About this tour

[su_expand height=”75″]

Tagine Cooking Class with a Local: Create an authentic Moroccan tagine with a cooking class in Marrakech. Shop for ingredients at a souk, learn about herbs and spices from your chef, and prepare a Moroccan meal to enjoy afterward.

Begin this delicious food tour of Marrakech at the legendary Jemaa El Fnaa Square, home to nearly a millennium of trade, haggling, dining, and socializing. Soak up the history, tradition, and culture around you as you stroll through the narrow streets that lead off from the square, stopping along the way to explore some hidden local shops and sample some of the many versions of olives, nuts, and other typical Moroccan snacks. From there, head to one of the city’s most popular sections, the Spice Market.

Soak up the fragrant aromas of cumin, saffron, ginger, pepper, and turmeric as you stroll through the colorful market, then continue your Moroccan culinary odyssey through the souks, where you’ll discover the many traditional breads, and perhaps try a cow’s hoof or sheep’s head along the way.

After seeing all the fresh ingredients from the souks and markets, enjoy a tagine cooking class with a traditional local amidst the hustle and bustle of World Heritage-listed Jemaa El Fnaa at its peak, surrounded by locals, snakes, and monkeys, an atmosphere that’s hard to beat.
