    Pottery in the Rif mountains - a wonderful experience

    Michael_D, Apr 2023
    Fatima took us on a nice ride to meet a Berber family who lived in the Rif mountains near Chefchaouen. After tea with cookies, we were taken through the steps in making pottery - getting the clay from the ground, crushing it into a powder, adding water to make the ‘dough,’ shaping and assembling a piece of pottery, decorating a finished product. You do not end up with a piece that you can take with you since the actual process from start to finish takes days; however, you have a good understanding of what Berber’s do to make their pottery. After that learning, we had a wonderful lunch of soup, chicken tajine and cookies for desert - it was wonderful!! Fatima then drove us back to Chefchaouen through the wonderful scenery of the Rif mountains. It ended a brilliant experience.

    Thank you very much for the wonderful review. What a wonderful memory :) May our paths cross again. Kindly

    This is a “must-do” experience when in Chefchouen! Something you will never forget!

    What an incredible experience! Our guide arrived early to take us to the car. She drove us up the mountain to a traditional Berber family’s home, where we spent the day learning how they make pottery from start to finish. We made our own pots and were also able to paint with the colors they make from nature. We were served a delicious traditional breakfast and lunch and got to spend real quality time with our host family and our guide, Fatima. Fatima translated so beautifully it felt as if we were communicating directly with the family. This was such an incredible experience for all of us and something we will never forget. Do yourself a favor, get off the beaten tourist path and book this experience with Fatima; you will truly not regret it.
