Awesome hands on cooking experience - Abdo’s cooking experience was one of the highlights of our trip to Morocco. My daughter and I did together. We felt like family as soon as we stepped in the door. Don’t hesitate to book with him. You will love it!! In addition to the cooking being awesome, talking with the locals and learning about their culture was wonderful. We will be back again one day!

Delicious Moroccan Cooking Class - This was such a fun experience!! My mom and I attended Abdo’s cooking class and had an absolute blast. Abdo and the rest of his team were so welcoming towards us and all the food we made was so delicious (and there was so much of it!). I would highly recommend this and would definitely go back again!!

One of my favourite in our holiday - We had an absolutely amazing holiday in Morocco—definitely one of my all-time favourites—and the evening cooking experience with abdou and his cousin was a real highlight. Abdou is such a warm, genuine, and welcoming host. He guided us through preparing two delicious traditional tagines: one chicken, lemon, and olive, and one with beef meatballs. We also enjoyed traditional mint tea, but the real standout was the conversation. Chatting with abdou and his cousin about life in Marrakesh and the modern Moroccan way of life was fascinating and gave us such a rich insight into the culture. Highly recommended for anyone who is interested in learning about Moroccan kitchen and culture.

Tagine - The amount of actual cooking time is not much. But the assistant spoke great English. While the delicious food cooks, he sits and chats. Also made the group have a mint tea pouring competition, which my kids a d I absolutely lovef
