Stayed at Batha - Fez, Morocco.

Fes was our final destination after 3 weeks in Morocco so we got by on our own and in fact didn't visit enormously as we felt we'd seen most things elsewhere. I would recommend Volubilis, the Romain ruins, about 50 kilometres away as a day trip.

I was on a family visit so I didn't go around much. I visited the Morrocan capital Rabat which has a lot of very nice seaside restaurants and hotels.
Aeen Diab is a suburb of Casablanca. A walk on the corniche there is very nice especially at sunset.

Because of the very good location of the hotel, it is possible to visit the medina and all the major sites of interest on foot. It It is a good idea to have a half day guided tour on your first day to get an overall idea and then explore on your own. However, make sure you book on of the professional guides and do make it clear that you want to do your shopping on your own and not during the tour. Otherwise these guides will take you to plenty of shops during a tour as they all get commission.
We would definitely recommend a 3 night stay - there is just so much to see and explore. As a city, we prefered Meknes to Fez, Meknes felt more manageable and friendlier than its bigger neighbour. We highly recommend a visit to the Roman site of Volubilis and to Moulay Idress, the holy city. By chance we came across a very good English speaking guide Mohammed with lots of history and local knowledge which made our visit to Moulay Idress special.
Driving in a hired car is quite an experience - we definitely recommend to avoid driving after dark as it was very dangerous and much more difficult, overtaking of slower vehicles in particular gets very tricky.

Marrakesh is fantastic and different. You will know it all by going to where the crowd converges every evening: the main square known as "Jamaa Elfnaa". If you are like me, you can't help but fall in love with this city and its people.
