What Needs Planning

  • December arrives quickly after November, and 9.4°C nights in Meknes can make late medina walks feel short after sunset.
  • Meknes has only 4.8 rainy days on average, but that still means a wet spell can interrupt open-air time at Bab Mansour.
  • Musée Dar Jamaï is useful as a backup, because November is not a month for long unbroken outdoor days.

How The Month Feels

Meknes in November feels settled around the medina, with Bab Mansour catching strong daylight and the alleys staying active without October’s warmer edge. By evening, the city turns cooler fast, and the route toward the Mausolée de Moulay Ismaïl feels quieter.

What To Lock In Early

Book Bab Mansour-area lodging if you want to walk to Bab Mansour and the Mausolée de Moulay Ismaïl without relying on taxis. Leave the exact museum stop open until you see the sky, then choose Musée Dar Jamaï if one of November’s 4.8 rainy days arrives.

How to do it

A few things worth planning ahead

01

Plan cue

Book a daytime visit to Mausolée de Moulay Ismaïl early in the month, when the 21.9°C afternoons are best for combining it with Bab Mansour.

02

Plan cue

Reserve one central stay that lets you reach Bab Mansour and the mausoleum on foot, so you can avoid planning around short November evenings.

03

Plan cue

Add Musée Dar Jamaï to the same day as Bab , since November’s cooler nights make a museum stop a practical part of the route.

Practical trip tips

Pack a layer for the 9.4°C nights, because Meknes in November cools down sharply after dark even when the day reaches 21.9°C.
Use the 9.1 daily sunshine hours for late-morning visits to Bab Mansour , when the stonework reads best in natural light.
If rain does fall during one of the 4.8 wet days, shift to Musée Dar Jamaï rather than trying to stretch an outdoor loop.
