Step 1

Your driver will pick you up at your hotel or riad and take you back in time to a world of 12 centuries. You will visit the following sites:
- The doors of the Royal Palace incredibly and beautifully decorated.
- The Jewish quarter - The Mellah - all around surrounded by fortified gates. The Mellah also contains a Jewish cemetery and a cynagogue.
- The famous blue door - Bab Boujloud - one of the two main entrances to the medina of Fez.

- Panoramic views of southern and northern Borges or fortresses, formerly used as strategic defense points during wars.
- Cooperative pottery and tiles - Zallij - where you can observe how various types of pottery and small tiles and mosaics found in riads are made of very skilled hands.

All of the above sites can be visited by moving your private car from one place to another with your driver's company.
