All Fez Tours & Excursions in 2026 - page 3

We had a good time with Mohammed as our driver. He was quite knowledgeable about Morroco and Fes. We learned a lot. Once we were in the Blue City, Hazim, really did an amazing job in showing all the highlights of Chefchaouen. He was like the major of the city! Friendly to everyone and everyone knew him. Thank you for a great time!

We spent two days touring the Fez medina with Ahmed, and we’re glad we did. He’s kind, polite, flexible, and full of fun facts about life in Morocco — everything from how people live in the medina to the realities of work, family, and daily routines. He shared pieces of his own story as well, which made the experience feel more personal and grounded. Ahmed is an excellent navigator of the medina’s complexity. He gave us confidence to explore on our own later, and he answered every question we threw at him — cultural, historical, religious, practical. He never rushed us, and he adjusted the pace and route based on what we were interested in. A few things future travelers should know, not about Ahmed specifically but about how guiding works in Fez: You will be taken into some shops. This is standard practice for all guides in Morocco — there’s a commission system, and it’s part of the ecosystem. If you’re not interested in fabrics, rugs, leather, or lamps, just say so. Ahmed is very respectful when you’re clear about your preferences. If you are interested in buying something, tell him. He can help you negotiate, and you should never accept the first price. Walking out is normal; it’s part of the dance. Remember you’re not obligated to buy anything. Think of it as an educational stop unless you decide otherwise. We did learn a lot about fabrics, rugs, and leather and we appreciated that. If you want a tour focused purely on history, architecture, religion, or photography — say it upfront. Ahmed will tailor the day to you as best he can. What we appreciated most was Ahmed’s openness. He talked about his life, his hopes, his family, and the realities of living in the medina. Those conversations were some of the most memorable parts of our time in Fez. Overall, Ahmed is a thoughtful and knowledgeable guide, and spending two days with him enriched our trip. Go in with a sense of curiosity, be clear about what you want to see (and what you don’t), and you’ll have a great experience. We originally just booked one day with Ahmed but liked him so much we added a second day. Our visit to Fez was really enhanced by the time we spent with Ahmed. Thank you Ahmed!

Soufiane was an amazing tour guide! He explained everything very well, and was very knowledgable. He was really funny and made the whole tour lighthearted and fun, not to mention his taste of music was fantastic. Abdelkader navigated through many difficult mountain roads while making sure the ride was as smooth as possible. These two made an excellent pair, and it wouldn't have been better any other way. Highly recommend this tour. If you have Soufiane as a tour guide, you know you are in the best hands.

I was pleased with my driver, Mohcine, and he did a great job of picking me up in Fez to begin journey. He was attentive to my needs on the multi-hour journey and made rest stops as needed. I enjoyed my time in Chefchaouen and it I had to do it over again I would have stayed a couple of nights in the city, then journeyed on to Tangier. It was my first trip to Morocco and I found the people welcoming. The natives are eager to show you their country and genuinely extend their hospitality to visitors.

Our driver, Said Arfoud, was the BEST driver and guide. He communicated well and was very organized. He is a very safe driver under challenging circumstances as we experienced in the Atlas Mountains in December. He shared his great taste in music with us too. Finally, Said went out of his way to make sure we arrived at our Riad safely at the end of our 3 day tour

Ismail and Mouhamad were amazing hosts and kept us entertained, informed, and engaged at all points during our trip. It is definitely a once in a lifetime opportunity. I recommend riding camels on direction and renting the ATVs for the other to get a full feel for the Sahara.

Our wonderful driver and tour guide Said took us on an absolutely magical journey from Fes through the Merzouga desert and the Dades Gorge! He was a phenomenal driver who always made sure we were safe and comfortable. He found the perfect private spots to take scenic photos and the best affordable and delicious places to eat with authentic Berbere dishes and tea. He made sure we always had the perfect amount of time at each location so that we would also be able to enjoy the sunrise and sunset in the desert. He is also the kindest sweetest and most fun person you could imagine and it honestly felt like traveling with a beloved family member! Said also made sure to take us to certain shopping places that support local communities like a young woman who was starting her first store and a cooperative of women who work in Argan oil. You can tell how much he loves his community and how much they love and respect him—it is almost like traveling with a celebrity because he seems to know everyone!! It was a true gift to see the Sahara desert, the Atlas Mountains and all the villages with Said. He is the type of person who makes a trip truly special and memorable and we hope we get the privilege of seeing him again soon!!

This was a fantastic experience. Great way to see a good part of the countryside. The camel ride was fun and sunset and sunrise at the desert was just wow! We would highly recommend it. Our tour guide Ahmed was great and exceeded our expectations as a driver and our host. We would happily recommend him to our friends and family. Thank you, Ahmed!
