One programme. Every useful detail.
Ask about pastilla fillings and discover local breads and market ingredients.
This is a proposed programme, not confirmed inventory. Route timings, prices and inclusions need provider approval before booking opens.
Discover more than the route.
The city’s origins lie in Idrisid settlements between the late eighth and early ninth centuries. Marinid rulers later added monuments and Fes Jedid. UNESCO recognises a historic urban fabric where architecture and traditional skills still connect with everyday life.
Bab Boujloud & medina
Start at a recognisable gate and explore with a local guide rather than trying to cover every lane.
Architecture & learning
Look for courtyards, fountains and carved decoration; confirm access to madrasas and religious sites.
Craft encounters
Discover pottery, metalwork and textiles. Discuss any workshop visit or purchase before committing.

A cooking encounter: Use a market-and-cooking experience to learn about ingredients and household food traditions. A market walk, cooking demonstration or tasting format is chosen only after a host confirms the actual service.
