Awesome window into the world of Marrakech mosaics - We loved this mosaic experience! The tour of the clayworks we started with was immediately fascinating. The artisan that taught us was welcoming and incredibly skilled. We loved hand cutting our own mosaic tiles.
Special shout out to our driver/translator Hakim! He was so helpful and friendly, and he made our experience twice as fun. Thank you!

Best local experience! - What a wonderful experience. Essadik is really an artist who makes the most beautiful mosaic. Mouad made the day completely enjoyable. The transfer from Marrakech was well arranged. You will arrive at a beautiful workshop where you will learn all about the different steps of Mosaik. So you can see how the stones are made and baked. Then it's time to get started yourself. From chopping the stones to assembling the mosaic piece. Essadik and Mouad, thank you for this great experience.

Best experience in Marrakech - Easily one of the best activities we did Marrakech! Leaning about the mosaics and the techniques to make them was incredible. Massive respect to the craftsman who make these works of art! Mouad and the master were very informative and treated us like family. Would highly recommend this activity to anyone looking for a unique and genuine Moroccan experience!

Amazing experience - you’ll be so happy you did this! - We had a fantastic time doing the workshop. Learnt about how the tiles are made through the various steps from clay, had a go at cutting them into shapes (whilst giving a bit of a workout to our wrists!) and then made our own tile to take away with us. It’s really well organised and structured, so that you’re helped along with way and given a good understanding of the process. The guide is great, and the man who ran the workshop was wonderful. Would really recommend you to do this as it’s quite a unique activity, and you get to take a bit of Morocco home with you! We booked on a whim for the same day, and are so happy we did!

Absolutely recommend 100% - This workshop was beyond our expectations. We were shown the whole process of making tiles and the finished artwork with a great translation from our guide. We were also able to make a coaster and try some of the processes involved. The pick up and drop off were very friendly, efficient and professional. We had a great afternoon, thank you.
