This full-day small-group tour lasting about 8 hours visits three distinct locations starting with the ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis. Visitors spend around one hour exploring the 2,000-year-old remains of the Roman Empire settlement. Next, the tour stops at Moulay Idriss Zerhoun, a holy town on a hill known for the tomb of Idris I, where there is time to walk around, see city views, and try local handmade candy. The main part of the day is spent in Meknes, beginning with a walk along the city walls and monumental gates such as Berdaïne Bab and Bab Khemis dating back to the 17th century. The tour continues through areas including the stables (Rua), attics (HERI), and stud. A visit to the Mausoleum of Moulay Ismail is included, notable as the only mosque historically accessible to non-Muslims in Morocco. The tour exits via Bab Mansour Gate onto the large El Hedim Square, built in the 1670s after Sultan Moulay Ismail demolished part of the old city to create his palace and square. Additional stops include the Dar Jamai Museum, which houses Moroccan handicrafts, and time to appreciate the gates and squares of Meknes. Transportation is provided in an air-conditioned minivan with a professional English-speaking driver. Hotel pickup in Fez is included. Entrance fees, meals, drinks, gratuities, and local guides are not included.
