Fès in February
Good time to visit
February keeps the winter calm while offering slightly warmer days for walking tours. The frequent rain can disrupt outdoor plans, but it also means fewer tourists and better prices across the board.
Weather
February warms up slightly but remains pleasantly cool during the day. Rain becomes more frequent, creating muddy conditions in the medina's narrow alleys. The air stays crisp and dry between showers.

All Months
March through May gives you perfect weather and blooming orange trees. October and November work too – warm days, cool nights, fewer crowds. Summer is brutal. We're talking 40°C heat trapped in stone corridors with no air conditioning. Winter brings rain and surprising cold. The medina's stone streets become slippery. Ramadan changes the rhythm completely – shops close during the day, but evenings come alive. Book accommodations early for the World Sacred Music Festival in June if you can handle the heat. Spring remains your best bet for comfortable exploring.
