Nicola
A great afternoon with very knowledgeable and friendly team. Our chef Hassan involved everyone and we were impressed with how quickly he learned all our names. Great value for money, highly recommended
Ewelina
Our cooking class was more than just learning recipes — it was an immersion into Moroccan culture and tradition. From the moment we stepped into the kitchen, we were welcomed with warmth, hospitality, and the rich aromas of spices that tell stories passed down through generations. We learned how to prepare traditional Moroccan dishes using fresh, local ingredients, guided step by step with patience and passion. Mixing spices, slow-cooking tagines, and understanding the balance of flavors gave us a deeper appreciation for how much love and history go into Moroccan food. What made the experience truly special was sharing the meal together at the end — enjoying what we had cooked, tasting the depth of flavors, and feeling connected not only to the cuisine but to the culture itself. It wasn’t just about food; it was about tradition, community, and the joy of cooking together. A beautiful experience we will carry with us long after leaving Morocco. Thank you so much for having us 👩🍳🧑🍳

My friend and I booked this experience before we arrived in Marrakech. From start to finish we had an amazing time . It was great to experience making and then eating all the different authentic dishes. We were in a group of 10 from different nationalities all interesting and so friendly. Ahmed and Hassan our hosts were so lovely and made it a morning that my friend and I will talk about for a long time. Can’t wait to try all the recipes when we get home after our trip. I would highly recommend this experience.

This cooking class was the highlight of our weekend in Marrakesh. From start to finish Hassan was amazing and so warm and welcoming. It was a really special experience being able to pick out vegetables in the local market before cooking them. If you really love your food and cooking new dishes from the culture you’re in - this class is perfect. Hassan is clearly so passionate about food and sharing his love of Moroccan dishes with people that it was a real privilege to share a kitchen with him. Ahmed and his fiancée were also super welcoming and kind - we will never forget this experience. The FOOD was the best meal we had in Morocco (best meal I’ve ever learnt to cook). Thank you!
