Which one for whom?

Why Fes?

Fes is especially perfect for group trips in the spring and autumn months. Typically, a stay of 7 days is recommended. It is important to determine a suitable time for group travel.

Fes is a country filled with historical and cultural riches, offering a unique experience for travelers. It is generally recommended to visit in the spring and autumn months. There are many places and activities to explore over a 7-day period. During this time, it is important to decide which cities to visit as a group.

Why Japan?

Tokyo is pace. Kyoto is a breath. You can have both. A JR Pass is not required on every route.

Japan tires you less than you expect. What tires you is packing every neighborhood into the same day. In Tokyo, one neighborhood is a day. In Kyoto, a temple path walked before the crowd arrives is a different city.
