Highlight of our time in Marrakech
We had an amazing time at Farm to Table, and left completely stuffed, happy, and with a whole new appreciation for Moroccan food. :-)
It was so much fun to learn about authentic Moroccan dishes, the fresh ingredients, and how everything comes together. To top it off, we were thrilled to get the recipes sent to us afterward so we can relive our experience.

Amazing sunset experience in the Agafay Desert!
We had such an amazing time in the Agafay Desert! The sunset camel ride was a real highlight and such a memorable experience. Tariq was a fantastic host, and everything was well organised, from the comfortable transfers to the dinner and evening show. Great value for money and an experience I’d highly recommend!

Great day
We had the most wonderful day with Hassan! It was really well paced, we didn’t rush anything and had time to chat and ask questions. We went around the local market and selected the vegetables where Hassan involved us all individually. We then learned about the popular mint tea and the best way to brew it. We made 4 different tagines, one beef based, one chicken, one handmade meatballs and sauce and one vegetable, along with two local salad dishes. We had one vegetarian which was catered for with a separate shaksuka dish. Hassan was really great at getting everyone individually involved in the process and we learned a lot. He was very fluent in English and French so everyone could easily understand. The day wasn’t rushed at all, and we had a delicious lunch! Genuinely a lovely guy and very knowledgeable! Our group total was 11 which was perfect. You won’t regret booking with him - thank you so much Hassan!

Lovely morning with lunch
Lovely way to spend the morning, relaxed, sociable and gently educational, I learnt some new techniques and methods of cooking. The morning ends up with a delicious lunch as we eat the dishes. We made four starters, all veggie, and two tagines, one chicken, one veggie. Recommended!

Fantastic Fun with the Family
A very well organised and enjoyable insight into Moroccan cuisine. I took part with my 12 and 10 year olds who found it to be the highlight of their holiday. Laila and her family were very accommodating, took time to include everybody and their approach with the kids was perfect.
I would have no hesitation in recommending this activity.

Fun, engaging guides that make for a fun hike to the falls.
From Marrakech, a 2 hour comfortable bus journey to the falls. We were met there by an experienced guide who gave a us a great informative tour as we hiked our way to the waterfalls. We took a short boat ride around the falls. We saw & interacted with the local monkeys along the way. We had a wonderful lunch near the falls with traditional Moroccan food. Our guides were so engaging with the group, asking to take videos & photos on people’s cameras for them. The guides, bus driver were super nice & professional. This was a super tour, but the day is long, so rest up before you go. Great value on this tour.

I would recommend it without hesitation.
If you are in Marrakech, don't miss this experience. Zacarías shares his passion for cooking in an approachable and fun way, and Fátima makes you feel at home from the very first moment. Between delicious recipes, laughter, and good conversation, you discover much more than the local gastronomy. An authentic experience.

Wonderful experience.
Cooking class well-organized in all its aspects: the trip to the market where we learned several interesting facts about the products for sale was very fun. The Riad where the course is held is beautiful, clean, and well-maintained. We cooked some exquisite dishes by following every step. At the end of the experience, photos of the evening and recipes for the dishes made were sent to us. An absolutely recommended experience!

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!

Recommended - good value
Booked last minute - surpassed expectations. We were picked up near Jama al Fanaa around 10am and made our way to an Argan press facility. We were served with olive oil, honey and peanut dip with bread and tea followed by a bried overview of the argan hand press and various products available. We then made it out to Agafey dessert where we did quad bikes followed by camel ride. Lastly we had lunch which was pretty good and after, back to Jama Al Fanaa before 2pm.
Relative to my expectation and the cost, experience overdelivered with kids super happy.

Super cooking class, interesting and informative. Very well organized.
The cooking class was a highlight of our trip to Marrakech. The group had about 15 participants, so there was enough time to ask questions and for good supervision by the instructors. After an introduction to the traditional way of making mint tea, the cooking class took place in a super-equipped kitchen with screens and a cooking area for each one. It was flatbread and a traditional Tarjin dish cooked by everyone. Thanks to the very good care, even people who have no or very little experience with cooking can participate.
At the end we ate our food in a nice round and got another surprise.
I will revisit the course in case of another visit.

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.
