The prompt response to my reservation augered well for what turned out to be a very professionally run cooking workshop at this beautiful riad just outside the medina. The well structured class was delivered in a well planned kitchen with individual cooking stations, television screens to see detailed steps and everything provided. There was no running around trying to identify... More

We found this activity in the top 10 rankings on Trip Advisor and we totally agree with all previous comments. We paid 600 dirham per person which may seem expensive for a cookery class but it is excellent value for money for the experience. All of our group were English speaking and both instructors were perfectly fluent. We started with... More

From arrival to the end of the half day course it was thoroughly enjoyable. The two ladies running the course were informative, friendly and good company. The classes are small and held in a most wonderful hotel. If you like cooking and are in Marrakech I wouldn't miss it. As the courses are small I suggest you book early. The... More

I scheduled this cooking class on my recent visit to Marrakech based on trip advisor reviews, and I wasn't disappointed! The registration process was easy on-line, with quick response from the Riad.

The food we cooked was delicious. I have just bough a tagine myself and am going to try out the recipies at... More

Maison Arabe provides a beautiful setting for this enjoyable class.   Organisation was very professional.   My wife and I shared the class with 8 others, and everyone seemed to have fun. Wafaa who hosted the event and the dada (chef - Fatima) were superb.  They created an atmosphere that had everyone smiling and enjoying themselves.  The pace and energy... More
