Warm and Fez-y
Morocco’s second largest city, Fez, has become one of the travel insider’s favourite destinations thanks to its preserved old city, listed as a World Heritage Site, its architecture, galleries, madrasas and hidden green oases.
To showcase the best of the city, the experts from Riad Fès have put together a curated tour programme that includes everything from a guided visit to the medina to an intricate exploration of the city’s ancient walls.
Hike around the rivers and springs or horse ride through the mountain forests, experience the thermals of Moulay Yacoub or Sidi Harazem and taste all of the wonderful food on offer. Stays at Riad Fès start from €217 per room per night and breakfast is inclusive. riadfes.com
