Découvrez la poterie et le zellige mosaïque lors d'une visite d'usine à Fès





Description
Je vous invite à vous joindre à moi dans l'une des plus belles coopératives de Fès, réputée pour ses poteries exquises et son travail complexe de mosaïque. Alors que vous entrez dans ce monde artistique, je vais vous guider à travers tout le processus de fabrication de céramique et de Zellij (mosaïque), tous méticuleusement faits à la main. Vous aurez l'occasion de retrousser vos manches et de vous essayer à la traditionnelle roue de potier entièrement manuelle, une expérience qui vous connecte directement avec des siècles d'artisanat! Ensemble, nous explorerons chaque étape de la création, des débuts bruts au chef-d'œuvre final, policé. Enfin, je vous emmène dans notre galerie, où les cultures diverses se fondent harmonieusement dans des œuvres d’art uniques et époustouflantes qui reflètent vraiment l’âme de Fès.

This was a pretty cool tour. We were shown various steps in the creation of pottery and mosaics. I learned quite a bit. There were also lots of pottery and mosaics available to purchase at the end. The exerience was pretty inexpensive, and worth it.
We did pottery and mosaic 3 hours experience. Wonderful!!! They explain us how they do and then we made our one mosaic tiles, we decorate a tajine and use the pottery wheel. We spend lovely time with them. Special thanks to Abdul and his brother! We will have as souvenirs our handmade piece of artisan!
Very easy communication with Abdou, driver met us without issue, and they were able to accommodate a change in our itinerary on the day of the tour. The tour itself was fascinating, and the transport from our riad and back was painless. Short tour but well worth the money, would recommend to anyone traveling to Fes with an interest in the traditional pottery and mosaic tile. Handmade pottery like this is truly a lost art!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're glad everything went smoothly and that you enjoyed discovering the beauty of traditional craftsmanship. It was a pleasure hosting you, and you're always welcome back in Fes!
This tour is so fascinating and will inform your whole trip in Morocco. We loved learning about the making, painting, mosaic and tiling techniques from the start of the process to the finish. Abdou was an excellent communicator in English and happily answered all our questions. This is a must-do in Fez and very good value.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted that you found the tour fascinating and insightful. I'm very happy to hear your kind words. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again in Fes!
Very interesting visit. The entire process of making, cooking pottery and cutting and assembling for the mosaic is visualized. Artisans are really artists. It's beautiful. I recommend this tour with our guide who was great.
Merci beaucoup pour votre avis ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié la visite et le travail exceptionnel des artisans. Votre recommandation nous touche beaucoup. Au plaisir de vous revoir à Fès !
The visit to the ceramic factory in Fez was an authentic and very satisfying experience. Amed (our guide) spoke perfect Italian and was very kind, helpful and precise in descriptions. It allowed us not only to try our hand at making a vase but also to paint works already made by the factory's artisans. The thing I appreciated the most was painting with the artists as they made their works: it was like a journey back in time, through the culture and traditions of the Moroccan people. The shop is also very nice and, unlike the other shops around the Medina, you do not feel "forced" to buy their products! Very positive experience and absolutely recommended if you are visiting the city of Fez.
Absolutely brilliant! My husband wanted to see how the classic Moroccan mosaics were made so I googled and booked this tour - and it really exceeded our expectations. Abdou communicated with us in advance, making sure we knew exactly where to meet our (lovely) taxi driver. It was a short drive to the factory and Abdou was waiting for us outside. His English is incredible so we enjoyed a really detailled explanation of all the aspects of this Art co-operative. We were able to meet and watch all the different artisans in action. The story of their work, and the talent of these artisans is incredible. There are excellent toilet facilities and a place to buy tea or coffee. There is a show room on-site with a huge variety of products - some incredibly stunning and unique. The work is pricey but there is no pressure to buy - I dare you to resist tho ;)
Thank you so much, dear Donna, for your wonderful feedback! You and Mr. Nick are such kindhearted people, and it was truly a pleasure to meet you. I deeply appreciate your visit and support, and I sincerely hope to see you again in the future!
The experience was very pleasant and interesting from start to finish. Following our TripAdvisor booking, we contacted the organizer on Whatsapp to arrange a visit time and meeting point for transportation. The response was quick and very courteous. The driver arrived on time at the entrance of the closest medina of our hotel, as agreed. There is no additional charge for transportation. Upon arrival, Ahmed welcomed us and offered us a private guided tour. We learned as much about the Art d'Argile cooperative as we did about traditional pottery and mosaic making techniques (Zellige). We were able to see the employees at work in each stage of production and know the skills needed to perform each trade. This visit allowed us to really appreciate the work of the craftsmen. At the end of the tour, a driver took us back to our hotel. The price was well worth it. We also did the workshop (this is a separate offer, see the organizer's TripAdvisor page).
Un grand merci pour votre retour si détaillé et positif ! Nous sommes ravis que votre expérience ait été agréable et enrichissante, tant pour la visite guidée que pour le transport organisé. Vos mots mettent en valeur le travail et le savoir-faire de nos artisans, ce qui nous tient particulièrement à cœur. Nous espérons vous revoir lors d’une prochaine visite à Fès pour découvrir encore plus de nos traditions et créations artisanales. Merci encore pour votre confiance et votre gentillesse ! À bientôt,
Had a great tour with Ahmed and Abdou of the tile and ceramic factory. The tour included us getting to try our hand at the pottery wheel to create our own bowl, painting a small bowl with an intricate pattern and creating our own mosaic tile. Learned so much and loved every minute!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for your kindheartedness throughout the tour! It was an absolute pleasure having you both with us. We truly enjoyed guiding you through the tile and ceramic factory, and we're thrilled to hear that you loved trying your hand at the pottery wheel, painting the intricate patterns, and creating your own mosaic tile. Your enthusiasm and generosity made the experience even more special for us. We hope your creations will always remind you of the time spent with us in Fes. If you ever find yourselves back here, we would be delighted to welcome you again for more cultural adventures! Abdou and Ahmed!
This tour was a fantastic way to experience the craftsmanship of Fes! Abdou’s passion for pottery and Zellij was evident as he guided us through every step of the process. Trying the manual potter's wheel was unforgettable, and the gallery was filled with stunning masterpieces. Highly recommend!
We're really grateful for this encouraging feedback, thank you so much for your visit and support
