Discover the heart and soul of Moroccan cuisine with an unforgettable cooking class experience, whether you’re exploring the colorful streets of Marrakech or surrounded by golden dunes in the Merzouga Desert.

At Marrakech Camel Trips, we offer authentic culinary experiences that allow you not only to taste Morocco — but to live it.


👩‍🍳 Why Join a Moroccan Cooking Class?

Moroccan food is known for its bold flavors, rich spices, and family traditions passed down through generations. A cooking class gives you the chance to:

  • Learn how to cook classic Moroccan dishes like tajine, couscous, harira soup, and pastilla
  • Discover the use of spices like saffron, ras el hanout, cumin, and cinnamon
  • Visit a local market (souk) to shop for fresh ingredients with your host (in Marrakech)
  • Cook in a traditional Moroccan kitchen or desert tent
  • Share the meal with your host family or under the stars in the Sahara
