The most amazing experience in all of Fez

Published on May, 2024

We booked a pottery workshop experience in Fez amd we could not have imagined we would have an incredible experience. As soon as I booked the tour, I received communications from Mourad and he arranged such an amazing tour of the city of fez including the Medina. Anas took us to all the major highlights of the city amd helped us bargain on some specialty items. He was beyond polite, informative and took us to the best lunch we've had since coming to Morocco. Once we were done with the tour, we went to the pottery workshop with is a cooperative they have with the government. They retain orphans and teach them such artistic skills that are authentic to Moroccon culture so the art is not lost. There, Mourad showed us around explaining I'm great detail how the pottery and ceramics are made. We were able to create our own pottery and ceramics. I also bought a one of a kind ceramic teaset from there and they were so kind as to ship it for me so I wouldn't have to travel with delicate pieces of art. If you do nothing else in Fez, book this tour. I got more out of it than I anticipated!

Highly reccomended

Published on May, 2024

If you want to know Fez and Moroccan crafts through a different activity, this is a great opportunity. Very complete activity, Mourad is an excellent guide with unbeatable treatment. We loved both the explanation and the activity. We did our own mosaic and pieces of of pottery. I feel after that i can appretiate even more the art that surround every place of Fez. Highly recommended!

Amazing Full Day Tour and Pottery Workshop Experience

Published on May, 2024

During our visit to the Medina in Fez, we enjoyed a fantastic full-day tour inside and outside the bustling city, guided by a knowledgeable professional. Exploring the narrow streets and historic sites was a highlight of our trip. The pottery workshop was a unique and enriching experience. Mourad, our instructor, was incredibly patient and shared a wealth of information about pottery. We had the opportunity to create our own pieces— I made a vase and my girlfriend crafted a beautiful bowl. The hands-on painting process was especially fun and personal. Mourad's hospitality was outstanding, and we greatly appreciated the refreshing mint tea he offered. We can't recommend this experience enough for those looking to immerse themselves in Moroccan culture and craftsmanship.
