Discover Fes, Morocco’s oldest imperial city and its spiritual heart. Nestled in the Middle Atlas, Fes is a living museum of Islamic history, culture, and architecture. Founded in 789 by Idriss I, it became the first capital of Morocco and later evolved into a major intellectual and religious center of the Muslim world.
Explore its rich heritage through iconic landmarks, ancient medinas, and vibrant souks. From the majestic Royal Palace and its stunning golden gates, to the Jewish quarter (Mellah) and the impressive Danan Synagogue, Fes tells a thousand-year-old story.
Visit Fes el Jedid, the “New Fes”, built by the Marinids in the 13th century to house royal palaces, mosques, and gardens. Walk through Bab Smarine Gate, discover the bustling souks, and admire the architecture of Jama el Hamra and Bab Dakene.
A highlight of the tour is the Qarawiyyin University, considered the world’s oldest still-operating university, and a symbol of Fes’s intellectual legacy.

Its labyrinthine medina, UNESCO World Heritage status, and preserved traditions make it one of Morocco’s most authentic and captivating cities
