I highly recommend this marvellous experience ✨ - I had such an amazing afternoon with Sara and her family. I usually don’t like cooking but this experience was the highlight of my trip. It was powerful to be surrounded by a group of kind and caring women, my friends and I really felt at home. It was fun to learn how to cook couscous and delicious to savour it.

An incredible experience!! - What an incredible experience!! Sara was such a great host. As a first timer, I was in awe of the beautiful space and the table set up. We were greeted with smiles and the BEST homemade cookies and mint tea. Sara took her time and really included us in making a traditional Tagin dish as we cut up veggies and marinated with all the best spices Morocco has to offer. I recommend this class to anyone who wants a relaxed experience and is a great time for bonding with your friends.

Wonderful Women’s Trip Bonding Activity and Cultural Exchange - I traveled to Marrakech with two girlfriends and have never had homemade Moroccan food so I knew taking a cooking class with Sara would be the perfect opportunity for us. We were able connect and bond through getting our hands dirty to the women in her family who are so often behind the scenes cooking for their own families. We could ask them questions about the foods we were making and they could teach us about other things that came up in conversation as one of the most beautiful ways to experience Morocco as a female traveler is to connect to local women who are the hearts of their homes. Sara speaks multiple languages Moroccan Arabic, Berber English, and French so she is was great for our French & American little group. Also she was accommodating as one of us is vegetarian while the rest eat meat so she created a flow so we could make both a vegetarian tagline and chicken couscous so everyone could enjoy cooking and eating. There really is something about cooking a meal together that just makes the food taste even better. We had so much fun and I’m telling all my friends who are traveling to Marrakech to take a class with Sara!
