Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We only found out about this attraction thanks to TripAdvisor and made it part of our day out this morning. A kind gentleman showed us the way to make the clay, form the pots and dry them before putting them in the oven. Very informative. This is all free, but you can buy a bowl or vase from his little shop before leaving. We gave him a few coins as a thank you as we have little room in our suitcases. The baby camel is a cutie.
The broken pots are encrusted in the walls to keep the temperature even during the seasons.

Not just a good place to buy pottery, but the best place to learn the history of pottery in Tunisia. You can even ask to experience how to make it. So you start collecting the clay, taking to the place where they mix it with water, witness or even try to mold a piece and check the ovens where the pottery is made. Best thing is that all the place feels stuck in time. They work in the same way old Phoenicians would work. Great experience.

Yay this is the second attraction Tripadvisor has listed in Djerba following my suggestion. Amazing since this place appears in lots of books and websites about Tunisia.

It's not the easiest place to find, half way up a hill out of Guellala. It's a set of buildings that look like they're made from pottery, presumably the non-perfect vases are used in construction. It has quite good views of the surrounding area from behind the shop.

First they take you down a candle lit cave which the guide books say dates back to Roman times. Here you can extract some clay from the cave walls. They then show you how to turn your clay into a small piece of pottery.

You can then browse the pottery shop and feed the baby camel outside!

This is a free attraction and whilst they are open to haggling, the shop prices are not outrageous so we just bought something full price and gave them change as a tip.

They don't speak much English at this place.
