Loved Loved Loved this experience. Since we were coming during Ramadan and the start of Eid, we knew we might have a chance to hang out with a guide who was celebrating Iftar in the evening. It was awesome to be with Rafiq and his family. Our three kids got really into the preparation and cooking process. I loved the fact that we could go beyond a regular tourist experience and see life in Casablanca in a totally different way. It was a perfect way to introduce our kids to Moroccan food (which they were much more likely to eat since they made it themselves!) Rafiq was a truly stellar guide, answering so many questions and teaching us about his country and culture. Highly, highly recommend, especially if you have kids!
What a fun experience....

What a fun experience. Rafak is knowledgeable about the city of Casablance. We first went to the market to pick out vegetables and fruits for our cooking class. In the old city we were able to get henna tattoos and I was able to buy some spices for taking home. At that point we went to a family apartment where we helped prepare vegetable for our tagine and our couscous meal. We also made Moroccan pancakes and mint tea. All were delicious. Rafak made us feel completely comfortable there, I would highly recommend that you take time for this tour.

One of the best culinary experience we had during our travels. Raffy and his family were great host. We learned a lot from going to the market to cooking tagin and couscous. Ines was also a good young hostess. Highly recommended!

We prepared delicious food with kind people. The experience did include a bit of walking and a guided tour of new and old Casa Blanca, where we gathered the food as a group. Very enjoyable

The cooking session is hands-on and interactive, allowing you to immerse yourself in the culinary traditions of Morocco. You'll learn to make a variety of dishes, each one bursting with authentic flavors and aromas. The highlight, of course, is enjoying the meal you've prepared. Sitting down to feast on the delicious dishes in a cozy home setting is incredibly satisfying and offers a true taste of Moroccan hospitality.
