About Activity
Embark on a journey from Fez after breakfast, heading towards Meknes, an
imperial city encased within the formidable triple layers of walls and
bastions.
Established in 1672 by a formidable king who aimed for its grandeur to rival
European royal cities, Meknes unfolds its history on a sightseeing tour.
Explore the renowned granaries and stables from the 17th century, pay
homage at the king's mausoleum, and wander through the main square. A
highlight awaits at Bab el Mansour, an imposing gate immortalized in a
famous painting by Delacroix, marking the entrance to the royal quarter.
Enjoy some free time to peruse the traditional food market, where Moroccan
pastries, olives, and an array of spices tantalize the senses.
In the afternoon, venture to the Roman Ruins of Volubilis, the most
remarkable archaeological site in Morocco. A specialist guide will lead an
insightful tour of this ancient city, unveiling its historical richness.
As the day winds down, return to Fez by late afternoon, your senses filled
with the history and flavors of Meknes and Volubilis.
