This experience was the highlight of our trip in Morocco and without a doubt, one that you shouldn't miss. I truly believe this private pottery class is perfect for all skill levels. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned potter, learning the traditional methods of making a tagine on a kick wheel was an exciting and unique challenge. Even experienced potters would find it to be a refreshing new skill to master!
After being shown around the pottery workshop, Youssf gave an amazing demonstration on the steps of making a tagine—from the base, to the lid, and how it's further refined. We even had the opportunity to create our own personalized plate, complete with our names, and another piece that was fired for us to pick up later.
After the pottery session, we took a walk through the town of Amizmiz, passing fields of olive trees, before arriving at a cozy guesthouse for a delicious, home-cooked lunch. Our guide, Momo, made the experience even more special by sharing his experiences and knowledge.
The entire experience was unforgettable—from the warm, flavorful chicken tagine (easily the best I had in all of Morocco) to using a kick wheel for the first time. If you’re looking for an authentic, hands-on experience that takes you outside the usual path, this is the perfect adventure.
Don't think, just book—you won't regret it!
