    The private excursion from Fes to Meknes and Volubilis kicks off with an 8:00 AM pickup at your riad, hotel, or a pre-arranged meeting point in the city. The journey initially heads to the ancient Roman outpost of Volubilis, a designated UNESCO site celebrated for its remarkably preserved ruins, intricate mosaic floors, and the iconic Triumphal Arch of Caracalla.
