The first thing to do in Fes - If you plan on visiting the beautiful city of Fes, be sure to do this activity first! The cooking class first took you through the markets and picked out the vegetables and food that was needed for the cooking class. Then, it takes you to the Riad where the class begins. The instructors were so nice, welcoming, and great to talk to. They made the class engaging and fun. And when we were done with making the food, we got to sit down and eat it and it was by far the BEST Moroccan food I had in all of Morocco. We went to plenty of restaurants within the country, but the cooking class with making your own food made the food special and taste wonderful. It truly is. 10/10 experience. I learned so much and truly the best food you will eat. Not a plate left with any food on it at the end! So the next time you visit Fes, come here to this cooking class and learn how to make wonderful Moroccan dishes and eat the best food in the country. It is 100% worth the price.

Fes cooking class - Wonderful experience with Rabal and Naima. Starting with buying our food for cooking in the Fez souk and returning to a lovely Riad to cook in the courtyard with the help of Naima. Would definitely recommend. Lovely people and a great experience! Thankyou, Dianne and Michael

Unique and enjoyable way to experience Moroccan culture! - This cooking class was a highlight. It's a unique and relaxing break from the typical tours in Morocco. held in a beautiful location that makes it feel homey and relaxing. Attending the market with a local was enjoyable and fun to witness. The meals we cooked were tasty and we had so much fun. We learned how to make delicious Moroccan food, including chicken Tagine and eggplant salad! Thank you!

Great experience attempting Moroccan traditional cuisine - We had a great time preparing local dishes with the help of the chef and friendly translator. The setting was very nice, we cooked everything in the garden then ate our meal outside there. All traditional dishes were made in a vegan version as per our request. We really enjoyed our experience and recommend it to everyone!!

Great experience! - We had a great time and learned lots of different recipes that were easy to make at home. We really enjoyed the little trip to the market before starting to cook. A very friendly and perfectly organized moment so that each person in the group participates and then shares a good meal. THANKS !

Highly recommended - We chose the cooking class experience in Fez, which included a tour of the market with Rabab, the preparation time and finally enjoying the lunch prepared in the splendid garden of the riad. We strongly recommend the experience, first of all for Rabab's kindness and friendliness, then also for the location in which the experience takes place and for the success of the dishes, among the best eaten during the entire holiday! Excellent quality-price relation. Thanks Rabab see you soon! Andrea and Francesca

Pleasant and tasty experience - 3 middle-aged madam on tour in Morocco got the chance for a cooking course in Fes. After several intense and contentful days on the go, this quiet afternoon was the right thing. We met with our very sweet and sympathetic guide Rabab in the souken and got purchased div. raw materials for dinner. Then we went to a riad where the food was prepared in the cozy courtyard surrounded by fountains, shady trees and a couple of turtles. An older woman led the cooking (maybe her name was Naima?) and Rabab interpreted along the way. We got made appetizers, Moroccan salad, dessert and 2 tagines, of which the with beef, apricots and sweets was our absolute favorite. Finally, we enjoy the whole food and feel ready to experiment with the beautiful Moroccan cuisine. Can warmly recommend ❤️
