What To Expect
Place Seffarine
Place Seffarine is where one of Fez's oldest and most traditional crafts is practised: metal working (in this case, copper) using heat and a hammer to turn it into teapots, cooking pots, tea caddies, trays or containers used in the preparation of tagines or cous-cous, among other things.
The al-Qarawiyyin mosque, a religious school / college was founded by Fatima al-Fihri in 859 with an associated school, or madrasa, which subsequently became one of the leading spiritual and educational centers of the historic Muslim world. It was incorporated into Morocco’s modern state university system in 1963. It is the oldest existing, continually operating and the first degree awarding educational institution in the world according to UNESCO and Guinness World Records and is sometimes referred to as the oldest university. Mederssa attarin enter 20 dirhams ( 2 eur) per person

Excellent full-day tour through and around Fez Medina

5.00Josef and Mohamed were excellent guides. One showed us the highlights around the outside of the Fez Medina by car, and the other navigated through the footpaths on the Medina to show us highlights. Both gentlemen were warm and kind and patient, and very knowledgeable too. An excellent day and as the Medina is so bewildering we simply would not have seen many of its parts without their expertise. Highly recommended!
So much fun!

5.00We had a great time with Youssef today. He really knows the city and especially the medina very well and took us to some places that we would have never found on our own. He was kind and patient. Without his guide our first day in Fes would not have been as full or fun as it was. Thank you!
The BEST one-day-in-Fes activity

5.00Youssef was the best tour guide! If you do one thing in Fes, do this private tour with Youssef! If includes the Medina, souks, historical highlights, local knowledge and history, the best mint tea, views and taxi rides to various locations outside the medina. Youssef took me to shop with no pressure at co-ops that support numerous artisans. It wasn't a problem if I bought nothing and just took the tour by the artisan guides. I would highly recommend this private tour with Youssef to everyone, he will tailor it to your interests and energy levels.
The best ever!
