I booked this cooking class for my boyfriend’s birthday and it was easily one of the coolest things we’ve ever done! Rabab was such a bright presence and made the experience 10/10. The set up was beautifully decorated and so colourful. We learned so much about Moroccan culture, cuisine and history. We also got to wear some traditional Moroccan attire which was really fun. The whole experience couldn’t have been better and the food was delicious! Would 1000% recommend.

An amazing, authentic cooking class experience - a must do when in Taghazout to learn the local Amazigh culture and food! Rabab and the local women alongside her were so kind and fun, the food and cooking processes were amazing, and the space was beautiful and calm. 10/10 recommend to anyone visiting Morocco!

We had the best time with Rabab and the girls, they were very nice and fun! It was very authentic and precious. Such a great experience, we learned a lot about the amazigh culture and way of life. We cooked msemen vegetarian and with meat, but we also made amlou. It was all delicious!!! Rabab is amazing, very passionate and very sweet.

What an incredible experience. This cooking workshop is about much more than simply preparing delicious food. It’s an authentic way to discover the local culture, traditions, and a stunning, lesser-known environment — and of course, to enjoy amazing food as well. We arrived as guests and left as friends.

Had an incredible experience, we were nervous as we went with 3 small kids (2, 5 and 7) and it was super interactive and the kids loved it. The food was delicious and it was really an authentic experience. We also had her team come to our Airbnb and prepare us an authentic dinner and breakfast, was really delicious and great experience. Would 100% reccomend!!

This was my favourite experience in Morocco. Rabab is an incredible Amazigh woman who is educating tourists about the rich culture and history of her people. During this experience you will begin by enjoying a traditional tea ceremony, make your own bread from scratch, prepare and build your tajine, then bake in the traditional stove. Anyone visiting Morocco needs to try this experience.

Beautiful day cooking in the mountains with Rabab and the lovely ladies. We got to make delicious tagine, eat Moroccan sweets, drink mint tea and make Amlou the traditional way.

Rabab’s cooking workshop was fantastic and will be something that my kids and I will never forget. It exceeded all expectations. We made tea, then bread, followed by our chicken tagine and then (our kids favourite) amlou. Perfect for families. The workshop ran like clockwork and her communication via WhatsApp was very clear.
