- Bou Inania Madrasa - The most architecturally refined of Fez’s theological colleges was built by the Merinid sultan Bou Inan between 1351 and 1357. Beyond the massive brass entrance doors, its interior courtyard is a masterpiece of elaborate zellige tilework, carved plaster and beautiful cedar lattice screens. Smaller courts off either side functioned as classrooms, and students lived upstairs.

Fez Day Trip primarily focuses on exploring and uncovering the secrets of Fès el-Bali (Old Fez) medina. Your journey will include tours to Medrassa Bou Inania, Nejjarine Fountain, Attarine Square, and Karaouine Mosque (only exterior). The adventure begins at Bab Boujlloud Gate.
The path will lead you through the souk of instrument makers before reaching the Mzara of former ruler Moulay Idriss, located where the town’s construction decision was made. From there, you’ll proceed to En-Nejjarine Square and the souk of cabinet makers. The square boasts the beautifully carved Foundouk housing the Museum of Wooden Arts and Crafts. Besides, witness the most frequented and respected site in Fès: The Moulay Idriss Zaouïa. The expedition carries on to Es-Seffarine Square, the coppersmith square, culminating at the tanners’ quarter, situated right before the Andalusian quarter that houses its mosque and the Es-Sahrij Medersa.
