The 10 Best Archaeology Tours in Fes, Fes-Boulemane Region

January 15, 2022 Viva Honore

The oldest university in the world isn’t Oxford or the Sorbonne—it’s the University of Al-Karaouine, and you’ll find it in Fes el Bali. This walled city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, will transport you back to medieval times. Visit the ancient maze-like quarters of the Medina to Fes el-Bali and the four imposing Gates of Fes, with their distinctive Moroccan tile work. You can walk, or, if you're brave, take a taxi—the daredevil drivers will have you hanging on for dear life.

I don't even know where to start describing that day. Yes, it was a full day experience. Not the 3.5h listed in the description. Khalid met us at our hotel, and right there on the spot, we knew we made the right choice with this tour. I wish I had much more space here to describe our day. He took us all over town, some places where we would not go by ourselves, and some places where we would barely fit ;). He had many great discussions about culture, food, religion and the country as a whole. He arranged for us to have lunch at his parents house. Despite his family not being too well off, we felt very welcomed and had a nice family time. Sure it included all the commercial spots where you are "expected" to buy things, and buy things we did :), but we really enjoyed everything we bought and every moment and memory we made and got to take away with us. Khalid also arranged for us to get to the bus station to get tix to our next destination and for the transportation to pick us up and get to the bus station in the morning. This day spent with Khalid touring Fez was truly one of the highlights of our Moroccan vacation.

Amazing trip! The drive is extremely long, but weirdly doesn’t feel too long as you have a number of stops along the way. Our driver out was quiet the whole way, but on the way back our new driver gave us so many interesting facts and insight as we went. Camel riding - ouch! But definitely one worth ticking off the bucket list. Great dinner in the evening too!

A must when in Fez, our tour guide spoke English well and explained every part of the medina with passion , also great opportunities to buy local crafts , clothing and experience the craftsman in the Midina, leather tannery in action. Be aware of prices upfront before committing to buy and be firm and clear when not interested to buy :-)

Aladin was absolutely magical! We couldn't recommend him and his brother more. He was so accommodating, knowledgeable and kind. He even put up with our desire to speak broken french even though he speaks really good English lol. Our trip would have been way less special if it was not for him. After having met him at his Riad in Fes (check it out...Riad Taha), we decided to completely alter our plans to go on a multiple city/desert tour. There is no way we would have even seen a third of what we saw on our own. His recommendations for sights was beyond what we believed this country would have to offer. The food...mind blowing! The van was super modern and reliable. The accommodations were so comfortable and clean. 5 starts all around. Thanks for our most memorable trip yet, Aladin!
