The driver, Reda, picked us up in Fes, and we had an excellent experience, nice talk and great driving. We went to the roman ruins, visited the sacred city of Moulay Idriss (where he had some delightful sweets) and then we went to the imperial city of Meknes where the driver brought us to a restaurant that served typical Moroccan food. Afterwards we had some time to discover Meknes and finally we went back to Fes. The driver always gave us as much time as we wanted at each spot, and he even stopped at different places, so we could take pictures along the route.

We went on a 1-day road trip starting from Fès. We asked him to drive us up to the Merenid Tombs (in Fès) before heading out to Volubilis. After that, we went to Moulay Idriss Zerhoune. We had lunch in Moulay Idriss and found our driver waiting for us at the cafe we happened to select. After we finished eating, we took a selfie with him. At that point, we decided to head back to Fès instead of going on to Meknes. Our driver was very nice and chatted with us to the extent we wanted to. He had a Mitsubishi SUV stocked with plenty of water. His music selection ranged from 80s Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers to 90s rap. We enjoyed the music. It wasn’t too loud. He drove responsibly and took us through a scenic route on the way back.

We did this organized by our Airbnb host which included a short stop at Moulay Idriss (which is close to Volubilis at the top of the mountain, see photo). Reda was our personal driver and he was fantastic. He stopped at various vista points, and gave us all the time we needed at Volubilis. Reda picked a lunch restaurant for us at Meknes which worked out fine. We then had some more time to look around, and never felt rushed or against a deadline set by the driver. Would definitely recommend as a day trip from Fes. And it was very good value :) Timo & Di.

This Saturday, November 16, Mustapha allowed us to make a nice discovery. We had a pleasant day thanks to his professionalism, availability and kindness in a beautiful vehicle. We wish him health (he will understand this allusion). :-)

I recommend the 1 day tour to Meknes and Volubilis from Fez. I thank the guide Rachid for his good communication and his interest in sharing the riches of Morocco with us.

Nous garderons un excellent souvenir de notre séjour à Fès et de ses alentours, notamment grâce à notre chauffeur Abdul. Il a été d'un très grand professionnalisme, patient, toujours à l'écoute et serviable. Il a su nous faire découvrir la ville et à partager les richesses de son pays. Une belle expérience humaine et culturelle. Nous recommandons cette compagnie touristique et n'hésitez pas à demander les services d'Abdul pour vous accompagner dans vos excursions. Nous avons eu l'occasion de visiter le site de Volubilis, Meknès, Moulay Yaâcoub et le moyen Atlas avec la découverte d'Ifrane et son parc national. Nous tenons encore à remercier Abdul pour ces 4 jours inoubliables et à qui nous donnons 10 étoiles 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
