Tours From Fes

Fes City Tours

Located in the northeast of Morocco, the city of Fes or Fez is known by different names, including the Mecca of the West and the Athens of Africa, making it the spiritual and cultural capital of Morocco. However, this unexplored tourist site is also home to popular monuments, unmatched local delicacies, and unique local experiences like hamams. The city has also been listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.  All of this, combined with its indulgent architectural beauty, history, and artisanal traditions, makes it a great starting point for your great Moroccan adventure!

At Morocco Meta Adventures, we offer guided city experiences into the untrodden paths of the city. Throughout the trip, you will witness the city’s beautiful history through the narrow alleys, historic gates, traditional souks, and artisan workshops of Fes el-Bali. Visit the Tanneries of Chouara to see ancient leather-dyeing techniques, get a tour of the Royal Palace Gate and the ramparts offering panoramic views of the city, explore the Jewish Quarter (Mellah), and the Ibn Danan Synagogue.

Along the Fes city tours, you will also get to experience and learn about the Fes pottery, woodcarving, and other crafts from local artisans, and get a taste of local cuisine from street vendors to riads and restaurants. Make sure you try the special mint tea served here. As the trip comes to an end, you can close it with a cultural performance, traditional music, and dinner in a restored riad to get the complete Fes experience!

Fes to Volubilis and Meknes Tour

Fes to Chefchaouen Tour

Another one of our much-loved day tours from Fes is destined for the blue city of Chefchaouen. Known for its dreamy blue-washed and tightly-packed homes in narrow lanes, here you will also find souks or bazaar-style marketplaces selling local rugs and leather items. The mountain city of Morocco holds a Portuguese and Spanish influence.

Our journey starts with a beautiful drive through the Rif mountains to Morocco’s ‘blue pearl’. Upon arrival, you get to explore Chefchaouen’s blue medina and photogenic streets, visit the Plaza Uta el-Hamam, the kasbah, and the Spanish Mosque for panoramic views, and finally, you will also get some time for independent exploration, relaxing at hamams, and cafe hopping. If you want, you can stay back and extend your trip for hiking at the Akchour waterfalls or Talassemtane National Park, or return to Fes with us by evening.

This trip is best for those seeking a blend of nature, culture, and photography in one trip.
