Understand

Fes driving you nuts? Nearby Meknes is a vibrant, modern city bustling with nightlife, restaurants and an impressive castle. Since it's relatively ignored by most tourists, it's also free of the usual hassles (touts, faux guides, etc) that plague the other tourist centres.

Get in

The main bus station is west of the medina, while CTM has its own, brand new station. El-Amir Abdelkader train station is the arrival point for all intercity trains.

Get around

Petit taxis abound, as well as an efficient and comprehensive, if cramped local bus service.

Ville Nouvellle

There are dozens of restaurants and snack bars lining the main road, Rue Antsirape offering the staples of harira, tagine, cous cous and of course rotisserie chicken. A few restaurants on Rue Ghana, just off Rue Antsirape, are popular with travellers and offer Dh 40 set menus.

Hostels

For those on a budget, the HI-affiliated and very friendly youth hostel (dorms from Dh 40, midnight curfew) is wedged between the medina and ville nouvelle, just two doors down from the much swankier and well known Hotel Transatlantique.

Camping

This is the choice if you're feeling insane. The campsite itself is quite nice. It even has grass! The problem is it is located several miles away from the city centre, on the other side of the palace. For two people, with one tent, it cost 44 dh a night (Summer 2004 price)

The sensible thing to do is to stay in the town centre, at the hostel, so you can avoid the long walk to and from the campsite. On the other hand it is sometimes a relief to escape to the quiet campsite after the busy town.
