A must do in Marrakech - What a great experience, we were met at the location and went to the market to pick up the ingredients, these were all explained to us, we got to see how to make traditional Moroccan tea and how to pour it. When cooking the meal everyone was included the explanation of what we were doing made sense, we made 4 starters and 2 mains (a chicken and a vegetarian option) and a dessert, it all tasted amazing the 2 chefs were very welcoming and friendly, we then received copies of the recipes to take home to try ourselves, would highly recommend

Something a bit different - My son and I took this class together and really enjoyed it. It was nice to do something a bit different. The class was relaxed and we learnt how to make some Moroccan starters and a tagine main course (a vegetarian option was accommodated for me) that we can try to recreate at home.

Great class, very hands on experience! - Great experience, from shopping for the ingredients, to cooking the foods. Everything was explained to us, and we each got a chance to be involved in chopping and adding the ingredients.

Yum! - Great mother-daughter workshop, we go to the market, cook, discover spices, eat, all in a small group. We were only with one mother and her 2 children in our case. We leave with the recipes and techniques (ultimately very easy to reproduce at home). Very interesting!

Great Experience - A wonderful experience, first meeting up and shopping for our ingredients and then preparing them for the starters and for main Chicken Tajine meal. Great guidance, participation, and engagement and the food was amazing each step of the way. This will inspire you not only as a great experience, but give you a desire to repeat some of these recipes where you go. One thing I also enjoyed was pouring the Moroccan tea with bubbles.
