Fes is Morocco's capital of craft. In small workshops across the medina and the pottery district, artisans still cut zellige tiles by hand, hammer brass trays and weave on wooden looms.
This tour takes you inside those workshops to meet the makers, see how things are made and try a few techniques yourself. If you want to buy, you'll be buying directly from the people who made it.
