Fez Food Tasting and Medina Walking Tour

The Fez Food Tasting and Medina Walking Tour is a private guided walk through Fès el-Bali, the old walled medina of Fes in Morocco's Fès-Meknès region. The listing does not name a specific operator or state how long it has been running, so neither is given here. The tour starts with pickup from a riad or hotel inside the medina, with the exact meeting point confirmed at booking; Bab Boujloud, the blue gate at the western edge of Fès el-Bali, serves as the reference point. From there the guide leads a route on foot through the medina's lanes, which are too narrow for vehicles. The walk includes the Chouara Tanneries, the centuries-old leather dyeing yards, and Place Seffarine, the square of the coppersmiths. Food is the main focus. The itinerary lists more than 15 tastings across 8 to 9 stops, a pace of roughly one small tasting every 15 to 20 minutes. Tastings centre on Fassi street food and traditional snacks, and the stops mix savoury items with sweet pastries and mint tea. Because the portions are small and add up, the tour works as a full meal rather than a snack. The price is MAD 700 per person (about $75) and the tour is private, with a minimum of two people. The price includes all tastings, bottled water and taxes. Transport beyond the walking route is not part of the package, and personal purchases such as leather goods or souvenirs in the souks are extra. Duration is given as 3 to 5 hours depending on pace and how long visitors linger at each stop. As a private tour, group size is limited to the party that booked, and the language of the guide should be confirmed when booking. Dietary needs such as vegetarian or allergy restrictions are not described in the listing, so visitors with restrictions should raise them before the tour so that stops can be adjusted. The tour runs year-round.
