Fes

This private day trip from Fez combines three very different faces of Morocco. First, Volubilis, the best-preserved Roman city in North Africa and a UNESCO site, where you walk among columns, a triumphal arch and floor mosaics still in place after almost 2,000 years. Next, Moulay Idriss Zerhoun, the white town on two hills where the first Moroccan dynasty was founded, with a viewpoint over its rooftops. In the afternoon you discover Meknes, the imperial city of Sultan Moulay Ismail: the monumental Bab Mansour gate, El Hedim square, the vast royal granaries and stables, and the mausoleum of the sultan.
