  • This was the perfect day trip from Fes! Volubilis was breathtaking, especially the ancient Roman mosaics. I never expected to find such a place in Morocco. Meknes was full of charm too — the Bab Mansour gate and Moulay Ismail’s mausoleum were very impressive. The guide was great, and the lunch was delicious. Highly recommend!
