We and our Guides give the world moments that restore humanity and guarantee transformational cultural experiences. How do we do this? We open the door to North Africa so that you can visit meaningful sites related to food and then come and prepare your own meal - home-style cooking as in a Moroccan home - along with bread-baking and our beloved Moroccan mint tea ceremony and preparation. The highlight in all of this is the deep connection and laughter shared with your Experience Leader and her Assistants throughout the duration of the Experience. All this so that the world can engage Morocco's wonderful peoples and the rhythms of Moroccan life.

SO DELICIOUS & SO MUCH FUN!

5.00We had an amazing experience last week at Blue Door! Fatima, lina, Nouhaila and the girls were all super great and they were really the added value to the experience. Cooking Moroccan dishes in an amazing environment and atmosphere made it all so special. We enjoyed making the bread and then sipping tea and chatting, then cooking and entertaining ourselves in very nice conversations with the staff while waiting for the tajines to cook. I guess we were pretty good cause the food was delicious! We dearly recommend the experience, they are really the best!!
Great fun and very informative

5.00Booked whilst on a cruise, was an absolutely wonderful experience. From the moment we entered the building we made extremely welcome, tea was served and the class was explained. The instructions were very clear and assistance was available at all times. We completed cooking a proper chicken tangine accompanied by traditional bread. Of course we then sat to eat. Very pleasant way to spend a few hours
Wonderful Experience

5.00The Blu Door cooking experience was much more than a cooking class. the food was authentic, local, and really tasty. It was a great experience to cook with a tagine and the local Gues3a mixing and serving bowls. While the food was excellent, what set the apart was the time with the staff, Nouhaila Naila Doha and Nadia, while the meal cooked. First we experienced a Moroccan Tea typically served to guests. The staff provided a great background to the significance of the tea in Moroccan culture and the significance of each ingredient. The staff was also very open to discussions about their lifestyle, work, and home life that really made us feel like we gained an understanding of the culture in an honest, in person way. Overall the best experience we had during a 12 day cruise with 7 different port stops.
Cooking and talking!

5.00What an amazing time! I came with a group from our Semester-at-Sea voyage (on land in Morocco for several days). Our group consensus was:The MOST FUN field program we’ve had! Tangier itself was truly beautiful, and this experience was such a highlight! The women who gave us the cooking lessons and shared cultural understanding with us were fantastic— warm, funny, friendly, open and welcoming ! Do not miss this opportunity if you’re anywhere near Blue Door Cuisine.

5.00Our experience at the Blue Door was truly top notch. The food we learned to prepare was fantastic and the techniques easy enough that I’m sure we will use them when we return home. Even more than the food, though, positive energy, openness and smiles of our hosts Luna, Houda, Nada and Fatima made the experience wonderfully memorable!
