We took the flight in Madrid at 21:50 with the Royal Air Maroc and we arrive in Casablanca at 21:25 (local hour).
Then the guide was waiting for us in a 4x4 car to take us to Fez, where we sleep in a very good riad: http://www.darziryab.com/fr/index.html

The next day, we could see Fez: incredible!! It is like living in the V century. No cars, no motorbikes, only people, donkeys and horses. Lots of beautiful mosques and coranic schools.
