Itinerary

Bab Boujloud

15 min

Begin at the iconic 1913 Art Nouveau gate — the grand entrance to the Fez Medina. Covered in blue zellige tilework on

one side and green on the other, it marks the boundary between the ancient city and the modern world
Royal Palace of Fez

15 min

Stand before the magnificent golden brass gates of the Royal Palace. Your guide reveals the symbolism behind intricate

geometric patterns and 800 years of Alaoui dynasty history
Mellah souk

20 min

Explore the historic Mellah, one of the oldest Jewish quarters in North Africa. Discover the layered history of

Jewish-Moroccan coexistence through its architecture, synagogues, and market streets.
Borj Sud

15 min Admission not included

Climb to the 16th-century fortress for a sweeping panorama over the entire Fez Medina — 9,000 alleys, 300 mosques,

and the world's largest car-free urban area spread below you. The best photography stop of the tour.
Art Naji

45 min

Visit the famous Fez ceramics school where artisans hand-craft the distinctive blue-and-white zellige pottery for

generations. Watch craftsmen at work and learn about the 1,200-year-old tradition.
Borj Nord

15 min Admission not included

The northern counterpart to Borj Sud, built in the same era to guard the city from both flanks. A different angle over the

The tanneries district and the Andalusian quarter below.
Jardin Jnan Sbil

30 min

End your tour in the peaceful royal gardens — a lush oasis of palms, fountains, and ancient trees tucked just outside the

medina walls. The perfect place to sit and absorb everything you've experienced
