Three of Morocco's most historic sites — Fes, Meknes and Volubilis — sit within a short drive of each other, making a perfect two- or three-day loop.
Fes
Start in the Fes medina, the cultural heart of Morocco. A Fes Medina guided tour covers the tanneries, madrasas and souks.
Volubilis
About 30 km from Meknes, Volubilis is the best-preserved Roman site in North Africa. Don't miss the Triumphal Arch, the Capitol and the remarkable floor mosaics.
Meknes
One of Morocco's four imperial cities, built by Sultan Moulay Ismail. See the grand Bab el-Mansour gate, the royal stables and the massive Heri es-Souani granaries.
How to tour all three
The easiest way is a Fes–Meknes–Volubilis tour, which covers Volubilis and Meknes in a private day or two from Fes. Combine it with a day in the Fes medina for a complete cultural loop.
Tips
- Go to Volubilis early to beat the heat and the crowds.
- Allow a full day for Meknes and Volubilis together.
- A private guide brings the Roman and imperial history to life.
