What you can expect

  • Discover the highlights of Fez on a guided city tour. See the Royal Palace, the Jewish Quarter, and the Southern Tower. Visit the pottery area and see the tannery. Explore the Medina and see the Al-Quaraouiyine University.

    After breakfast, meet your driver and local guide in Fez at your hotel to begin your city tour. Learn about the stunning design of the Royal Palace, which features seven golden gates. Then, enjoy a tour of the Mellah, or Jewish area, which was built near the Palace to offer security.

    Take in the scenery from the Southern Tower, a historical fortress, and one of the lookouts on a hill from which you can see the whole layout of Fez, allowing you to find spots that skyline-obscuring structures would otherwise cover.

    Visit the pottery area to discover how the unique Fez pottery is made, as well as handmade the exquisite mosaics that amaze half of Morocco.

    Explore the ancient Medina, a small community where people live, work, and go about their daily lives. Keep moving and keep an eye out for donkeys. Make a special stop in Fez’s ancient alleyways to view the renowned Al-Quaraouiyine University, a stunning testament to the city’s rich academic past.

    See why Fez is recognised as Morocco’s crafts capital by visiting handicraft workshops. This can include, for example, the silk weavers, who weave beautifully colourful fabrics from agave plant silk fibres, and the famous Fez tannery, where they process all manner of animal hides by hand, as they have for nearly 1000 years, and sell leather items in every shade and style.
