Artisans & Workshops of Fez

Description

Fez is Morocco’s capital of traditional craftsmanship—this tour is designed to show you the process, not just the shops. Walk through artisan quarters where skills are passed down through generations: zellige tilework, wood carving, brass and copper, weaving, embroidery, and (optionally) leather. Your guide explains techniques, tools, and symbolism, and helps you distinguish authentic handmade work from mass-produced items. You’ll have time to observe artisans at work and ask questions, with a respectful approach that prioritizes real workshops over sales stops.
