This Fes Workshop Tour offers an authentic journey into Morocco’s living craftsmanship, far beyond the usual sightseeing experience. Instead of simply visiting monuments, travelers step inside real artisan workshops to witness centuries-old techniques passed from master to apprentice — from hand-painting zellige tiles to shaping copper trays in Seffarine Square. Every stop reveals a different craft that defines Fes: leather tanning, pottery, weaving, wood carving, and metalwork. Guided by locals who are deeply connected to the medina’s creative soul, participants not only observe but engage with artisans, gaining a rare behind-the-scenes look at Morocco’s artistic heritage. Immersive, sensory, and culturally rich, this tour transforms a day in Fes into a living museum experience — where tradition, art, and human skill come together in every color, texture, and sound.
Your Driver will pick you from your accommodation in Fes
Begin your journey through the maze-like medina of Fes, Morocco’s spiritual and artistic heart. Your local expert will guide you through its UNESCO-listed alleys, where the sounds of craftsmen’s hammers, looms, and tools fill the air.
Visit the world-famous Chouara Tannery, where traditional leather-dyeing techniques have been preserved for over a thousand years. From a panoramic terrace, observe artisans soaking, softening, and coloring hides in vibrant natural pigments — a mesmerizing display of skill and heritage.
Discover Morocco’s rich woodworking traditions inside this beautifully restored caravanserai. See finely carved doors, instruments, and antique tools that showcase the mastery of Fassi wood artisans.
Ride or walk to the pottery quarter outside the medina, where artisans craft the city’s famous zellige mosaics, ceramic tiles, and hand-painted pottery. Watch each step of the process — molding, firing, and decorating — before browsing a dazzling collection of finished pieces.
Visit one of the oldest metalworking areas in the medina. Hear the rhythmic sounds of copper and brass being hammered into teapots, trays, and lanterns — each piece created entirely by hand.
