Our group adventure ends in the ancient and hectic city of Fez where we are staying at possibly the most beautiful riad I have ever seen!
Fez Riad Al Makan is a slice of traditional heaven with stunning tiles, ornately carved wood and all the Moroccan hospitality you can dream of.
Fez is one of the largest cities in Morocco, with a population of 1.2 million, according to the 2024 census.
And where better to buy the iconic headwear than straight from its makers?!!
Located to the northwest of the Atlas Mountains, it is surrounded by hills and the old city is centered around the Fez River.
As with all Morrocan cities it is packed full of stunning traditional craftmanship.
The city consists of two old medina quarters, Fes el-Bali and Fes Jdid, and the much larger modern urban Ville Nouvelle area founded during the French colonial era.
The Medina of Fez is listed as a World Heritage Site and is one of the world’s largest and oldest urban pedestrian zones.
We’re off to see one of the most famous, and smelly attractions of Fez next!!
