Summer 2026: save 10% on all Sahara desert tours booked this month

Fes

Region: North

Fes el-Bali is a UNESCO time machine: 9,000 car-free lanes where donkeys still deliver the goods, coppersmiths hammer as they did in the Middle Ages, and the University of Al Quaraouiyine — founded in 859 — still teaches. The famous Chouara tanneries, seen from a leather-shop terrace, are one of travel's great spectacles.

Give it two days and a good local guide: medersas dressed in zellige and cedar, the potteries of the Armenian quarter, and rooftop dinners over a skyline of green minarets.
