Overview

Enrich your vacation culturally and attend a one-day mosaic workshop in a natural and relaxed environment and in just 4 hours learn the basics of this ancient art form of mosaics. The workshop setting is in a traditional outside courtyard filled with orange, lemon trees and flowers safe from the sun and rain.
