from Fes tours:

Fes excursions, whether private or in a group, are a favourite choice among travelers on our travels to Morocco. When it comes to the Moroccan cities that tourists fly to.

From Fes, you may go on a variety of private and group desert excursions.

Fes:

Our trips begin in Fes, so you can have a full day to explore the city before setting off on your desert adventure. Fes is home to a plethora of fascinating sights and sounds. For a variety of reasons, it is recognized to be the cultural capital of the nation. Additionally, it is the capital of Morocco.

We offer a variety of trips in Fes, and these are the key sights you’ll see:

Fes’ most renowned tanneries district, the Chouara Tanneries, is also the city’s biggest. It was built in the 17th century and restored in 2016 to seem like a high-end restaurant. When you arrive, the finest location to take in the scenery is from the balconies that line the streets. You should also attempt to visit in the morning, when the dried dirt holes are cleansed and brightly colored. The patio of a renowned leather store is the ideal location for this. Numbers 10 and 64 on the street are popular with tourists. In light of the abundance of salespeople in the neighborhood, you may simply dismiss any sales pitches you get. Negotiation is a must in any area of Morocco if you want to obtain a good deal on anything.

An historic school in the Moroccan city of Fes is named after Faris ibn Ali Abu Inan al-Mutawakkil, and its building exemplifies the country’s traditional style. This Madrasa may only be accessed through Tala’ Seghira or Tal’ Lekbira streets. Dar Al Magana is the name given to the building on the other side of it. A highly opulent mosque with elements of Moroccan design. The Madrasa is said to have been constructed by the same architect.

Fes has a lot to offer, but these are just a few of the best things to see and do. For additional information, please get in touch with us.

From Fes, you may take a trip to Chefchaouen:

North of Marrakech is Chefchaouen, often known as the blue pearl. With its blue walls and gorgeous mountains, it draws a large number of visitors.

It’s known for its water springs, shopping malls, and a slew of other enticing attractions.

Our excursions from Fes, Morocco, to Chefchaouen, Morocco, take you to the following destinations:

Chefchaouen’s old city and Medina are great places to go shopping. Many travelers may want to take home a piece of the city’s vibrant culture as a memento. Unlike the bustling souks of Marrakech and Fes, in this little Moroccan town, the souks are much more intimate. It is most known for its laid-back atmosphere, not for its throngs of people. Shoes and coats alike are made renowned in this city’s leather-goods industry.

Akchour is a stunning destination to visit after experiencing the beautiful city of Chefchaouen. Akchour’s stunning waterfalls, which are within 30 minutes from the city center, are a popular tourist destination.

The gardens of the Kasbah are a popular spot for visitors to the Medina. The Kasbah Museum is housed among these complexes. A stunning location with a gallery of fine art to boot. If you’re curious in the history and culture of this charming city, pay a visit there.

Every Moroccan city has at least one square, and this is Plaza Uta al-Hammam. The Uta el-Hammam is a nice location to unwind in the heart of Chefchaouen. Also, if you’re game for sampling some local food, this is the way to go.

It is possible to see Ifrane on one of our desert journeys from Fes.

You may visit Ifrane on any of our desert trips from Fes, whether it’s a private or group one. To begin with, you’ll go from Fes to Ifrane across the Middle Atlas Mountains. Last but not least, it’s the eighth best city in the world and the best in Africa. The city garden is the main draw for visitors. During the Second World War, a German prisoner made this lovely statue of a white lion. Previously, Ifrane was a camp for troops, and the statue of a German soldier was sculpted by him in order to be freed.

Ifrane is also home to one of the country’s largest institutions, the University of Alakhaouin, which attracts students from all over the world. On the other hand, this one sits at the very front of the palace.

Skiing is another activity you’d like. Considering that Ifrane is the coldest city in Morocco, it receives snow during the winter months. There are a variety of ski groups and businesses to choose from, all of which can provide an unforgettable skiing experience.

Our individual and group desert trips from Fes will take you to the Ziz Valley:

The Ziz Valley in Morocco is one of the most beautiful valleys in the country. Our Fes desert trips include visits to Ifrane and the High Atlas Mountains before arriving in the Ziz Valley.

