Destination

Fes, 1200 years of history

Fes, the birthplace of Moroccan history and culture, is a must-visit destination for travelers seeking authenticity. With its UNESCO World Heritage-listed Medina, the city offers a journey through time at the heart of one of the best-preserved medieval cities in the world. Its winding streets unveil a treasure trove of architecture: medrasas with dazzling details, historic mosques, lively souks, and iconic squares.

Just steps from our Riad, discover exceptional sites such as the Séfarine Square, famous for its copper artisans, or the Chouara Tanneries, where leather is worked in the open air using ancient techniques. Explore the imposing ramparts and monumental gates like Bab Boujloud, true icons of Moroccan art.

Fes is also a gastronomic capital. Its refined and generous cuisine invites you to explore local flavors, from fragrant tagines and crispy pastillas to traditional sweets like cornes de gazelle. At the Riad, we are dedicated to introducing you to these Moroccan specialties, carefully prepared in-house.

Finally, the city extends far beyond its Medina. From its heights, be captivated by breathtaking panoramas of the surrounding hills. Whether you are a history enthusiast, a food lover, or simply curious to discover new places, Fes is a destination that awakens all the senses. Immerse yourself in its unique atmosphere and let the richness of its heritage and the warmth of its people enchant you.
