★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 299 reviews · 7 hours · from $54

Travel from Marrakech to an Atlas Mountain village, shop for fresh ingredients, then cook tagine, couscous, and bread with a local grandmother and her family. Guides such as Ibrahim, Badr, and Ismail share local stories before you eat a three-course lunch at the family home.

“Excellent experience worth the short journey outside the city! Badr and his little “family” are so sweet and warm. They have a good system and know what they’re doing. The food was phenomenal and was far superior to the coincidentally exact same dish I got at a restaurant in the city the night before! It was very fun to make it ourselves although the recipe and execution of making it is quite simple so I don’t know that I really learned anything. Make sure to eat a big breakfast because we were starving by the time we actually ate at the tail end of the experience around 15:00!”
