Experience Details

Traditional Moroccan cuisine is rightly considered one of the tastiest and finest in North Africa.

We will meet in the old medina, place de l'Horloge, and will immediately go shopping in the markets of Essaouira.

We will explore all the markets and buy the fresh ingredients from the locals to buy food.

Later we will go home, I will receive you with Moroccan mint tea.

After that we are getting ready to cook together, I will show you how to cook our couscous step by step and I will share with you all the recipes I learned from my grandmother.


Finally, we appreciate our work, we will savor our preparations with a great Berber mint tea! I'll show you the secret of good!
