Fez Guided Tour

We had a fantastic half day tour of the old Medina - our guide was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of history and Information about Fez. We saw the tanneries and leaned a lot about local artisans and their different skills. I would highly recommend this as the Medina has thousands of alleys and is quite a navigational challenge

I had a wonderful tour with my guide, Bash. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the Medina’s history, and enthusiastic about explaining all of the different crafts. I was able to see and learn far more about the Medina than I otherwise would have. Thanks again Bash!

Mr Bash was a terrific guide. He was knowledgeable, friendly, easy to communicate with and quite sensitive to our needs. I highly recommend him for a Medina tour

Our guide, Momo, was very knowledgeable and he took us outside the Medina and all through the Medina as well. He knew the hidden gems and was so helpful

We had our guided tour with Mohamed and he was absolutely incredible. While walking around all of Fes, it felt like he knew someone every few feet. We literally felt like we were with a local celebrity. Mohamed took care of us in so many ways. He explained all of the history in such detail and passion, showed us his favorite spots around the city such as hammams, restaurants, and even souvenirs shops. He seriously keeps such a good look out for you even while negotiating on purchasing and ensures that his clients are taken care of fairly. He helped us book reservations for lunch translated everything. Since we were here on a Friday, many things were closed and he even brought us to a palace that was closed because his friend works there. Top notch experience. If you’re ever in Fes and looking for a guided tour, I cannot recommend Mohamed enough. He’s beyond kind, generous, and even funny. I would recommend him and his company anytime.

Good information and history

I had an absolutely incredible experience exploring the Fes medina with my guide Uyounes, arranged through Riad Fes Maya. As a first-time visitor to Fes, I was completely overwhelmed by the ancient medina — but Uyounes made everything so magical and memorable! He took me through the most fascinating parts of the medina — the famous Chouara tanneries, the stunning mosques, the beautiful Ruined Garden, the traditional carpet cooperatives, the argan oil cooperative, the aromatic spice souks and the most authentic tea stops. But what truly set him apart was how he brought the medina ALIVE — explaining the history of the ancient streets, the meaning behind the beautiful carved doors, the rich culture and traditions of Fes that you simply cannot read in any guidebook. He took me through hidden narrow streets and secret corners that I would never have discovered on my own — showing me the real soul of this ancient city. He also knew all the best photo spots and helped me capture truly stunning memories. Uyounes was patient, warm, knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about sharing his beautiful city. Every question I asked was answered with such depth and enthusiasm. If you are visiting Fes medina — ask Riad Fes Maya for Uyounes. He will transform your experience completely. An absolute gem of a guide! Highest recommendation — 5 stars without hesitation!

We had the most incredible tour today of the Fes Imperial City (old medina) with Momo! He took great care of us, and I feel 100% confident that he only took us to the highest quality establishments (we could actually see the artisans working), and I found the prices reasonable and was so impressed with the many artisans’ work that we saw. We learnt and saw so much in one day, and we ate the best tender lamb kabobs from his favourite place. He then arranged for a driver to take us to see all the main sites outside the Medina car.

I would recommend MoMo fir your guide in Fes. He has so much information about the city. He guided us through the old Medina and took us to each art to see the how the leather was made and dye, pottery, tiles and mosaic. Was shown how the carpets and scarves were made, etc. And the tour ended with a fantastic panoramic view of the Medina. I will recommend him to my family and friends when they come to Morocco.

Momo gave us an excellent tour of the medina. We learned a lot about this beautiful city that we probably would not have discovered on our own. Momo was also good about tailoring the experience to our interests.
