The locals are too interested in helping; and you have to get used to the idea that every favor to you has a payoff to the one who offers the help. Aside from that, the people are friendly and lovely.
The medina was very nice and busy! There is a quiet park nearby the medina. The tanneries are worth a visit, as well as the viewing point just outside the medina. There aren’t so mant evening activities.
People come to Fez to visit the Medina and its landmarks - while a maze it can be negotiated keeping the two main thoroughfares as a reference (if in trouble ask a shopkeeper). Perfectly safe during the day (no hassling but it could be a bit overwhelming for the newcomer for its dirt conditions) but to be definitely avoided at night (some mugging at knife point). The best way to access is to get a Petite Taxi from hotel to Bab Bou Jeloud, walk through, exit at Bab Fettouh and take another Petite Taxi back. Best thing to see are the Madrasas as Bou Inania and Attarine (closed for restoration at the moment). There are other quite interesting Madrasas but unfortunately are only open occasionally for students, while Kairaouine is a fine Mosque but it can't be accessed by non-muslims.
We stayed at Riad 53, which was right on the edge of the Médina, a perfect location. Within a day, we had mastered the made of alleyways, at least around our Riad, and we really enjoyed wandering the market lanes. Don’t miss a visit to Bhalil, a Berber village in the mountains. It was an experience I’ll never forget.
Thrilling Medina with a cacophony of sights, sounds, smells, and experiences. The people are “pushy” yet kind and fun to engage. Their commercial energy comes from needing tourist dollars. Enjoyed each moment in the Medina. Dinner in the Clock restaurant was authentic with different local entertainment each evening. And they accept visa! We have traveled much of our world and never had an experience like the Fez Medina. If you have an opportunity to go, go.
Fès is so historical and attractive city. Especially arttecture is great.Riad was amazing. But I didn’t know marcket is almost closed on Friday. So I couldn’t see enough souk but I’m sure I’ll come visit Fes again!
“Abdoul is extremely warm and helpful. Helped me bargain SIM card and find cheap and nice local food. The hotel is clean and well decorated, breakfast was luxury. Near the blue gate, but need Abdoul's guidance for the first time.”
“Said and Yunis are really helpful: pick up us from blue gate, help to arrange guide to show us around, take-away breakfast as we leave quite early. There are many chaos in Fes whereas Dar Borj is like oasis, really authentic Morocco style.”
“The hotel was amazing and the staff really hepled us. You feel like staying with family. The decor is also fascinating. And it is located right in the old Medina ... If you ever go to Fez, you have to stay there!”
“The location was perfect. There are only 4 or 5 rooms so it's somewhat personalized. They even let you pick the time to have your breakfast, which was substantial and delicious! Mohammad was a great host! If you've never been here before, I HIGHLY recommend that you take up the hotel's offer to pick you up from the train station or airport. Fez Medina is a labyrinth to say the least!”
