Fès in November

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.
