What to Expect During Your Cooking Class
Moroccan Cooking Class Marrakech Experience
This Moroccan Cooking Class Marrakech experience teaches you authentic family recipes passed down through generations
Morning Pickup
First, a private driver collects you from your Marrakech accommodation as the medina stirs to life. The 45-minute ride through the foothills is a journey in itself.
Souk & Spice Market Tour
We stop at the local Berber market. You'll select your own ingredients, learn to identify 30+ spices by scent, and negotiate like a local.
Hands-On Cooking Session
Next, it's time to roll up your sleeves. You'll prepare a full Moroccan feast: bastilla, tagine, couscous, harira, and more — guided step by step with stories woven throughout.
Visit to the Setti Fatma Seven Waterfalls
Afterwards, while your tajine slowly cooks over charcoal, you'll head into the mountains to explore the famous Setti Fatma Seven Waterfalls. Along the way, you'll enjoy breathtaking scenery and discover one of the region's most beautiful natural attractions.
Feast & Celebration
Finally, return to Villa Ourika and enjoy the meal you've prepared. As the sun settles over the valley, you'll share stories, sip traditional mint tea, and celebrate an unforgettable Moroccan experience.
