Fez Private Sightseeing Tour

Fez Private Sightseeing Tour

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel or riad in Fez and make our way to the center of the city. Here, we'll enjoy a private tour of the old town, exploring the most emblematic parts of the Old Medina on foot.

Among the main attractions, are the Bab Bou Jeloud Gate and the Moulay Idriss Mausoleum. We'll also stop at the old madrasas of Fez, i.e. Koranic schools and lodgings for foreign students. Then, we'll visit various funduqs, or ancient inns, and the Quaraouine mosque-university, considered to be the first multidisciplinary university in the world.

Throughout our tour, we'll also pass through old residential neighborhoods, such as the Al-Andalus neighborhood and the Quaraouin neighborhood, where we'll discover its ancient hammam, public wood-burning oven, fountain, mosque, and "msid" or children's nursery.

We'll get to know some of the stories of the narrow streets and see up close some cultural aspects that reflect the idiosyncrasies of its inhabitants. In the Old Medina of Fez, we'll see how the tanners (debbaghin), carpenters (nejjarin), weavers (ashabin), looms and dyers (sebbaghin), among others, work.

After a break for lunch, we'll take a panoramic tour of Fez. During the tour, which will take place in a car or minibus depending on the size of the group, we'll first make our way to the majestic Royal Palace to tell you all about the legends hidden within.

Next, it's on to Mellah, Fez's Jewish neighborhood. The tour will then continue around the Borj Sud neighborhood, where you'll enjoy some of the very best views of the city!

Finally, after 6 hours exploring the city, we'll put the tour to an end either at Rcif Square or Oued Zhoun Square, whichever you prefer. From there, you can continue to explore the city at your own pace. Please keep in mind that we'll always adapt the itinerary to your interests.
