Great human and culinary experience - Have been very satisfied with this activity. Races to buy vegetables and meat in a very spectacular part of the medina. Then cooking class in a Riad with a guide and a cooker. Participants prepare vegetables ... and cooking is done in the kitchen. The whole lasts about 4 hours with the final tasting of the whole meal , with hors d'oeuvres like Lebanese mezze (based on tomatoes , onions , eggplants ... spices ..) then the dish itself: in our case it was a chicken tagine with lemons , olives , made with onions . Summarise the best tagine of our 4 full days stay. Quality much superior to everything we have known in restaurants and certainly the best tagine of our life because "family-style" cuisine that cannot be found in restaurants given the preparation times (peeling , cooking ..) Our guide Hamid was perfect: efficient and smiling. We found this activity on Tripadvisor (then Viator and Medina tours in Fez ) Beautiful experience

A excellent cultural experience. - This was an AMAZING experience! We were picked up at our riad and walked through the market to select our meat and vegetables. Then we were taken to the kitchen to taught how to cook tajine and other local dishes. Everyone was so friendly and spoke excellent English. The whole experience was relaxing and delicious!

Intimate cooking class with dishes we have prepared upon returning home. - A porter came to our hotel and brought us to the market to meet up with Badr. Badr was very informative concerning the ingredients we needed to buy for the cooking class. Fatima was a fantastic chef and Badr translated and also showed us how to prep the food. We made Tekktouka (roasted peppers), Zaalouk (roasted eggplant with cilantro), carrots with mashed garlic, and Keftka (meatballs in a tomato sauce). The food was delicious, and we learned so much about Moroccan cuisine. I highly recommend it.

Magical experience - The cooking activity is great. The atmosphere is joyful, pleasant and warm. It is a very good way to discover Moroccan culture in the company of a driver and very pleasant hosts, happy to share their tradition around a moment of conviviality. I recommend 100%.

It was so convenient to... - It was so convenient to be picked up and dropped off at our hotel (Riad). We loved our guide Badr had fun picking out food in the local market while he explained things about the area. Cooking was great, he showed us some of his favorite songs and we showed him ours. Delicious meal, great company, felt very safe and taken care of!

This was a wonderful... - This was a wonderful experience from driver picking up, to Badr showing us around the market, and the chef herself. The experience does take about 3.5hrs from pickup to shop, cook and eating. Both the guide and chef were patient and open to anything we wanted to try to eat and however much we did or did not want to do. Felt like we were in their home being taught how to cook by family.

Must do Cooking Class in Fez - Had a really lovely time! Fatima and Chef explained it really well throughout the process and we really enjoyed eating what we cooked afterwards. We cooked a tagine, zalout, shakshouka and a carrot salad. On top of it Fatima answered many questions we had about Fez and Morroco.
