On arrival

When you arrive in Fes, make your way to Bab Bou Jeloud, also known as the Blue Gate, the main entrance to the old medina. Our meeting point is right outside the gate, next to the small park area. Look for our representative holding a sign with our company name. They will guide you to the starting point of the tour.

If you are arriving by taxi, simply ask the driver to drop you off at Bab Bou Jeloud. If you prefer to walk, follow the signs leading to the old medina from any part of the city. Make sure to arrive at least 15 minutes before the scheduled start time to ensure a smooth beginning to your tour. If you have difficulties finding the meeting point, please do not hesitate to ask a local for directions, as Bab Bou Jeloud is a well-known landmark in Fes.

Things to note

- Wear comfortable walking shoes, as the tour involves a significant amount of walking through narrow and sometimes uneven streets.
- Dress modestly out of respect for local customs, especially when visiting religious sites.
- Bring a bottle of water and stay hydrated, especially during the warmer months.
- Be prepared for sensory experiences; the markets can be busy and bustling with a variety of sights, sounds, and smells.
It's advisable to bring cash in the local currency (Dirhams), as many small vendors may not accept credit cards.
- Keep your personal belongings secure and be mindful of pickpockets in crowded areas.
- If you have any allergies or dietary restrictions, please inform your tour guide in advance.
- Photography is generally allowed, but always ask for permission before taking pictures of people.
Due to the terrain of the old medina, the tour is not recommended for those with severe mobility issues.
