Tour Details

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the main entrance of the School Moulay Idriss. For 3 hours, we'll explore the streets of this Moroccan city to discover the oldest landmarks in the Medina of Fez.

Not far from our meeting point, we'll find the famous Bab Bou Jeloud Gate. Also known as 'the Blue Gate', this magnificent monument marks the main entrance to the Medina -the city's old town-. From there, we'll walk along the two commercial streets of Fez: Talaa Kebira and Talaa Seghira.

While we admire the colorful stalls in both streets, we'll learn about the history of the city. What's more, during the walking tour we'll visit the Al-Attarine Madrasa or the Bou Inania Madrasa, depending on availability on the day. Do you know what these places were used for? We'll reveal it to you on the day of the tour!

Our next stop on the free tour will be the Funduq al-Najjariyyin, also known as the Nejjarine Museum of Wooden Arts & Crafts. We'll admire its exterior and continue to the Mausoleum of Mulay Idris II, a shrine dedicated to this former king of Morocco from the early 9th century.

And we'll reach our final destination: the Chouwara tannery. Here, we'll see the infinite number of pits containing natural dyes used to produce and color the leather of lamb, ox, goat, and camel. It'll definitely be a unique and surprising experience!

Lastly, after between 2.5 and 3 hours, we'll arrive at the square of R'cif Mosque, one of the most peaceful places in Fez.

Group Size

This free tour doesn't admit groups of more than 6 people, even if they book the activity separately. If you're part of a larger group, we recommend booking this private tour of Fez.
