Experience to live! - We had a very pleasant time with Ismael and Sanae: shopping at the Point of Sale, preparing lunch, and tasting. We have already been able to reproduce the tagine at home thanks to the recipes sent to us by email. I recommend!

The highlight of our holiday - My son and I were only in Morocco for a total of 3 days, but the highlight for us both was without doubt the Cooking Class at MonRiad. Such a great experience - lovely food, wonderful hosts and a stunning location. I can't recommend this highly enough! It was our chance to see a bit of the old city, as we got to go to the market to help pick out the ingredients to cook. All in all an amazing day that neither of us will forget - Shukran to everyone at MonRiad!

To do absolutely! - Exceptional!!!! My daughter and I were greeted by Marina with great kindness and attention in her beautiful riad. We then went with her to do the Point of Sale in a good mood. On the way back, it was with Karima that we learned to prepare a Moroccan salad, a delicious couscous, a vegetable tagine and a bluff dessert: the cream of milk with grapes and almonds!!! Karima is really adorable and accompanied us with patience and kindness in the kitchen. In the end, we enjoyed what we had cooked.

Excellent activity. - A very nice experience with my mother and my little sister. We feel welcome from the first minute. Ismail has an exceptional sense of hospitality. I enjoyed the little walk with him, to the Point of Sale to do the shopping ourselves. And the cooking class with super chef Karima, who passed on some cooking secrets. We had a good laugh. As a result, the meal was delicious and simple to make again. The setting of the Riad is so beautiful and quiet. Do not miss this activity if you pass through Marrakech.
