Moulay Idriss - Famous for its cylindrical minaret Moulay Idriss, Moulay Driss Zerhoun or simply Zerhoun (Arabic: مولاي إدريس زرهون) is a town in the Fès-Meknès region of northern Morocco, spread over two hills at the base of Mount Zerhoun.[2] It is famous for being the site of the tomb of Idris I, the first major Islamic ruler of Morocco, after whom the town is named. It is located near Meknes and overlooks the ruins of Volubilis a few kilometers away. If you’re exploring the northern area of Morocco this is a fascinating place to visit

Great! I would repeat!!! - It was a great day. We really enjoyed visiting Volubilis and the guide, who spoke Spanish, which was very comfortable, was very friendly throughout. Very comfortable being able to go with few people and have a vehicle at our disposal, as it allows you to care

Beautiful excursion with an excellent guide - A very nice experience and excursion. We were with a very friendly small group and a really top guide/driver (Thanks to Mohamed!). The excursion not only allows you to discover some remarkable sights, but also to discover the beautiful landscapes around. Thanks again to Tarboosh Travel for this experience.

Good value for several stops - This is a great value to see 3 places in one day, with a stunning landscape of olive groves and sheep herds while you drive. There are no tour guides so you'll have to hire those when you arrive, but I saw no reason to. We started in Volubilis and had a good 1.5 hours there. We didn't actually stop in Moulay Idriss - we were given a stop for a gorgeous panoramic view, but then we drove around and left town. Meknes was largely a local flea market and a museum. Good value, nice daytrip.
