🇲🇦 Craft Tours in Morocco
Where the craft trade in Morocco can be seen in person — workshops, craft towns, cooperatives and markets — and how to go about arranging a visit.
Visiting the craft trade in Morocco
Morocco’s best-documented visitor point is Fez. Tanneries, zellige tile cutting and blue-and-white pottery concentrated in one historic production quarter, with brass and woodwork trades alongside. A visit here is worth arranging directly through a workshop, cooperative or the town’s craft association rather than turning up unannounced, since much of the work happens in small family units, not public showrooms.
Beyond these named towns, Morocco also has craft activity organised around cooperatives, state or regional emporiums, and export clusters that are not set up as visitor attractions but will often host a serious buyer or a small group by prior arrangement. Season, festival calendars and current opening arrangements are worth checking close to your travel date rather than relying on anything printed in advance.
Which city for which craft
If you only have time for one stop, this is where to point it — the specific craft town, and the gateway city to fly into to reach it.
