You enter Fes el-Bali through Bab Boujloud and the city immediately asserts itself — alleys narrow like a braid, tile chatter reflects the sun, and the air carries spices and the faint tang of tannery dyes.

Basic level of mobility for sustained walking over uneven surfaces for most of the day
Private tours often offer pickup—confirm your pickup point during booking; transport is by air‑conditioned vehicle per the listing.
You can paint or shape pieces during the workshop, but final firing may require time; the studio will advise on pickup or shipping options and any additional fees.
Some main entrances and wider streets are accessible, but many alleys have uneven cobbles and steps; the tour notes wheelchair access but mobility can be limited in parts of the old medina.
The itinerary lists visits to madrasas and monuments—confirm if specific admission fees are included when booking, as some sites may charge separately.
