Highlights
- Medina of Fez - The historic center of Fez and the seat of the Moroccan government until 1912, Fez Medina (Fez el-Bali) remains the city’s main attraction: an extensive district of souks and alleys filled with grand mosques, palaces, and madrassas. The ancient medina is now a UNESCO World Heritage site, still surrounded by its 13th-century city walls and accessed through a series of monumental gates, most notably the 20th-century Bab Boujeloud, celebrated for its stunning blue mosaic.
- Bab Bou Jeloud - Bab (meaning ‘gate’ in English) Boujloud was built by the French during their occupation of Morocco in 1913. It serves as the gateway to the heart of the bustling streets of the Fez medina. Right next to it is the original 12th-century gate, constructed with an indirect entrance on a slope to block the entry of battering rams.

After lunch in the medina, see how leather is processed as it was centuries ago at one of the tanneries. View the Royal Palace, then drive to the Bab Ftouh cemetery for a panoramic vista over the medina.
