Getting around Fez

Getting around in Fez can be a challenge. The streets are arranged in a gridless maze and public transport is cheap but not recommended. Your best bet is flagging down taxis, which calculate rates on meters. Ville Nouvelle and Batha are easy places to catch a cab, but they can be picked up anywhere around the city. Save yourself the hassle and give the driver your destination after you’ve been driving a few seconds. Most drivers don’t like to take passengers short distances. 

Get your walking shoes ready for the rest of the time. Many of Fez’s winding streets are easier to travel on foot; there are colour-coded walking paths as well as tour guides available to direct you. 

Tickets for the local bus are cheap, but the buses are unreliable, unsafe and overcrowded. Pickpockets and accidents strike frequently. Bus 16 shuttles between the airport and the main train station regularly, but a taxi will get you to your destination much quicker and more comfortably.

What is good to know if travelling to Fez?

  • Walking around the Medina is one of the best ways to get a sense of the old city. The small alleyways, with shafts of sunlight breaking through the roofs, are a fascinating route of market stalls and food. They are also like an underground maze, and it is extremely easy to lose your bearings. Don’t panic and – unless you wanted to be parted with lots of money – don’t accept anyone’s offer of helping you find the way out. Eventually, you will resurface in the open air; just wandering aimlessly is one of the most enjoyable things to do in this vibrant city.
  • Moroccan cuisine has become seriously popular in the West recently. Prices and quality vary widely in Fez, however. In order to get the tastiest meals and to avoid paying tourist prices, head a little away from the more popular areas. Unmissable dishes include couscous, tagines (stews, slowly cooked in the distinctive peaked ceramic dish) and dried fruits.
  • Shopping is a popular and tempting pastime for visitors to the city. Moroccan specialities to look out for include ceramics and pottery, carpets, jewelry and of course the ever-popular babouche or Moroccan slipper. Fez’s speciality is complex embroidery, often to decorate tablecloths or djellebas, and leather goods. 
  • As with most African countries, if you’re planning on buying something, haggle, haggle, haggle. Expect to pay no more than half the original price you’re given (a third would be possible, depending on how much time you’ve got to spare…)

  • When is the best time to fly to Fez?

    Peak Season: The high season is February through May and September and October and when most visitors book flights to Fez. Spring is particularly beautiful with the blooming wildflowers. The annual Fez Festival of World Sacred Music is held the last week of May or first week of June. Fez flights and accommodation book up months in advance, so make your reservations ahead of time. Off Season: Rates are always negotiable in Morocco and even more so during the off season. Visiting between October and February spares you from crowds of tourists and many airlines offer cheap flights to Fez. For a winter visit bring warm clothing. The buildings are designed for a hot climate and can be chilly in winter. The Muslim Ramadan takes place in the ninth month of the Islamic calendar (July in 2012) and nearly all restaurants and cafes are closed during the day.
