Charming and Family Friendly - Amazing experience! The class was fun, authentic, and family-friendly. They adjusted the start time to avoid the July heat and were incredibly kind and welcoming, especially to our group with five kids. We learned to make traditional tajines - everything was delicious. The location is partway up to Spanish Mosque so while cooking and eating we watched the sunset over Chefchouen. So charming. Highly recommend!

Magical experience - became the highlight of the trip - This was an incredible cooking and dining experience arranged very last minute with Aman’s help. We were hosted by his colleague Mohammed who was lovely and treated us to essentially a private class, which turned out to have the most romantic view and dining experience ever! Mohammed was very hospitable, made sure we were comfortable, allowed us to partake in the cooking/learning while he did most of the heavy work. The dishes turned out so delicious even though the cooking process was so simple.
It was one of those experiences hard to put into words but the location, Moroccan hospitality and divine tasting dishes came together to make it the most magical evening of our 2 week trip.

Learn to Cook the Tastiest Tagine with a Picturesque Sunset View of Chefchaouen - Booked this cooking class through Viator and it was a highlight of our Moroccan holiday. We had a WhatsApp confirmation the day before and we met Chef Mohammed and his colleague Mohammed at the meeting point before doing a short hike (3 minutes) up the hill with an picturesque view of the whole city.
Chef Mohammed had perfect English and his colleague had perfect Spanish/French but both were so kind and friendly! We learnt how to make our Tagine’s from scratch to finish and their cooked it over a rustic fireplace for us. We got to see the amazing Chefchauoen sunset whilst eating our Tagine.
Definitely add this experience to your list of things to do whilst visiting Chefchauoen!!

The DREAM...the feast, the company, the view, the everything! - Aman went totally out of his way to facilitate me having this amazing experience. On other things I'd booked, being a solo traveller meant that often it was impossible to run with just me. He pro-actively organised it so I could join with a bunch of French women.
In my 5 weeks in Chefchaouen, this was undoubtedly a real highlight.
We were given a choice from a menu before of meals to learn to cook which was amazing as it meant that we could really cook something we would enjoy and cook again as well as catering for dietary reqs.
Amad's friendly team, led us through chopping and spicing in the beautiful surroundings and then as the tagines went on the open fires, we were served mint tea, bread and local cheese and could relax and enjoy the view.
When our feast of tagines (aubergine, courgette, fish, kefta) were ready it was a wonderful dinner party atmosphere whilst the sun was setting.
I've bought the spices....I've got the confidence, it's just a shame that I don't have the setting, company and wonderful team to recreate a magical experience!
Aman was really great at communicating and contacting to make sure we all had a good time.
Thank you!

End of the evening in Chefchaouen - Very warmly welcomed by our evening cook and his help, in a surprising place but offering superb views of the blue city, we learned all the secrets of making a good tagine. The children enjoyed discovering spices, cutting vegetables, onions, garlic, parsley. They made the meatballs, seasoned with spices the different dishes placed on the wood cooking stoves. While waiting for the end of cooking, our host offered us mint teas (picked a few steps) cheese. Then after watching the sunset, we tasted our tagine. What an end of day! Unforgettable for everyone. Thanks for everything. Tom

A 5 Star Experience and Dinner - This was an amazing experience overlooking the Blue City! It’s a little climb after you find parking but well worth it. Our hosts were kind and great to talk to. The ingredients were fresh and the end result was a delicious dinner overlooking the sunset!

Perfect Experience overlooking The Blue Pearl - My friends and I partook on this cooking class overlooking the beautiful Chefchouan and it was truly remarkable experience and one of the highlights of our two weeks in Morocco. If the panaromic view wasn't good enough - our instructors and chefs were extremely warm, hospitable and knowledgeable. It was truly like out of a movie - a serene evening learning how to cook traditional Moroccan dishes while watching the sunset over the most picturesque city. It was an interactive and informative class, where our chef taught us how to make eggplant, chicken, and anchovy tagines.
While waiting for our food to cook, they served us some fresh fruit to enjoy while soaking in the view. Dinner was finally served and it was delicious - definitely something I'm excited to try making at home. During our meal, it started to rain so they were very kind to transfer our whole set up inside their kitchen area. A true example of Moroccan hospitality, as they welcomed us into their space like it was ours and we enjoyed the rest of our evening eating and chatting about life. They encouraged us to stay as long as we like so not to get soaked in the rain.
Such a lovely experience and something I recommend to anyone visiting Chefchouan!
