Morocco's imperial capital of craft and history
Fes Desert Tours
Fes el Bali is one of the best-preserved medieval medinas in the Arab world, and its position north of the Middle Atlas makes it a natural start for routes that cross cedar forests and the Ziz Valley on the way to Merzouga.
Why start here
- Fes el Bali, a car-free medieval medina
- Middle Atlas cedar forests en route to the desert
- A quieter, more traditional start than Marrakech
