A really fun way to go is to buy a picnic meal at the épicerie, as my friends and I ended up with a feast for under 6 Euros. |

Nightlife isn't the point of Morocco, and certainly not Fes. There is a curfew of 10pm, so nightlife is really just a late dinner, but this means that you can get up early and strike out anew into the city after the sun comes up. |

Ancient Medina: beautiful, winding streets remind of a time gone by as the handiwork of the cooperatives and the tannery inspire awe to all visitors. A guide of the Medina is necessary, as the winding streets could turn from a beautiful labyrinth into an endless maze with a wrong turn. |

Talk to the staff at the hostel about a tour of the desert - a great value which took my two friends and I through the Atlas Mountains, the Sahara Desert, Merzouga, Ouarzazate, and Ait Benhaddou on the way to Marrakech. It was an incredible experience and definitely worth the money! |

The medina (old city). Get Abdulla to set you up with an official guide, it's too easy to get lost and there are fake guides around. We loved it. |

There's a nice little park in the new town near the mosque that does a good hot chocolate in a tranquil surrounding. |

The Medina, but try to skip the touristy bits. |

Close to the hostel, you can eat "Haril" (vegetable soup) with bread for 0.4 $/€. It digests very well. The more heavy meals, can best be eaten at noon. Meals like "Tajin" or "Couscous". Always ask for the biggest Tajin, because the price does not depend on the size. Price is 6 $/€ or maximum 12 $/€ in a hotel. Also interesting: spend 3 days close to the Sahara. 1 day to travel, 1 day to ride Camel and 1 day to visit a small desert-village. Just ask Ahmed. Price around 150 €/$. Pricey, but it was worth the money (and you can always try to negociate, especially when you are more than 2). |
