Itinéraire

1. Begin your journey in the maze-like medina of Fes, Morocco’s spiritual and artistic heart. Follow your local expert through its UNESCO-listed alleys, where every turn reveals the pulse of tradition — the echo of craftsmen’s hammers, the rhythm of weaving looms, the scent of spices, and the vibrant energy of daily life that has remained unchanged for centuries.

2. Visit the world-famous Chouara Tannery, where age-old leather-dyeing techniques have been preserved for more than a thousand years. From a panoramic terrace, watch artisans soak, soften, and dye hides in vibrant natural pigments — a captivating scene that showcases one of Fes’s most remarkable living traditions.

3. Discover Morocco’s rich woodworking heritage inside this beautifully restored caravanserai, once a bustling stop for traders crossing the kingdom. Admire finely carved doors, traditional instruments, and centuries-old tools that reveal the remarkable precision and artistry of Fassi woodworkers.

4. Ride or walk to the pottery quarter just outside the medina, where skilled artisans create Fes’s iconic zellige mosaics, ceramic tiles, and hand-painted pottery. Watch each step of the craft — from molding the clay to firing it in traditional kilns and decorating it with intricate motifs — before exploring a dazzling showroom filled with finished pieces.

About Fès

Fès, ancienne capitale impériale et cœur culturel du Maroc : vaste médina fortifiée de ruelles, de souks, de tanneries et de médersas médiévales.

Fès el-Bali, la vieille médina, est inscrite au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO et reste une ville médiévale vivante où des ânes et des charrettes à bras transportent encore les marchandises dans d'étroites ruelles. Sa porte la plus connue, Bab Bou Jeloud, aux carreaux bleus et verts, mène à un dédale de souks, de fontaines et d'anciens caravansérails.
