Trip to Volubilis and Meknes

We really enjoyed the experience, and also the trip with our friend BAHJA, very good person. If someone is near to Fes, I really recommend it

Volubris is definitely worth it...

This tour was mostly just transportation, but given that's what we needed this was exceptional. We spent time at Volubris (where we paid $20 USD [200 dirhams] for a local guide, and that was totally worth it), Meknes, and a side adventure to Moulay Idriss, which was incredible. We spent time mostly walking around the cities without much intent, but that was also what we were looking to do which was awesome. The main purpose of our booking this tour was to get transit for a large group of people (six people) without having to deal with the assortment of public transit. This tour was great for that, and I would highly recommend it. Our driver was great. If you are a fan of ancient civilizations and ruins, Volubris shouldn't be missed. The impact of finding the ruins of a Roman city in Africa is simply incredible.

Fantastic tour of Meknes and Ifrane areas

We spent 2 entire days with Driss who drove us to visit Meknes and Ifrane areas. Driss was very kind, punctual and helpful. Considering we had limited time to visit Meknes and Ifrane we didn’t take any local guide for these trips but we should have! It would be much better to have details about the different cities history. We highly recommend Driss who has been amazing with us!

Good Driver, no guide provided

Driss was our driver an was great. He was friendly and a good driver. However, he is not a guide. We hired for an english speaker but communication was limited. Would use again, but feel the advertisement should be a bit clearer. We really enjoyed Volibulus but had to cut Meknes short as my wife fell ill.

Response from the operator: Words cannot express how much you mean to our company. thank you.

Great tour to Azrou and Ifrane

I went to Morocco with my family in early April 2019. Recently found the business card for this tour company which prompted me to write this late review. We had a lovely tour with our driver Driss Razyn. He was friendly and easy going with our spontaneous plans. He stopped the car at many stunning places so we could experience the beautiful countryside and took us to nice local restaurant for lunch. Overall a great day trip, one of our highlights of the whole holiday. Many Thanks to Driss and Nice Day Tours.

Response from the operator: thank you so much for your review

Volubilis and Meknes day trip from Fez: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Fez.

How much does Volubilis and Meknes day trip from Fez cost?

+

Prices start at $16 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 Volubilis and Meknes day trip from Fez take?

+

Plan for about 24 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 Volubilis and Meknes day trip from Fez worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 17 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Fez, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Volubilis and Meknes day trip from Fez?

+

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 Volubilis and Meknes day trip from Fez suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 24-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Volubilis and Meknes day trip from Fez?

+

Around 6 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 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Volubilis and Meknes day trip from Fez 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 Exclusive Fez Medina Walking Tour with Private Guide, Fes to Marrakech desert tour 3 days, Private Guided Walking Tour of Fes Medina with Local Expert. 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.
