More to book in Fez
The old medina of Fez is a dense web of narrow lanes with no cars, where the main gate, the souks, the madrasas and the tanneries all sit within walking distance of each other. It is easy to get lost, and a guide helps you see what you are walking past.
The free tour is a walk of around three hours through the medina. Booking costs nothing and you tip the guide at the end, but entrance fees to some sites are paid separately on the day.
Good to know before you go
- Wear comfortable, closed shoes: the medina is uneven and the lanes are busy.
- Summer afternoons are hot. Morning or late-day slots are easier to enjoy.
- Carry a little cash for the entrance fees that are not included in the tour.
