What you can expect

Fes food tour - As sun sets behind the rooftops of the world’s largest and oldest medina, Fes transforms into a maze of smoky grills, and generations-old food traditions still alive in its 9,000 alleyways. Most visitors stick to the main tourist artery, but this roaming food feast leads you deep into the real city to street carts, hole-in-the-wall joints, and family kitchens that have fed Fassis for decades.
