Great Unique Experience - This was a very cool activity to do. It was something new and different that you won’t find anywhere else and I loved that you walked away with something special that is a Moroccan staple (a bottle of your own 100% pure argan oil made by you).
Even without the argan oil making, I enjoyed this experience because Naj was so welcoming and felt like a friend immediately. I could’ve talked to her all day and would definitely be good friends with her if we lived in closer proximity to each other. She was also very helpful in terms of giving advice about things to do in Marrakech, what you should pay for items, and how to act while in Morocco so you are friendly and respectful but at the same time avoid getting taken advantage of.
First she met us and took us to her house. We talked for a bit over tea and cookies that she provided. She then gave a brief explanation about the history and process of making argan oil and its uses. Afterward we proceeded to make our own from seeds and bottle it. Naj also made herself available to answer any other questions we had for the remainder of our visit in Marrakech. I would highly recommend this experience. Not only was she great, but you will not find this experience anywhere else.

Great workshop - I had the most beautiful and authentic experience during my holiday in Marrakech. Najlae’s workshop for making argan oil was so great and informative. She made me feel welcomed from the moment I have arrived. I have enjoyed her hospitality and was listening to her explanation about different argan oils and the process of making them. I have enjoyed Moroccan tea and some traditional sweets and then started making my own argan oil. The process was fascinating and Najlae was kindly explaining every step. I highly recommend this workshop if you are looking for authentic experience.

A Beautiful, Rooted Experience — More Than Just Argan Oil” - This argan oil-making class was truly something special. It was held in the host’s beautiful, clean, and peaceful home, which immediately made the experience feel intimate and deeply connected to the culture.
From the moment we arrived, we felt welcome. The host was incredibly patient, kind, and full of life—we laughed, shared stories, and learned so much about Moroccan traditions and the roots behind argan oil. It wasn’t just a class—it felt like being invited into someone’s world.
She taught us how to make argan oil by hand and also explained what to look for when buying argan oil back in the States—something I never knew I needed. We were served delicious snacks and the best tea, and by the end of it, we didn’t just leave with knowledge—we left with a new friend.
She also hosts cooking classes, and if you're visiting and don't book anything else—let this be the one thing you make time for.
An unforgettable, soulful experience.

10/10 Incredible Experience!!! - This was a 10/10 must do experience!! Najla was an absolutely amazing host who knows a lot about the process of Argan Oil making. She has been absolutely incredible in helping us not only through the workshop but also about learning the tips and trips for tourists in Morocco.
We met her at the meeting point and she invited us into her house for tea and traditional Moroccan biscuits. She then explained to us about the process of Argan Oil making and how to identify it from fakes. After that we got right into it! As real Argan Oil is hard to find even in Morocco it was nice to have both the experience of making the oil and knowing you leave with the real thing.
A definite must experience for anyone visiting Marrakech. We had the most amazing time and can't thank Najla enough for her kindness!

Making Argan oil with Naj! ✨ - Naj was an absolute pleasure to meet—her energy is bright, contagious, and truly uplifting. She radiates good vibes! We had the opportunity to learn about the process of extracting oil from the Argan seed, which was fascinating. She also prepared some delicious snacks and made an incredible Argan oil and honey dip—it was absolutely divine!
This was such an enriching cultural experience. I highly recommend ensuring you have a reliable way to contact her while traveling, just in case you need assistance finding your way.

My friends and I loved this! - This was one my friends and I favorite tour. We actually got lost on our way to the meeting spot ans my phone was working for about a hour but Naj continued to reach out and finally got ahold of me and came to get us from the meeeknf spot. We were so glad we got to experience making the oil. The process is so cool.
P.S. If you are clumpsy like me, wear something you don’t mind getting oil on.

A Must for Argan Oil Lovers - Naj is wonderful host, and she went above and beyond to rearrange our booking when we couldn't make the original date.
Lovely spread of tea and cakes in her beautiful home on arrival.
The experience was really enjoyable, authentic and memorable.
She took us through the whole process of creating a quality oil, and explained how to tell a fake from the real thing.
For anyone looking for argan oil in Marrekesh, you should book this before any potential purchase.
