It was really good! Yamal was our kind guide and we had a great time. He took us through medina and provided some quite useful insights and historical overview of the area. We also had the opportunity to see how various things are made by hand. Overall, great experience and big thank you to Yamal!

It was a fantastic experience of diving in history, culture, religion, art and education. Our guide Jamal made us fall in love with Fes. As a local from old medina he virtuously led us through the narrow streets. He told us interesting facts about the architecture and captivating stories about local life in neighborhoods. we booked a full day tour so it lasted 6 hours but we didn't feel tired afterwards. Jamal perfectly balanced his tour. Always gave as enouth time to rest, took nice pictures for us. I highly recommend Jamal as guide in Fes and wish him all the best!

Full description

After a pick-up at your hotel or riad in Fez, head out on a guided tour of the medina, one of the world’s largest walled-in cities.

Explore the narrow streets lined with shops selling fresh fruits, spices, intricately woven Berber carpets and numerous other art and craft items from Morocco.

Visit the Quaraouiyine Mosque, founded in 859 by Fatima el Fihri and the Andalusian Mosque dating back to 860 (note that non-Muslims are not permitted to enter). Take in other sites including the Nejjarine Fountain, the Bouaanania Medersa, dating from the 13th century and the Batha Palace, which is now a museum of arts and traditions.
Finally, the tour may include visits to artisanal cooperatives showcasing traditional crafts (which are a key part of Fassi culture), these are not commercial shops —feel free to observe, learn, and say no politely.

Important information

Know before you go

  • Tours usually begin at 09:00 AM, although It's possible to start later in the morning or in the afternoon
  • Be Informed About Visits to Shops: guided tours include visits to artisan cooperatives (e.g., for carpets, leather, or pottery). These aren’t mandatory purchases —feel free to observe, learn, and say no politely.
  • Bargain Respectfully: In markets or shops, bargaining is expected. Smile, stay respectful, and don’t feel pressured to buy
  • Don’t expect all areas to be polished or touristy—part of the Medina’s charm is its authenticity and local life.
  • Carry Small Change: Some attractions, public toilets, and local snacks may require small cash (dirhams).
  • Pack essentials like tissues or hand sanitizer for understocked restrooms, sunscreen for unexpected sun exposure, and a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated.
