5Thoroughly enjoyable experience
We chose an appetizer and a main. Prepped them both, then took a walk thru the market/medina, to shop for spices.
5Highly Recommended Cooking Workshop
This was a highlight of our trip. The whole team was lovely and so patient and professional. We learned so much and cannot wait to cook this cuisine at home. Thank you for a lovely and informative class.
5Tajine dream
Wonderful experience with Mariam as our chef chef!! She was patient, friendly, structured and very generous with her extensive knowledge. Everything about the place and the instruction was perfect. It was our best cultural experience while visiting Morocco. A must.
5Cooking School Fun.
First overseas cooking experience and loved it. Learnt lots, fresh seasonal ingredients. Nice to sit, eat and enjoy at the end.
5Excellent Experience!
Book this experience! I went with my teenage daughter and could not have been more pleased. Impeccably clean, friendly, fun ... we did it on our first day in Essaouira and found it to be a wonderful way to spend a day. The hosts were so inclusive with my daughter chatting with her and gave us lots of great tips and places to go and things to do during our stay. Excellent experience.

About Essaouira
Essaouira is a windswept Atlantic port in Morocco, a walled medina of blue boats, ramparts with old cannon and craftsmen working in thuya wood.
Essaouira was laid out in the 1760s under Sultan Mohammed III, who had a European engineer design a fortified port with a grid of streets inside high walls, now a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Skala de la Ville, a rampart lined with bronze and iron cannon, looks over the Atlantic, and the harbour below is crowded with blue fishing boats and screaming gulls. Orson Welles filmed scenes of Othello here.
