Amazing desert experience!
We booked the desert dinner show excursion in the morning and were contacted by our guide Tareq a couple of hours later by WhatsApp. We were promptly picked up from our hotel along with some other travellers and taken via minibus to our first stop. We sampled some traditional Moroccan tea and were shown how Argan oil is made, with the option to purchase some souvenirs. The second stop took us into the desert where there was the option to ride on a camel, sample more tea and traditional biscuits, with
plenty of time for photo opportunities. At the third and final stop we were taken to a beautiful desert setting and had our meal (this was wonderful and of excellent quality. Tareq even brought us out seconds!) There was entertainment, dancing and a fire show to end the night. Tareq was a brilliant guide and very informative. The whole experience from start to finish was well organised and of amazing value for money. I would 100% recommend it to anyone travelling to Marrakesh.

Great afternoon
A great afternoon spent creating Moroccan dishes! We made 4 starters and 2 tagines. There were 12 of us in total. We met the guide at 2pm at the meeting point, then went through the market to pick up the vegetables we needed on the way to the house. It was mainly chopping and preparing the food, but it was good fun. There was also an opportunity to buy some spices at the end. We finished around 4:30/45. Very good activity!

A must do experience for those in Marrakesh!
A must for anyone travelling to Marrakesh! The scenery of the desert is amazing. It’s more rocky than sandy but doesn’t disappoint. Riding the camels and quad bikes at dusk was surreal with the sunset. Everything was well organised and safe.
Food was good and we loved the fire show at the end. Make sure you pack an extra layer of clothes as it’s cold and windy once tge sun goes down.
Make sure you listen to the guide and wear your seatbelt in the mini bus. The local police wear stopping all traffic to check, one lady in our group was fined £24 / 300 DAH because she wasn’t wearing hers.

Had a great time cooking with Chef
Had a great experience making all the dishes with Chef ( Laila's daughter) Met people from Italy, Canada, Holland, USA, England. We all took turns cutting foods, prep and then eating. There was some down time while food cooked to get to know others in the group. It was difficult to find the location. Recipes shared on WhatApp right after we finished our meal. We made 3 side dishes, 2 different tagines, had dessert but chef made it and when we arrived had mint tea and cookies.

This was a great cooking...
This was a great cooking class! We each got to chop vegetables and assemble a tagine. We did get real hands-on experience. It was also nice being out in a real neighborhood where people actually live, rather than in the tourist-focused medina.
Note to others who take a taxi from the medina: I couldn't talk our taxi driver down from 150 dirhams, which I knew was overpriced. Yassine said it should have been 50 dirhams. Talk your taxi driver down to 50 dirhams!

Excellent!
We booked this trip as a group of 7 friends. The tour started with buying fresh veg etc from the market then a very short walk to the riad. There we learnt about Moroccan tea followed by the history and art of Moroccan food. The food we prepared was amazing and I would highly recommend this tour.

A fabulous way to...
A fabulous way to experience Moroccan gastronomy and customs. It was a very hands on experience and the chef did an extraordinary job of teaching us about the use of spices, dried fruit and honey in Moroccan cuisine. The farm to table setting was both authentic and intimate. It made cooking and the lunch a lovely way to spend a Spring day outside Marrakech.

Good value and memorable day out
Nice day out of the city to the Atlas Mountains with a great guide and a safe driver. We were able to experience the three valleys and visit a Berber home for a breakfast snack, go on a hike and enjoy a traditional lunch for a reasonable additional fee. Hike was pretty. It was not paved and had rocky terrain. Our guide Redouane was lovely and knowledgeable!

Magical
Great day out! Moussa was an excellent driver and made us feel safe on the sometimes rocky roads.
Beautiful views, well worth the visit!
Wear good trainers, or hiking boots. It is very slippery at the bottom.
The monkeys bite and steal food, so watch out!

One of the very best packages AND great for the money.
Great experiences, slick organisation that allows many to experience great activities, camel riding, quad biking, Moroccan dinner, fire act, with transport. Perfectly managed, great friendly operators, little selling stop with no pressure. Great value around $20 per person.

It is incredible! We rode...
It is incredible! We rode on quad bikes for an entire hour through the desert. It was truly amazing especially considering the price. We also got to swim in the pool, ride camels and had the nicest guide ever-Omar. We got picked up at the hotel and dropped back. In the desert we also stopped at a little hut for drinks mid quad bike trip. My only tip is bring a lot of water/drinks.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
The best Moroccan cuisine starts with fresh ingredients and a knowledgeable chef—and there’s no better way to learn about local dishes than by whipping them up yourself. Marrakech cooking classes let you create traditional food alongside local cooks for an immersive cultural experience. Lessons include everything you need to create one or more delicious dishes, and some classes visit a local souk for fresh ingredients—but all experiences end with you savoring the fruits of your labor.
