Wonderful experience! The tour operator provided very clear pick up instructions including a photo of where we would be met. The outdoors kitchen is located in a beautiful garden and it is a stunning setting. The Chef was amazing and interacted with everyone individually while providing instructions in both English and French. We then ate the delicious food we prepared in the garden and were provided with containers to take away our leftovers. A great day!

Amazing Time!

AMAZING time with Tareq and the crew. They picked us up promptly close by our hotel then we drove towards Agafay. We stopped at an Argon shop and they explained all the products which was perfect for picking up a few gifts to take back home. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a fun day!

This was a fabulous experience. Bouchra met us is an easy place to find in the Mefina and took us to her home. Everything was so well organised and after a chat she had us chopping up vegetables and making marinades and dressings. She was funny and relaxed and gave us historical facts as we chatted. The food we made was delicious and we all sat together and shared our meal

A Delicious, Welcoming and Truly Memorable Cooking Experience

This cooking class was one of the highlights of our time in Marrakesh. Our originally scheduled chef experienced an unexpected operational issue, but she communicated with us and thoughtfully arranged for her son to lead the class. He was absolutely wonderful—knowledgeable, patient, personable and committed to making sure we had a great experience. The change did not take away from the class at all. We put on our aprons, got behind the cutting boards and learned to prepare several traditional dishes, including potato salad, seasoned carrots, Moroccan salad made with tomatoes and green peppers, and a delicious chicken tagine cooked in the traditional clay pot. The class was hands-on, relaxed and filled with good conversation. We also enjoyed sharing the experience with travelers from Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and the United Kingdom. Preparing and eating a meal together created such a natural opportunity to learn about one another’s cultures. The food was delicious, and receiving the recipes afterward was an especially thoughtful touch. Now we can try to recreate a little of Morocco at home. From the communication surrounding the last-minute change to the instruction, hospitality and follow-up, everything was handled beautifully. I would absolutely recommend this class to anyone looking for an authentic, enjoyable and personal cooking experience in Marrakesh.

We made a tagine and salad and a simple dessert. There are vegetarian options for the main dish. The chefs are brothers and have a super fun dynamic. They play music and sing and in general keep the vibes high- we had a really great time and they taught us some new techniques!

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Morocco! We attended the cooking class with our toddler, and the experience could not have been better. Cookie was incredibly accommodating, patient, and kind, making our daughter feel welcome and included throughout the entire class. She was not only warm and sweet but also extremely knowledgeable, sharing insights into Moroccan cooking. The class was hands-on, informative, and enjoyable from start to finish. Most importantly, the food was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Morocco, especially families traveling with young children.

Atlas Mountains, 3 Valleys & Agafay Desert from Marrakech-DayTour

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.
