After exploring the site and learning about its fascinating history, you’ll continue to the imperial city of Meknes. Here, you’ll visit highlights such as the grand Bab Mansour gate, the royal granaries of Heri es-Souani, and stroll through the medina and bustling local markets. There will be time to enjoy a traditional Moroccan lunch before heading back to Fes, arriving in the early evening with a day full of history, culture, and memorable views behind you.

Yes, one day is enough to see the main highlights of both Volubilis and Meknes. This day trip is designed to give you a rich cultural and historical experience without feeling rushed. You’ll have time to explore the Roman ruins, enjoy the scenery, and visit the key landmarks of Meknes comfortably.
