Today we had the best experience in Marrakech. Karima brought us into the maroccain traditions starting with the shopping into a non touristic market, picking the fresh ingredients, and then leaded us into a journey into homemade recipes. We prepared our own food and enjoyed the best tajinas of our two weeks trip in a beautiful riad. We can’t stop recommending this experience, both for the amazing food and especially for Karima, she’s the most amazing, smiling and welcoming person. Don’t miss this! 😉

This was incredible. We met the guide and one other couple for some quick shopping of the ingredients for our meal. Following our guide through the markets was a blast--nothing like being with a local. Our guide paid for everything and was amenable to pick up extra vegetables for a vegetable tagine since my wife didn't want to eat a chicken that was slaughtered in front of us. Unfortunately, our guide had to run for a family emergency, but left us in good hands at the Riyad where we cooked. There, two local women helped prepare all ingredients but then let us take over for the actual chopping and layering of the ingredients in the tagine. (There was also a man that worked at the Riyad that translated.) We made two tagines--one with the chicken, one with vegetables--and a dessert with oranges and cinnamon. Whilst the main dishes cooked, we had mint tea and cookies and relaxed. The meal was absolutely delicious. We're so happy we signed up for this and highly recommend the experience.

We really enjoyed our time on this tour. Met some nice people and enjoyed a meal together. Shopping for food with a local is nice, because I wouldn't do it otherwise. She did not have to haggle. We passed on the chicken experience. The guides were lovely and answered all our questions. Nice way to spend the day.
