Henna Workshop in Merzouga

In this henna workshop, you'll explore the world of this ancient Moroccan art and create your own tattoos guided by Berber women.

Workshop Details

We will meet at the Hotel Kanz Erremal to begin this henna workshop. Get ready to learn the secrets of this art in the desert of Merzouga.

We will start by discovering the cultural significance of henna in Morocco, traditionally used to adorn hands and feet during weddings, religious celebrations, and other special events. Common symbols are used for protection against the evil eye or to invoke fertility.

You will learn about the preparation process of henna paste and the traditional technique for applying designs. Berber women will guide you in drawing popular symbols and their meanings, such as flowers representing joy and fertility.

Following a brief explanation, you will have the chance to create your own henna design on your hand or foot, serving as a beautiful souvenir. We will also provide tips on how to maintain the tattoo on your skin.

After this 1-hour activity, we will conclude at the entrance of your hotel.

Workshop + Pickup

During booking, you can select an option that includes pickup and drop-off at your hotel. In this case, we will pick you up from your accommodation in Merzouga about 30 minutes before the activity starts.
