Henna Workshop in Merzouga

In this henna workshop, you'll explore the ancient Moroccan art of henna and create your own tattoos with guidance from Berber women.

Workshop Details

We will meet at Hotel Kanz Erremal to start the henna workshop. You will learn about the cultural significance of henna in Morocco, traditionally used at weddings, religious celebrations, and other events. Common symbols often protect against the evil eye or invoke fertility.

You will receive an overview of the preparation process of henna paste and learn the traditional application technique. Berber women will guide you in drawing popular symbols and explain their meanings, such as flowers symbolizing joy and fertility. You will then have the chance to create your own henna design on your hand or foot, a memorable souvenir from your trip, along with tips to maintain the tattoo on your skin longer.

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

Workshop + Pickup

During booking, you may select an option that includes pickup and drop-off at your hotel. In this case, we will arrive at your accommodation in Merzouga about 30 minutes before the start of the activity.
