At the designated meeting time, we will gather at the main entrance of Lycée Moulay Idriss. Over the course of three hours, we will navigate the vibrant streets of this historic Moroccan city, taking in the ancient sites of the Medina in Fez.

Close to our starting point, we will encounter the renowned Bab Bou Jeloud Gate, often referred to as 'the Blue Gate'.

Our next stop will be the Funduq al-Najjariyyin, also known as the Nejjarine Museum of Wooden Arts & Crafts. We will admire its beautiful façade before heading to the Mausoleum of Mulay Idris II, dedicated to this significant Moroccan king from the early 9th century.

Finally, we will make our way to the Chouwara tannery, where we'll observe the myriad pits filled with natural dyes used for coloring leather sourced from lamb, ox, goat, and camel. This experience will surely be both unique and memorable!

By the end of approximately 2.5 to 3 hours, we will reach the R'cif Mosque square, one of the serenest spots in Fez.
