The Volubilis site can be reached by private taxi, tourbus or walking from Moulay Idriss. It is a medium -sized site that takes 1.5 - 2hrs to visit in reasonable depth. The entry fee is only 10 dirhrams
Remember to bring a hat and bottle of water. Of all the places I visited in Morcocco, this was my favourite

Adjacent to the small town of Moulay Idriss Zerhoun is a beautiful historic well preserved aquaduct perched between two hills. It is still in use to provide water to the city. It is not the size that is impressive, but the integrity of the structure and the location. Take a steep walk up the hill from the northern square.

Although it's only an entrance, it's magnificent! I'd advise getting a guide to explain all the history, metal work and mosaics. Because it's so near a busy road, there were many other tourists like us admiring it making it impossible to get a reasonable photo so try to admire it when it's less hectic.

The Roman ruins contain a victory arch, impressive basilica and spectacular mosaics.
The point of my review title is that seeing these Roman ruins was a very nice contrast to all the other things we did in Morocco (Old Medinas, mosques, tradesmen, souks, camels, and driving). Wandering through these uncrowded ruins really provided a very peaceful recharge day for us.
It is a good idea to get a guide just so you’re not guessing where you are and don’t miss anything, although it’s not complicated and you’ll be fine without one. They asked 200Dirhams and we thought that was too much so we walked on. Soon enough another guide accepted my offer of 100Dirhams, which for less than an hour was fair for everyone.
This stop gave us the energy or peace or whatever to make the rest of our five hour drive back to Marrakech. We decided to skip Meknes proper since we had spent two days in both Marrakech and Fes. I think that was a good call.
