Day tour of Medina - Mohammed was a great guide, showing us both outside and inside the medina walls. We particularly enjoyed seeing the ceramics cooperative, souks, and tannery. He made us feel comfortable navigating the crowded alleys and took us to a wonderful hidden gem for lunch. Very friendly and knowledgeable.
Highly recommend this tour for all visitors to Fes.
