Fes's most-booked day trip
Chefchaouen's blue-washed lanes are the single most-booked day trip from Fes. A shared minivan covers the roughly 3.5-hour drive each way through the green hills of the Rif Mountains, with a full afternoon to wander the town's photogenic streets.
A guided walk covers the winding blue alleyways, the Kasbah Museum, and the main square (Plaza Uta el-Hammam), followed by free time for rooftop cafés and local weaving workshops.

Chefchaouen Questions
How much free time is there in Chefchaouen?
A full afternoon after the guided walk — usually 3–4 hours to explore, shop, and photograph the blue streets at your own pace.
Is this the same as the Chefchaouen leg on the multi-day tours?
It's the same destination, but as a single day trip you don't get an overnight stay. See our 4-Day Fes, Chefchaouen & Volubilis Tour for two full nights there instead.
What should I wear?
Modest, comfortable clothing and good walking shoes — the medina is built on a hillside with plenty of steps and slopes.
