About this activity

The tour stands out for offering a comfortable, flexible and authentic experience to discover Fez effortlessly. Unlike traditional walking tours, you’ll enjoy an authorized private vehicle, allowing you to explore more places in less time and without long walks.

In addition, we combine the best of both worlds: total freedom to explore at your own pace. The driver takes you to the most iconic points and advises you at each stop, but you decide how much time to spend at each location, creating a personalized and unhurried experience.

Another differential point is our focus on panoramic views and less accessible corners, which many tours do not include. You can admire Fez from above, discover historic neighborhoods like the Mellah and know traditional craft workshops.

The comfortable, safe and adapted environment for your needs, ideal both for first-time visitors and those looking for a more relaxed and exclusive way to get to know the city.

Itinerary

Medina of Fez

10 min

When booking, please indicate the pick-up point closest to your accommodation or the name of your hotel. We have several strategic points in the medina and the new city, and when possible we arrive directly at the reception of your accommodation. After confirming the reservation, our team will contact you to adjust or confirm the exact point. On the day of the tour, your assistant-driver will wait for you on time and welcome you to begin a quiet, comfortable and unhurried experience.
Jardin Jnan Sbil

20 min

We will start with a visit to the public gardens of Fez, which were originally exclusive to the royal elite and connected to the Royal Palace. They were created in the 19th century by Sultan Hassan I. Then we will go all the way around the new city to access the Jewish quarter (Mellah) from the south.
Stop 3

20 min

We will stop in front of the majestic gate of the Royal Palace, a symbol of the monarch and his artistic heritage. We will also visit a 17th century Ibn Danan synagogue, noted both as a religious monument and for its great cultural value within a mostly Muslim nation.
Ibn Danan Synagogue

20 min Admission not included

Considered one of the best preserved synagogues in the country. Built in the 17th century, it reflects the deep integration of the Jewish community into the history of Fez, as well as its relevance in the economic, cultural and social life of the city for centuries.

Its architecture, apparently discreet from the outside, contrasts with a richly decorated interior, where works in carved wood, plaster and traditional tiles stand out. Inside you can see characteristic elements such as the sacred ark (where the Torah scrolls are kept) and the bima, the central space for reading

In addition to its architectural value, the synagogue is a symbol of coexistence and cultural diversity, recalling a time when Muslims and Jews shared spaces and traditions in the medina of Fez.

Nowadays, restored and open to visitors, it allows you to learn more about the history of the Moroccan Jewish community and its important contribution to the development of the city
Fes Traditional Pottery & Zellige Art Experience

30 min Admission included

Discover the craft process of Moroccan ceramics, from molding to hand painting, in an experience that allows you to appreciate the art of zellige and the mastery of local artisans.

We move to the southwest of Fez, where the areas rich in clay, essential raw material of this art, are located. There you will learn how artisans work directly with the earth, selecting the right mud and combining it with water, light and traditional techniques to achieve authentic and high quality pieces.

This tour offers a complete overview of the know-how handed down from generation to generation, where each piece reflects the connection between nature, technique and Moroccan artisan tradition.

Panoramic viewpoint (highest point of the medina)

The final brooch of the tour: a spectacular view of the entire medina from above. A perfect place to relax, take unforgettable photos and enjoy a magical sunset over the city.
