Things to Do in Central Morocco: Local Guide
Central Morocco is the country's spiritual and cultural heartland — the imperial cities of Fès and Meknès anchor a region that also encompasses the cedar forests of the Middle Atlas, Berber mountain villages on the way to Imilchil, and the dramatic Todra and Dadès gorges on the road south to the Sahara.

Local tip: Fès el-Bali, the world's largest car-free urban area, is genuinely confusing without local knowledge — a 2-3 hour guided medina tour on arrival will orient you, identify the key workshops and tanneries, and save hours of aimless wandering in the 9,000-alley labyrinth.
