All about argan oil! - Great experience learning all about argan oil! Making the oil by hand was a lot of fun, and you get to take home the oil that you extracted from the ground argan nuts. Beautiful house and a fun activity! We would definitely recommend this!

Best workshop in Morocco - Najlae's workshop was amazing. We learned the process of making argan oil from start to finish. We learned exactly how to spot the high quality 100% oil. We left with a bottle of the oil we pressed each, a huge value considering the enjoyable time spent and amounts we'd pay in the souks for lesser quality oil.
It was an easy walk and was simple to find from our riad in the Medina. Najlae was very helpful and friendly, with excellent English, and she suggested some ideas for travel outside of Marrakesh as well. Truly this was one of our trip highlights. While my daughter is college aged, we both agree families with teens or younger children would enjoy the process of grinding, pressing, and bottling the oil.
We made the oil in her mother's home, ate delicious treats made by her sister in law, and ground the seeds on her family's traditional grinding stone. We cannot recommend a better afternoon spent in Marrakesh. Wait until after this tour to consider purchasing argan oil.

Such a satisfying moment of pleasure - Very very good time.
A very warm and smiling welcome.
What a pleasure to make your own pure argan oil, to know its secrets and to better understand what motivates its price.
A real moment of family happiness with a guide who is fluent in French and English.
We travel through family craftsmanship and its values.
Thank you for your welcome and your explanations in a good mood!
I don’t speak English 🤣

Authentic & hands-on class - Najla welcomed us into her home via a maze of an alleyway so don’t be late to the pharmacy meeting point. Set inside a beautiful clean family riad the setting couldn’t have been more perfect. We had about 45 minutes discussing all about the argan oil, Najla swapped between French & English for the guests there. Then we spent over an hour squeezing out the argan pulp to make oil. It was such a lovely tactile experience, we had a great time. We took away 100ml of our cold pressed oil. Highly recommended.
PS This class booked out the night before
