Itinerary
Step into the living heart of Fes, one of the world’s largest and best-preserved medieval medinas. A maze of narrow alleys, historic riads, bustling souks, and centuries-old mosques, the medina offers an immersive journey into Morocco’s spiritual, cultural, and artisanal heritage.
An architectural jewel of Marinid craftsmanship, Bou Inania Madrasa stands out for its intricate zellij tilework, carved cedar wood, and elegant stucco decoration. Still functioning as a religious school, it reflects the intellectual and artistic peak of medieval Fes.
From a panoramic terrace overlooking Chouara Tannery, witness one of Fes’s most iconic scenes. Below, traditional leather tanners work in stone vats using centuries-old methods, creating a colorful and unforgettable snapshot of the city’s enduring craftsmanship.
Located in a beautifully restored square, the Nejjarine Fountain is one of the finest examples of traditional Moroccan fountains. Nearby, the Nejjarine Museum of Wooden Arts & Crafts showcases exquisite woodwork, offering insight into the artistry that shaped Fes’s historic architecture.
Wander through vibrant souks and artisan quarters where age-old skills are kept alive. Watch craftsmen shaping brass, weaving textiles, carving wood, and dyeing leather, and experience the authentic rhythm of daily life in Fes beyond the monuments.

About Fez
Fez is Morocco's old imperial capital and cultural heart, with a vast walled medina of lanes, souks, tanneries and medieval religious schools.
Fes el-Bali, the old medina, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a living medieval city where donkeys and handcarts still carry goods through narrow lanes. Its best-known gateway, the Bab Bou Jeloud with its blue and green tiles, leads into a maze of souks, fountains and old caravanserais.
