Why visit Fes? Is it worth visiting with kids?

When in northern Morocco, your time in Fes (or Fez) introduces you to a culture where the medina is a thousand years old. Yet you can feel the ways that tradition and modern culture come together. Whether in the French-designed Ville Nouvelle area or the traditional Medina, your time in Fes brings together delicious food, local crafts, and opportunities to gain more insight and understanding of an enduring culture.
Our family of four stayed a month in Fes, complete with medina tours, cooking classes, and so much more.
