Fez Private Day Trip from Rabat

The main aim of this Fez Day Experience is the exploration and discovery of the spiritual and cultural heart of Morocco’s imperial city. Your journey will start with a pick-up from your hotel or riad in Rabat, followed by a comfortable drive toward Fez.

The exploration of Fez will begin at Bab Boujloud (the Blue Gate), the emblematic entrance to the medina of Fès el-Bali (Old Fez). Your tour will then lead you to the visit of the Medersa Bou Inania, one of the most remarkable theological schools in the Arab world, celebrated for its carved plaster, marble details, and cedar woodwork.

You will then continue your walk through the medina’s atmospheric alleys before reaching La Maison Bleue, a refined 19th-century residence where you may choose to enjoy a carefully curated lunch in an elegant and serene setting. After this pause, your visit continues toward Place Nejjarine and the cabinet makers’ souk. The beautifully restored fondouk on the square houses the Nejjarine Museum of Wooden Arts and Crafts, showcasing centuries of artisanal mastery.

Your tour will then include a respectful exterior view of Al-Qarawiyyin University, considered the oldest continuously operating university in the world, offering a final moment of cultural appreciation before concluding your walk through the medina.

At the end of the visit, you will drive back to Rabat, where you will be dropped off at your hotel or riad.

By booking this Fez day trip, you will step back into the historical richness of Morocco and enjoy an exceptional experience exploring one of its oldest imperial cities.
