A beautiful experience. You enter a real Moroccan house and prepare various dishes, including the famous tajine. The guides are very friendly and make you feel at ease; there is laughter, joking, and discussions about traditions while meeting new people. A beautiful experience.
Great experience with Mohammed and Zacharia. They have been very welcoming and we had a good time. We had the chance to prepare and share some amazing authentic dishes and to have a good chat while at it. It felt like being with friends. I highly recommend it. Thank you!
Thank you so much! We're thrilled you felt like you were with friends that's exactly what we aim for. Hope to welcome you back one day
The amount of actual cooking time is not much. But the assistant spoke great English. While the delicious food cooks, he sits and chats. Also made the group have a mint tea pouring competition, which my kids a d I absolutely lovef
Thank you for your thoughtful review! You're right that the hands-on cooking time is limited while the tagine simmers — we focus a lot on culture, conversation, and fun. We really appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome your family back someday!
Abdo’s cooking experience was one of the highlights of our trip to Morocco. My daughter and I did together. We felt like family as soon as we stepped in the door. Don’t hesitate to book with him. You will love it!! In addition to the cooking being awesome, talking with the locals and learning about their culture was wonderful. We will be back again one day!
Thank you so much for your beautiful review! You'll always have a place with us, and we can't wait to welcome you both back one day
This was such a fun experience!! My mom and I attended Abdo’s cooking class and had an absolute blast. Abdo and the rest of his team were so welcoming towards us and all the food we made was so delicious (and there was so much of it!). I would highly recommend this and would definitely go back again!!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! Nothing makes us happier than knowing our guests left with full bellies and big smiles 😊 We'd love to welcome you both back again someday hopefully for another round of delicious Moroccan cooking!
Very good experience, very friendly teachers and good way to learn more about Moroccan culture by preparing excellent dishes. I recommend!
Merci infiniment pour votre retour ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez passé une excellente expérience et que vous ayez apprécié autant la cuisine que les échanges culturels. Ce fut un plaisir de vous accueillir, et nous espérons vous revoir un jour pour partager d'autres délices marocains !
Absolutely loved every minute. The warmth and hospitality shown to us as tourists was next level. It’s rare to find a place that makes you feel this welcome. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!
Thank you so much for your beautiful review! You'll always be welcome here
Hands down one of the best experiences of our trip. Everyone was so kind and welcoming to us, despite us being new to the area. They really know how to look after you. Thank you for making it so special!
Thank you so much! We're truly honoured to be counted among the best experiences of your trip. Making guests feel welcome and cared for is exactly what we love to do — especially when they're new to the area. So glad we could be part of your journey, and we'd love to see you again if you're ever back this way
We had an absolutely amazing holiday in Morocco—definitely one of my all-time favourites—and the evening cooking experience with abdou and his cousin was a real highlight. Abdou is such a warm, genuine, and welcoming host. He guided us through preparing two delicious traditional tagines: one chicken, lemon, and olive, and one with beef meatballs. We also enjoyed traditional mint tea, but the real standout was the conversation. Chatting with abdou and his cousin about life in Marrakesh and the modern Moroccan way of life was fascinating and gave us such a rich insight into the culture. Highly recommended for anyone who is interested in learning about Moroccan kitchen and culture.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're so glad you left with a deeper appreciation of Moroccan culture and kitchen traditions. Thank you for your kind recommendation, and we hope the tagines you make at home bring back lovely memories. You'd always be welcome back!
Everyone was so kind and welcoming to us, despite us being new to the area. They really know how to look after you. Thank you for making it so special!
