Wonderful Moroccan Cooking Class & Experience - Absolutely wonderful experience with Youssef at the cooking school. We experienced a Moroccan cultural experience, enjoyed learning about tangine preparation and delicious salads, and learnt so much about the Moroccan culture. Youssef and the team were very warm hosts, we thoroughly enjoyed the pops of music and the dancing as a bonus. The meal we shared at the end was outstanding. We were picked up promptly from our Riad and as an added bonus experienced the Moroccan landscape and the majestic Atlas Mountains.

Chef Youssef Is The Best! - We had a private cooking class with Chef Youssef. It was amazing. He had a great personality and sense of humor. He taught us a lot about Moroccan food and cooking. We made 3 tagines and 3 salads. All were great. This is a great experience while in Marrakech!

Unique cooking experience - My wife and I had an incredible experience at the cooking class at Secret Berber Garden. The chef instructor was amazing in explaining the ingredients, the preparation and the cooking. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. It was such a relaxed time learning to cook three tagines and three salads. And then the pleasure of eating our own work for lunch was inspirational. I highly recommend this class for anyone who loves food.

Perfect introduction to Moroccan cooking - We spent a lovely morning learning about Moroccan food and culture including tea with chef Yousef! Beautiful tastes and smells all round and great company. My partner and I were there on our own, so we’re paired up with a lovely bunch from Australia, NZ & Canada on our class. We made 3x tagines, 3x salads and some cous cous…and there was even surprise dessert ☺️ set in beautiful lush surroundings with a little farm at the back.
Highly recommended!

A lovely experience - We had a lovely time, really enjoyed the venue. It was so relaxing away from the busy city and the sight of the Atlas Mountains in the distance on journey to the venue was beautiful. The vehicle laid on was very clean and the driver was very nice.
The cooking was simple but authentic and tasty.
All in all, we were very happy with the experience.

An unforgettable moment... - After half an hour’s drive in the middle of nowhere, the doors of the Berber garden opened and we were instantly transported to another world: a huge open-air garden, an oasis of greenery. The site, although able to accommodate up to 200 "apprentice cooks", offers a paradoxically almost intimate atmosphere, reinforced, it is true, by the fact that we were alone.
The welcome, faithful to the Moroccan tradition, was particularly warm (tea ceremony, exchange with our trainers of the day, presentation of the course, etc...)
The course, which took place in a very professional but absolutely relaxed atmosphere, surpassed our expectations. We cooked 3 tagines, 3 salads and 1 couscous, attended the traditional bread making and of course... tasted our achievements.
These few hours in the Berber garden will remain without hesitation the best memory of our stay in Marrakech.
Recommended without moderation.
A huge thank you to the whole team of Chef Tarik, and especially to Malaco and Fatima, for their professionalism, their kindness, their communicative joie de vivre... a very nice meeting!
It is now up to us to make your teaching live to bring joy to our guests.
