Walking
From the center of Fes el Bali, navigate through the narrow streets towards the Bab Boujloud (Blue Gate). From the gate, head north on Rue Talaa Kebira until you reach Place Boujloud, a central square. Continue straight until you reach the end of the street. At the intersection, turn right onto Rue Talaa Sghira. Follow this road until you see a sign for the Marinid Tombs. The walk will take approximately 30-40 minutes, depending on your pace.
Taxi
If you prefer not to walk, you can take a petit taxi from anywhere in Fes el Bali. Make sure to tell the driver 'Marinid Tombs' or show them the address '329C+W6W, Fes.' The taxi ride should cost around 20-30 MAD (Moroccan Dirham) and will take about 10-15 minutes, depending on traffic. Ensure the taxi uses the meter or agree on a price before starting your journey.
Local Guide
For a more informative experience, consider hiring a local guide who can lead you to the Marinid Tombs. Many guides are available around the Bab Boujloud area. Prices vary but expect to pay around 100-200 MAD for a guided tour.
