3 hours 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

Come experience authentic Moroccan and Amazigh culture with my family in the old medina of Rabat!

Your adventure begins as my father welcomes you and teaches the art of Moroccan tea-making.

My mother and I will guide you step by step to prepare ANY Moroccan dish you want from Tagine, Touscous, or Rfissa.....etc. (vegetarian/vegan available).

You'll grind Amlou using a 95-year-old grinder and learn to make Tafarnout bread over charcoal, then eat it warm with honey, butter, olives, and olive oil while the main dish cooks.

Because we love sharing our culture, we often surprise guests with an extra traditional dish!

For unforgettable memories, dress in our Berber wedding outfit and real silver jewelry.

Then we gather to enjoy the feast you helped create, sharing stories and laughter around our table. You'll leave with new skills and the warmth of Moroccan hospitality.

Available daily at 11:00 AM or 4:00 PM.

Join us for delicious food, cultural connection, and a true family welcome!
