I booked the day trip to Ifrane and the Cedar Forest, and it was one of the best escapes from the busy streets of Fes. Ifrane felt completely different from the rest of Morocco clean, quiet, and with such charming European-style houses. The highlight for me was walking through the Cedar Forest and seeing the monkeys up close. Our guide was friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable about the region. The whole day felt perfectly balanced between sightseeing, relaxation, and nature. I recommend this trip to anyone looking for a peaceful adventure away from the city.
This day trip to Ifrane and the Cedar Forest was a wonderful experience. I never expected to find such a calm and European-like town in Morocco, but Ifrane truly lives up to its nickname of “Little Switzerland.” The cedar trees were majestic, and meeting the monkeys was so much fun. Our driver made the ride comfortable and safe, with plenty of photo stops along the way. Lunch was delicious, and the fresh mountain air was exactly what I needed. It’s a trip that mixes relaxation, fun, and amazing scenery. I highly recommend this day trip to everyone.
