan the perfect holiday that matched our interests and budget. All we had to do was answer a few questions and emails. Once we landed in Fes, we worried about nothing. Every riad, hotel, tour, and restaurant were pre-booked. Our guide and driver, Hassan, was professional yet personable. He quickly became part of our family. Our guide made sure we were treated like royalty. We felt very spoiled!

Book this tour guide! - We had the pleasure of touring Fez with Hassan and truly appreciated all he had to offer. He speaks fantastic English, has a wealth of knowledge surrounding the history of his city and also knew fantastic places to eat and shop. He was super attentive and responsive and very patient with this traveling family :) Hassan pivoted easily when we needed to change our plans or wanted to do something different from what was initially discussed and we felt that we were in great hands with Hassan during our visit. We highly recommend Hassan and Uniquely Morocco tours!

Good for local photography - Hassan was a gracious, patient, and knowlegeable guide in a city with many opportunities for missteps. Once we explained that we were looking for an experience not visiting local tourist highlights, he altered the itinerary and we went far from the beaten path (as in, no other tourists around). Rather than the tourist lunch places we went full local, a huge highlight for us. The walking pace was perfect for periodically stopping for photos and keeping us from over-extending.

The only way to 'do' the Medina - Don't try the Fez medina on your own unless you like getting hopelessly lost. It's a terrific place and quite safe to wander through on your own, but it's a bit disconcerting if you have no idea where you're going to end up or how long it's going to take. A private tour solves all these issues and cost us 500 Maroc dirham and was worth it. out guide was knowledgeable and took us to places we would not have found on our own and to places where tourist would simply walk past.
