Dive into the bustling energy of Souk Semmarine, renowned for its traditional clothing and finely crafted leather goods. Engage with local artisans and discover the meticulous skills behind their creations.

Witness artistry in action at nearby workshops, where craftsmen create pottery, metalwork, and wooden artefacts, preserving traditions passed down through generations.

Our guide Yassine was knowledgeable and fun to be with. It's always good to chat with a local and learn about their country first hand. We were a small group and we moved at a comfortable pace. I definitely would recommend this tour.
