Cooking Classes · FARM COOKING CLASSES IN MOROCCO
Every trip has one free morning. These 7 farm cooking classes in Morocco justify it, priced and timed so you can decide over breakfast and get back to the eating.
Meet near Koutoubia, explore a local market for vegetables, meat, fruit, and spices, then head to a country farm for tea, sweets, and hands-on Moroccan cooking. Chef Abdel and his team teach tajine, couscous, salads, and traditional methods in an outdoor kitchen.
“Very good class in great environment. Abdel was very good instructor. It was fun to start with the trip to the market.”
Leave Marrakech for a private four-hour class at Secret Berber Garden CT. Chef Tarik and his team guide you from garden picking to mint tea, bread, tagine, couscous, and salads, with lunch, drinks, hotel transfers, and a certificate included.
“This was the best!!! Just be prepared for an hour drive out from Merrakech. The chef was the best, from start to finish. We learned so much not to mention the food was great!”
Meet host-chef Khaoula at a farm west of Marrakech for a hands-on Moroccan cooking class. Prepare tajine, fresh salad, and mint tea, then eat your lunch beneath citrus and olive trees. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included, with dietary needs handled if arranged ahead.
“We did the cooking experience with a 16 month old and a 9 year old. The location is beautiful with lemon and orange trees in the farm. Khaoula , our host was exceptional. She had set everything when we reached. My son enjoyed preparinRead more”
Meet instructor Hanna or her family team for a three-hour farm cooking class outside Marrakech. Prepare tagine with organic produce, tour olive and citrus groves, meet horses and donkeys, and eat your meal at a communal table. Pickup and return transportation from Hotel Ali are included.
“This experience was absolutely worth it! Hanna was incredibly kind, as was her sister, who guided us patiently while teaching us how to cook their traditional dishes. I would have truly regretted missing out on this activity, the atmosphere in the garden, surrounded by nature, was wonderful and made us feel so at ease. The cooking process is both delicate and fascinating. While the food was being prepared, we took a tour of the farm, walking among the olive and clementine trees, and we were introduced to the racing horses. Hanna was so thoughtful when we told her we had a flight that same day and she made sure everything…”
From Agadir, ride into the Atlas foothills for mint tea, a hands-on Berber cooking class, and lunch with local hosts. Fatima guides the cooking, often on a terrace overlooking a garden. Expect almond trees, palms, mountain views, and a short village visit that may focus on a cooperative and herb garden.
“En Berber en kvinna som heter Fatima var väldigt kunnig, lugn och snäll. Hon bjöd på deras bröd med lite oliv olja, apelsin honung och delicious jordnötssmör. Vi lagade en underbar tagin/gryta som smakade perfekt tack vare de fräscha ingredienser och den lergryta som den tillagats i. Det hela gjordes på en fin terrass med originell möblering. Det var en underbar upplevelse men mest tack vare vår värdinna. Rekommenderar starkt.”
Leave Marrakech for a private farm and spend three hours cooking tajine, Moroccan salad, and mint tea with hosts such as Khaoula, Khawla, Nisrine, and Zakaria. You will chop, season, cook, and eat your meal, with hotel pickup and lunch included.
“Khaoula was AMAZING!! She was well prepared and took the time to carefully explain each step. We enjoyed the entire process..she took us on a tour of the farm. I highly recommend this experience. I give Khaoula a 10/10!!”
Travel from Marrakech to Imlil with an English-speaking guide such as Syed or Radouane. Shop for ingredients, cook chicken tagine with a local family, walk through Berber villages to a waterfall and viewpoint, and share lunch with mint tea.
“Syed is a great guide and was a very welcoming host to his home in the beautiful village of Imlil. This family tour company runs a number of small tours around the area, from our cooking class to trail running and hiking. They have a focus on local authenticity and were very flexible, while it would also have been interesting to learn a little more about the village culture. Highly recommend, you will come away incredibly well fed and with an appreciation for the change just over an hour from Marrakech!”
