An outline of the stops on a two-day trip from Fes to Chefchaouen:
Fes:
Our Fes to Chefchaouen journey takes only 2 days and is available via Morocco Expedition. The medieval city of Meknes and the blue jewel of Chefchaouen are also must-sees for our valued customers. Akchour is a great place to unwind and explore the Rif Mountains. Nonetheless, the day before going to Meknes, they are permitted to hire a guide in order to explore Fes. So, we compiled a list of places of interest in Fes for you:
Mosque of Bou Inania, or Madrasa
Among Fes’s first educational institutions, Merenid ruler Bou Inan commissioned its construction between 1350 and 1357. Non-Muslims are permitted entry and may appreciate the city’s stunning architecture. Take the T’alaa Lekbira in the old city to go to the Madrasa or the school.
In the Fes El Bali:
The Medina of Fes, also known as “Fes El Bali,” is the oldest part of the city. Both the modern and the ancient Medina may be accessed through the Blue gate of Bab Boujloud.
Visitors to Fes El Bali who are interested in purchasing a leather memento may do so in any number of local Souks.
The Old Foundouq and Medersa Sahrij are only two of the numerous historical sites nearby. The greatest vantage point is also conveniently located just outside the entrance gate (the minaret of the Medersa Bou Inania).
These are the Chouara Tanneries:
Known as Fes’s “tannery district,” this region has gained notoriety. Although hundreds of visitors flock there year, the site is notorious for its unpleasant odor. As a result, locals could think about packing some mint leaves. Crafts such as colorful Moroccan slippers, leatherwork, metalwork, etc. are produced locally. Safran, Ginger, and other spices are used.
In the evening, when the leather wholes are dry and vibrant, the area is at its most attractive. You may get a beautiful view for a low fee if you stay on the rooftop or balcony of a property.
One of the best souvenirs you can purchase is a pair of authentic leather shoes or a leather jacket.

Meknes:
The Roman remains, gates, plazas, and other highlights of Meknes are just some of the stops along the way on the two-day excursion from Fes to Chefchaouen. To help you plan your trip, our staff has provided the following details on the following attractions:
Volubilis:
Volubilis, the Roman remains, are a must-see. Meknes’s old town, which mostly predates the city’s golden age, is the city’s most popular tourist destination. When you arrive at your destination with one of our Morocco tour guides, you’ll have the opportunity to learn everything about the region’s rich history.
The Gate of the Sphinx (Bab El Mansour)
The primary entrance to the city from the Meknes suburbs. A great example of the surviving gates, it is admired across Africa. Known for having the best architecture and design in all of Fes. The two-day trip from Fes to Chefchaouen is not complete without seeing this beautiful example of zellige tiling and carved woodwork.
Medina, both the old and the new:
Every major city in Morocco has two distinct parts: the old city, with its ancient gates, squares, and architectural structures, and the new city, which is typically more modern. Souks are a must-see in Meknes, and you’ll get to see both of them here. Places like the Marche central and the Souk Sehb Mabrouka are just a few examples.
Moulay Ismail, Sultan of Morocco, oversaw its construction, which was completed in 1732.
To quote Heri Es-Souani:
Meknes’ wheat grain was stored at the Heri Es-Souani under the reign of Moulay Ismail. Moreover, the Imperial City’s grain storage facilities and stables are located there. At one time, there were almost 20,000 horses in the region.
