Fes
About
What makes my tours special is the connection — not just with the city, but with its people, its stories, and its soul. I was born and raised inside the old Medina of Fes, and every alley has a memory, every stone has a story.
With over 40 years of guiding experience, I don’t just show you the sights — I help you feel them. You’ll walk through history, meet local artisans, taste authentic life, and see the hidden gems most travelers miss. My tours are flexible, personal, and always filled with laughter, stories, and cultural insights that come straight from the heart.
For me, guiding isn’t a job — it’s a passion and a promise: to make your time in Morocco unforgettable.

Bab Boujloud
If you’re not staying inside the Medina, you can meet me at Bab Boujloud (the Blue Gate) — the main entrance to the old city. I’ll be waiting right by the gate at the start time, easy to recognize and ready to begin your tour.
We’ll begin your journey at the famous Blue Gate, the main entrance to the old Medina. Its blue and green tiles shimmer in the sunlight, symbolizing the colors of Fes — knowledge and faith. From here, the maze of ancient alleys opens before us, full of mystery, history, and life.

Bou Inania Medersa
One of the most beautiful Islamic schools in Morocco. You’ll admire its stunning cedar wood carvings, marble floors, and zellige mosaics. I’ll share with you stories of how scholars once studied here — centuries before modern universities even existed.
20 minutes
3
Rue Talaa Kebira
We’ll stroll through the vibrant main artery of the Medina — a world of colors, aromas, and sounds. Here, artisans, spice merchants, and locals bring Fes to life. It’s the perfect place to feel the city’s energy, stop for photos, and taste local snacks if you wish.

Mosque and University Kairaouine
University of Al-Qarawiyyin
We’ll visit the oldest university in the world, founded in 859 AD by Fatima al-Fihri, a visionary woman from Tunisia. I’ll tell you how it became a beacon of science, philosophy, and culture long before Europe’s great universities were born.
15 minutes

Place Seffarine
The sound of hammers fills the air as metalworkers shape copper and brass by hand — just as their ancestors did centuries ago. Watch the sparks fly and see how traditional Moroccan teapots and trays come to life before your eyes.

Chouara Tannery
One of Fes’s most iconic sights! From the viewing terraces, you’ll witness the ancient process of leather-making — with natural dyes in vivid reds, yellows, and browns. I’ll explain how the craftsmen preserve a tradition that hasn’t changed in 1,000 years.
