Panoramic tour and Medina visit
The visit combines a panoramic drive around the outer parts of the city with a walking tour through its historic Medina.
We will begin with collection from your accommodation and visit the exterior of the Royal Palace, known for its impressive bronze doors decorated with traditional mosaics. We will continue through the old Jewish quarter, the Mellah, and visit a pottery cooperative to learn about the traditional production of the famous zellige mosaics and Fez ceramics.
We will also stop at a panoramic viewpoint where you can admire the entire Medina from above and take photographs.
The walking visit through Fez el-Bali will then begin, taking you along its narrow streets, souks, artisan workshops and traditional neighbourhoods. During the walk, you will discover emblematic places such as Bab Boujloud gate, Nejjarine square, the exterior of Al-Qarawiyyin University and Mosque, and the famous tanneries.
