A very authentic experience! - We had a wonderful time exploring the markets and picking up the items for our meal before heading back to the Riad where we got to watch the meal being prepared whilst we had our questions answered and useful information provided. The final meal was very tasty and rewarding. Highly recommend!

Cooking class at Masterchef! Fantastic!! - Beautiful and immersive experience. We shopped in the souks choosing the best vegetables, then came back and prepared together with our hosts an appetizer and vegetarian tajine, we saw how to do it and we also actively participated. Then we ate the dishes prepared all together. At the end on the terrace a beautiful moment of sharing between tea ceremony and pastries. In the end, they took us back to the hotel, making us discover secret places in the Medina. Fantastic experience and highly recommended to everyone!

Enjoyable personalized experience - This was a lovely, personalized experience, from buying vegetables, meat and fruits from local bazaar to cooking up a delicious Moroccan meal with guidance of the lovely host. It gave a good insight into the life of a local household. The host family was very kind and welcoming.

Family experience. - It's just as they describe it. Cooking in a Moroccan house, although they might let users interact in the marketplace in some way. The food is very good. Please buy your mother a new skillet.

Wonderful Experience - This was an incredible experience to learn first hand about life in the old Medina of Fez. The family was open and kind and could not have made our experience more enjoyable.

Fine hosts and super experience! - We enjoyed the workshop! The hosts were very friendly, we went together to the market where mainly locals come and had a beautiful view of the roof terrace of the riad while cooking. The recipes were very tasty and we will definitely make these ourselves!
