The cultural and spiritual capital of Morocco, located in the northern region on the edge of the Middle Atlas, will be Morocco’s flagship destination in 2017. It won’t reach the number of travelers passing through Marrakech airport, but it will see the strongest growth in terms of travelers gained. Indeed, thanks to the opening of direct flights from European capital airports, the city of Fes is set to become an essential destination during a stay in Morocco.
Direct flights to Fes
Several European capitals have agreed to open flights to Fes, including the cities of Berlin, Rome, Madrid and of course Paris. All these cities will have a direct flight starting from June 2017 with about 12 weekly rotations in order to offer short stays in the medina of Fes.
A great idea, this Moroccan and Fassi initiative led by ONMT, the Moroccan national transport office. Marrakech, Casablanca, Agadir and many others had always been favored in the development of tourism and the opening of airlines.
Two important things to remember: Europe has confidence in Morocco in terms of security, because after Toulouse, Bordeaux, Nantes, Montpellier, it is now European capitals that are opening their airports. One can indirectly recognize the quality of the work of the Moroccan teams in the security of the territory, particularly for people transiting through the Kingdom’s airports.
A return to authenticity: Riad Fes
A return to tradition, to the richness of Moroccan culture, to this gastronomy recognized throughout the world. Demand has strongly increased in recent years to sleep in a riad, to discover the real life and true culture of Moroccans. This is how Fes naturally stands out as the authentic, preserved city, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. An exceptional heritage preserved for years, where riad fes and renovated guesthouses offer nights within their splendid architecture.
Riad Jamai has become a must for staying in a riad in the medina
Without a doubt, you will find the details of Riad Jamai, which since the late 2000s has become a reference for tourists wishing to stay in riad Fes. Riad Jamai offers affordable rates and allows all visitors to Fes to stay a night in a traditional Moroccan riad or to spend a family stay there.
