Fez & The Middle Atlas
Charming narrow-alley medinas, ancient Roman ruins, and picturesque whitewashed hilltop towns
Come for:
- A never-ending labyrinth of high walled streets, winding narrow alleys, colorful souks, hidden squares and iconic medieval monuments in spectacular Fez (as well as in Meknes, often referred to as a smaller version of Marrakesh)
- The UNESCO World Heritage ancient ruins of Volubilis, an inviting basilica of arches, pillars and beautiful mosaics
- Picturesque, whitewashed hilltop towns with a relaxed vibe and beautiful views of surrounding countryside (the holy Islamic town of Moulay Idriss)
Do not expect
- To escape the tourist crowds – beyond Marrakesh, Fez is perhaps the most popular destinations in the country
- The grand snow-capped mountains Morocco has to offer – head to the High Atlas region for those
