About this activity

This fully guided tour will take you to the heart of the Imperial City of Fez which is the city that most reflects the ancestral past of the Moroccan Kingdom and its ancient civilization.

It was and still remains the core of intellectual and spiritual creativity, not only in Morocco, but also in the Islamic world. Fes houses the oldest university in the world, Al Quaraouiyyne (exterior visit of the latter) and its ancient medina was classified as Universal Heritage by UNESCO in 1981.