The city of Erfoud is one of the numerous highlights of our Fes desert treks to Merzouga. Merzouga, a town in the Sahara Desert, can be reached in about 40 minutes. Known as the city of fossils, Erfoud is a popular destination for archaeologists. According to legend, the area between Erfoud and Merzouga, as well as nearby villages, was once covered by a sea millions of years ago. That helps to explain why there are so many fossils in the mountains surrounding this city.

Date palm oases dot the landscape around Erfoud.

There are many Kasbahs for stone extraction specialists if you’d like to see how they carve on the fossils. Traditionally, a dates festival is held in honor of the fruit’s peak season during the third week of October.

 

You can visit the souk in Rissani from Erfoud. Furthermore, it is referred to as the desert souk because it was the first of its kind in the region.

Merzouga camel rides and night at the Berber Tent are surely the highlights of our Morocco private and group desert tours from Fes. After visiting all the attractions from Ifrane to Erfoud, 40 minutes to arrive at the Erg Chebbi desert. One of Morocco’s various ergs, it’s sand dunes climb up to 150m affording it’s tourists wonderful panoramic views for the city and the lake of Srij.

Your first discovery is the Hassi Labied oasis, a collection of agricultural fields near the Erg Chebbi sand dunes. To irrigate their property, the people of Hassi Labied rely on subsurface water.

Also on the itinerary is a trip to Morocco’s Individual Auto Museum, which is owned by a wealthy UAE national. Explore the surroundings and go to Khamlia, a small settlement in the region.

The Touareg people, who are from Gabon, Mali, and other nations, will be introduced to you when you arrive at the settlement specified.

In the end, you may either return to your hotel in Merzouga by the same route you came in on or remain at the camp.

Near Fezna, there is an irrigation system:

In the past, the Berber tribes of Morocco relied on subterranean water to irrigate their farmland. After visiting Erfoud returning from Merzouga, a big expanse of subterranean irrigation system can be found near to Fezna city. To put it another way, a large number of wells are interconnected. We can safely state that in the summer, the scorching heat dries them all out. The people of Fezna are renowned for their love of dates, which is why they drew and linked these wells.

When you arrive, you’ll be awed by the depth of the wells. Not to mention, they’ll show you where they obtain their water.

Todgha Gorges are included in our private, small-group, Fes desert trips.The Dades and Todgha Gorges in the south are two of Morocco’s most renowned and beautiful gorges.

Once you’ve seen Fezna’s gorgeous irrigation canals, you’ll head to Tinghir, the date capital of the world. The valley of Todgha, which is a major source of dates in the nation, gives the area its name. Once you’ve had your fill of the vistas, you’ll travel to the canyons.

The first thing you’ll want to do when you arrive is go for a stroll around the neighborhood, like most visitors do.

Boumalne Dades is around a half-hour drive from Todgha Gorges. It’s a stunning location famed for its many Kasbahs with stunning vistas. When referring to the valleys, it is quite similar to Todgha. From the Gorges to the outskirts of the city, the Dades valley is around 80 kilometers long (5km).Wadi gorges, such as the Dades Gorges, may be found in the High Atlas Mountains.

For non-professional drivers, it’s impossible to make it to the top of the Gorges on the final road indicated.The Gorges and the valley are well seen from the hotel’s vantage point above.

The Kasbah Amrhidil rises above the surrounding fortifications after a short journey to the Skoura River. It was built in the 13th century. It’s unique since they still have a 50 MAD inside. There are also relics from the days when people lived in mud huts, so it’s more like a museum.

The spectacular Oasis may be seen if you follow the stairwell all the way to the top. This is a great opportunity to view the tribe’s lodging.

The Kasbah’s owners, the Nassiri family, built a modest hotel to supplement their income, and it can be found immediately adjacent to the Kasbah for those who like to spend more time admiring it.

People believe Ben Haddou is buried beneath the town of Ait Ben Haddou, the creator of the Kasbah.Once you arrive, the Ounila Valley, which stretches for at least 50 kilometers, will astound you.

The only way to get to the top of the building is to use the stairs. On the journey, you’ll learn how the Kasbah is painted in an old-fashioned manner (mixing green tea with sugar then burn the paper).
