Fes and Marrakech City Tours
The UNESCO World Heritage List includes the ancient cities of Fes and Marrakech, which are abundant in historical monuments showcasing Morocco’s prosperous history. To truly experience these cities, it is essential to explore every corner of the Medina, where a rich history is preserved.
This can be achieved with the assistance of a knowledgeable local tour guide. Saharan Tours team is committed to leveraging its extensive experience to organize daily guided tours led by certified guides. These tours aim to allow tourists to explore and learn about the historical and heritage sites nestled within the narrow alleys of the Medina while receiving answers to all their inquiries.
Sightseeing Marrakech Tour
The historic city of Marrakech is one of the oldest cities in North Africa, built in the 11th century AD by the Almohads, who made it the capital of their state. The old city includes many historical monuments, walls, and gates. Your daily walking tour begins by meeting your private guide at your residence to determine your tour route.
Your tour includes a visit to the most important historical monuments spread throughout the city, such as the Koutoubia Mosque, Ben Saleh Mosque, El Badi Palace, Bahia Palace, Saadian Tombs, and Jemaa el Fna Square, as well as a stroll through the alleys of the Medina, crowded with handicrafts to get to know the creativity of the artisans.
Sightseeing Fes Tour
Fes is considered the oldest imperial city in Morocco and the second largest city after Casablanca. It was founded in 789 AD by Idris II. The city is divided into three sections: Fes el-Bali, the old city built in the 8th century AD; Fes el-Jedid, built in the 13th century AD; and the modern city built during the French colonial period.
Fes el-Bali, or Medina, is considered the most important part of the city of Fes. It is the oldest and contains the most important historical and cultural monuments.
After breakfast, you will meet your private guide at your place of residence to begin your walking tour. You will explore the city’s narrow alleys, which are classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, and learn about the most important historical monuments: the Chaouara Tannery, the Al-Qarawiyyin Madrasa, the Bou Inania Madrasa, the Attarine Madrasa, the Mellah, and Bab Boujloud (the Blue Door).

We had an amazing experience with Saharan Tours company and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Morocco. Our itinerary was perfectly balanced. Allowing us to explore Morocco's rich culture, stunning landscapes, and vibrant cities. Highlights included wandering the colorful streets of chefchaouin, exploring the history of medinas of Fes and Marrakech. And enjoying the magical night under the stars in the Sahara desert.
Our driver/ guide Said was fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing Morocco's history and traditions. The accommodations were comfortable and authentic. And the transportation was smooth and reliable.What I liked the most were the 2 nights I spent in the Sahara Desert, it's a completely different world, we had a full day in the desert and also had the chance to experience ATVs riding.
If you're looking for a well organized memorable Moroccan adventure. Saharan Tours is an excellent choice. 5/5 Stars exceptional service and authentic experience.
We had wonderful trip to Morocco. Thanks to Said and Ibrahim with Saharan Tours.
Said accommodate all our requests and built a great itinerary for us. Including Riads, hotels, desert camp for our stay. Our transportation from destination to destination, and guided tours in each place.
Ibrahim drove us everywhere during 10 day trip, tirelessly helping us with everything. We are ever so grateful to him for his help. Especially because he had to be away from his family during the month of Ramadan.
The guides that company had for us were great (Fes and Marrakech medinas) Many many thanks and we recommend Saharan Tours to everyone thinking of a trip to Morocco.
My friend and I chose a private driver for 2 day/ 1 night in the Sahara desert from Marrakech. Our driver, Said, was so great. He was very knowledgeable, professional and kind.
This was during Ramadan so our trip may have been different otherwise. Not that we'd know as it was our first time in Morocco. Somethings were closed for Ramadan but I think also it was nice because there were less people around. We still got to see all sites and eat at great food stops. Said, our driver even bought us a box of dates from a village he went to school in. Very thoughtful. We felt safe with him and the car was clean and comfortable.
And yes. The drive was long ( took us 10 hrs each way) but you see so many things and make a few stops ( whatever you want!). It was easy and beautiful and I would recommend it to anyone. Once at the tent, if you don't take the camels to the spot then you get to take the 4×4 car and ride over the dunes. That is what we did and it was so fun. The camp was so cool and the views are what it's all about.
Personally. The one night tour was ideal ( and we were short on time ). This was the perfect trip with a trustworthy company. Thanks Said!!!!!
Our long overdue holiday to Morocco was amazing. From the first contact with Said to a 10 day trip with Youssef.
All communication/ Emails to Said were replied to quickly and I understood exactly what we were getting. I never felt like anything was a problem or a hassle.
Our driver Youssef was the best. We couldn't have asked for a better person to share our experience with and we will always remember him and feel we have a connection to Morocco through him. His local knowledge and general warmth made our long days together fun. Our 10 day trip from Casablanca to Casablanca and everywhere in between captured so many different experiences. And a special highlight was the New Year's event in the Sahara desert.
I can't recommend Saharan Tours company enough. I just hope one day we can go back with all the family for some more.
