Day 2: Rabat to Fes
After breakfast on day two with breakfast, then it’s time to leave Rabat behind. We’ll travel through vast farmlands to Meknes, nicknamed “the Moroccan Versailles.” This grand city was founded in the 17th century and boasts impressive architecture.
Snap photos at the massive Bab El Mansour gate, a true showstopper. Next, we’ll delve into the heart of Meknes with a city tour that includes the Harri Souani stables (once home to impressive royal horses), the old Medina (market area), and the beautiful royal palace.
Ready for another stop? We’ll head to the sacred town of Moulay Idriss, a pilgrimage site for many Moroccans. After some independent lunchtime, for a step back in time at Volubilis, UNESCO-listed Roman ruins stand proudly.
Our final destination today is Fes, where you’ll check into your hotel and rest for another day.
Tour Reviews
Our trip to Morocco was incredible! Hassan and Ali were the absolute best. They were super nice and always willing to help. They showed us the coolest parts of the city and even hooked us up with an awesome desert tour! Riding camels and sweeping through the dunes was amazing! They shared their food with us and told us interesting stories about Morocco. We couldn’t have asked for more friendly and welcoming people. If you’re ever in Morocco, you meet Hassan and Ali!
Our first trip to Morocco with the kids! We were a little nervous since it was outside of Europe, but let me tell you, it was amazing! I highly recommend our tour guide, Hassan from Trips Around Morocco. He was super helpful and planned everything perfectly. It was great he’s such a nice guy and you can trust him.
