DESCRIPTION
Just two hours from Rabat, Fes is a world apart — Morocco’s oldest imperial city and one of the most remarkably preserved medieval urban environments on earth. Founded in the 9th century, Fes el-Bali remains a living, breathing city where artisans, scholars, and merchants still inhabit the same streets, souks, and quarters their ancestors did a thousand years ago.
This private day trip from Rabat takes you deep into the heart of the ancient medina with a knowledgeable local guide, uncovering the hidden fountains, grand madrasas, and sacred mosques that make Fes one of the most fascinating cities in the Islamic world — before returning you comfortably to Rabat by evening.
