Interesting way to shop while learning about the city
This was an absolutely wonderful tour, especially for the price. Mohammed couldn’t have been a better guide. We only had a little over a day to spend in Fez/s and he helped us make the most of it. He picked us up at our riad and really customize the tour to fit what we wanted. I would say out of the cities we had gone to that Fez/s seemed to be best for shopping. Since we had a little time, we wanted to shop, but I also wanted to learn about the city. Mohammed was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the city and it was great to learn about all of that. Very interesting. He also tailored the experience to fit our needs as far as where we wanted to shop and what types of goods. He was also very useful to have an around because he would tell us if we were getting a good deal or not, and even negotiated on our behalf. He was such a nice, courteous, and respectful man, and we really enjoyed your day. I would definitely recommend this tour because it was a cool way to experience the city and get shopping done at the same time; especially if you have a short amount of time in the city. Five stars. I would even take this tour a second time if I were to ever go back to Fez/s even though I have already taken it because of the help he provided with negotiations.
Response from the operator: Dear Kaitlin, Thank you for this beautiful and detailed review! I’m so happy you enjoyed learning the history while shopping - that’s exactly how I love to show Fes. I’m glad I could help you get the best deals and make the most of your short stay. You were wonderful guests. You are always welcome back for a second tour! Warmly, Mohammed

Le maire de Fès!
Mohammed was the absolute best tour guide I could have ever asked for. I called him the “Mayor of Fes” He went above and beyond by introducing me to welcoming locals, making me feel right at home. He effortlessly navigated the winding labyrinth of the Fes medina while sharing his deep knowledge of the history of the city. Most importantly, he perfectly oriented me on day one, giving me the ultimate confidence to safely and successfully explore the rest of the city on my own for the subsequent days. He is an incredible guide and a wonderful person. My favorite part was just connecting with him personally and cross-culturally. He possess the best characteristics that you want in a guide. He is knowledgeable, honest, fair, and puts you at ease immediately. I truly cannot recommend him highly enough!
Response from the operator: Dear Nola, Thank you so much for your wonderful words! I am truly honored by the title « Mayor of Fes » haha! It was a real pleasure showing you my city. I am so happy you felt at home and confident to explore on your own. You are always welcome in Fes, your second home. Warmly, Mohammed

Response from the operator: Thank you Zoe and Addie for your wonderful review! It was a pleasure to guide you through the private Medina tour. Delighted to hear you enjoyed it and our second day together. You’re welcome anytime!

Excellent private guide in Fes
Mohammed is a wonderful guide! He speaks multiple languages. He led us through the maze of alleys in the Medina giving us a far more comprehensive experience than we ever could have had on our own. He also took us to his trusted artisans who displayed their skills for us. We believe the vendors he took us to were honest and reputable with good prices. He also took us to the palace, the Middle City, Jewish Quarter and fortress which we highly recommend. We give Mohammed our highest recommendation.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I’m glad you enjoyed the tour through the Medina maze, the trusted artisans, and also the Palace, Mellah and fortress. It was a pleasure guiding you! - Mohammed

Why this scores 88
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Fes Medina tour with Official Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Fez.
How much does Private Fes Medina tour with Official Guide cost?
+
Prices start at $34 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Fez usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Fes Medina tour with Official Guide take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Fez is not rushed.
Is Private Fes Medina tour with Official Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 272 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Fez, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Fes Medina tour with Official Guide?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Fes Medina tour with Official Guide suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Fes Medina tour with Official Guide?
+
Around 95 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Fez can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Fez and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Fes Medina tour with Official Guide start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Fez within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Fez?
+
On Outty we rank every Fez experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Fes to Marrakech: Merzouga & Ait Ben Haddou, 3 Days 2 Nights, Fes to Marrakech desert tour 3 days, 2Days groupe Tour Fes To Fes Or Marrakech Via Sahara Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Fez?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Fez?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

+
Included: Local guide; and Pick-up from your Riad/hotel. Not included: Entrances fees to monuments. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+

What languages is Private Fes Medina tour with Official Guide offered in?
+
