27 Days Morocco Tour from Fes

This day is full exploration of the old Medina. Fes is one of the oldest cities in Morocco, with very narrow streets and thousands of shops. With your local guide, you walk slowly into small alleys where donkeys pass carrying goods, where people sell spices, where artisans make leather, and where old houses have beautiful doors. You visit the famous tanneries, a place where workers color leather using old methods, and you can see all colors from the top terrace. You also visit the old school with nice tiles, small fountains, and peaceful courtyards. You pass by metal workshops, wood carving shops, and traditional pottery stores. Your guide explains the history of the city and helps you understand how people live inside these walls for hundreds of years. It is a long deep day that shows the heart of Fes.
