5.00Very friendly and informative guide. Spent time showing us the various portions of the island and shared the history. He was very helpful in teaching us the pottery wheel and techniques to make whatever shape of pottery we wanted. Would highly recommend as something different and fun to do.
Best excursion on Tortola

5.00We had the most wonderful experience in Tortola. Karl is the most amazing tour guide and a great teacher of pottery. We saw many of the sights and beautiful wall murals. We received personal instruction to make our own handcrafted pottery keepsakes. We rate this 10++++++

5.00Surrounded by the simple beauty of the Pottery Garden, an atmosphere of creativity, laughter and novelty was created. I had so much fun! Definitely a place to stop on isle of Tortola for both beginners and pros alike! Karl, with a K, lol, was so experienced, kind and all around super funny while conducting and interacting with our group. I truly appreciated his down-to-earth attitude and the ease in which he made everyone feel seen and heard. I would definitely head back for another go. Don't Walk, Run to the Pottery Garden!
Fun and educational pottery class

5.00Karl made arrangements to pick me up at the cruise ship port. His van was immaculately clean. He gave me a tour of the town and shared a lot of interesting history. After the tour, we went to his pottery studio. I had fun trying the pottery wheel. Karl helped me create a teacup that actually looks like a cup 😉. He’s going to finish the piece and send it to me. The US tariffs have made it difficult for him to send finished pieces to the United States, but he’s done some research and found a solution. It is more expensive, but he warned me of the shipping cost before I committed to the class. All in all, I had a really great time and I learned a lot. I would recommend this experienced for anybody. I’ll try to add a photo once I have the finished teacup.
Something different

5.00A real down home experience to take you away from the ordinary. Even if you’re a klutz like I was, this being my first time ever, molding the clay is still very therapeutic and inspiring. I really love our pieces as well. Thanks Karl!
Good Stuff!

5.00Karl was delightful from the moment he picked us up until he dropped us safely back off. We had a little emergency and my husband had to go back to the ship. Karl patiently waited with us at the port for him and then took us to his shop while detailing TONS of history and tidbits of info driving through the island. He was so kind, understanding, and knowledgeable with great teaching skill for myself and my husband and especially for my kiddos (12 and 8 years old). I don’t think they will ever forget this experience. They both enthusiastically agree that this was their favorite excursion of our 10 day voyage and one of their favorites ever. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
Awesome experience

5.00I booked this of tour outside of the cruise offering because I needed something me and my 18 year old niece and I could do together and get me out of the sun because I had, had enough of sun things and I picked great. Karl our host, pottery treacher extraordinaire was waiting for us and we got off the ship early. He gave us a great tour of the city and history lesson. Then we went to his private studio where we got to learn, play, rock out (I had Spotify and we connected to his speaker), and make our pieces. He is a great teacher and a wonderful guy. We both (my niece and i) had a wonderful time. I might say this to keep your piece it is going to have to be shipped and you need to pay for it. It would be best if you had cash for that. If you have your own FedEx or ups number that would help in the shipping. Other than that I would do it again and tell my friends.
