• Aghbalou - Visitors depart from Marrakech for a leisurely culinary adventure in the Ourika Valley, featuring round-trip transportation, an interactive Moroccan cooking class, lunch in a garden setting, and poolside relaxation when the weather permits.

Upon arrival, guests are greeted with traditional Moroccan mint tea before cooking alongside a local host. They learn straightforward Moroccan techniques, spices, and preparation methods while crafting classic dishes like salads and tagine using fresh ingredients.

Following the class, guests enjoy the meal they helped prepare, rather than just stopping for a typical restaurant lunch. The atmosphere is serene and authentic, with mountain views, garden areas, and free time to unwind before heading back to Marrakech.
