All about Fez

When to Visit

The best time to visit Fez is during spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November), when the weather is mild and ideal for exploring the city’s outdoor attractions. Summers (June to August) can be hot, with temperatures exceeding 35°C (95°F), but evenings are cooler and pleasant. Winters (December to February) are cooler and quieter, with occasional rain, offering a more peaceful experience in the medina.

Getting Around

Fez is best explored on foot, especially the medina, which is car-free. Comfortable walking shoes are essential for navigating its uneven streets. Taxis are widely available for traveling to newer parts of the city, while buses offer affordable transport. Guided tours are recommended for first-time visitors to navigate the medina’s maze-like layout.

Traveler Tips

Wear comfortable shoes and dress modestly to respect local customs. Visit the tanneries early in the day for the best views and activity. Hire a licensed guide to explore the medina and learn about its hidden gems. Try Moroccan dishes like pastilla, harira, and mint tea at local restaurants. Bargain when shopping in the souks, but keep it friendly and respectful. Carry small cash for purchases, as not all vendors accept cards. Plan visits to the medina in the morning to avoid crowds and the midday heat. Consider staying in a riad for an authentic Moroccan experience.
