Cooking Classes and Street Food Tours

Which food experience suits you?

First decide whether you want to cook or taste your way around the city. The listed workshops run from one to five hours. A short session is a compact introduction, while three- and four-hour classes allow more time to prepare dishes and eat afterwards. Settings include a medina home, a riad, a culinary museum and a farm. Some options add a market visit or hotel pickup; a seven-hour Atlas trip combines cooking with a Berber family and the journey from the city.

Street-food tours are walking experiences lasting two to four hours. Several explore the medina and Jemaa el-Fna after dark; depending on the card, the focus may be a set number of tastings, a full dinner or a tour explicitly described as small-group. Couples and travellers who would rather sample several stops than make one meal may prefer this format. Families can consider one of the shorter workshops, but should ask the operator about accepted ages and participant numbers before booking.

Check inclusions rather than choosing by duration alone. A market visit, transfer and meal are not stated for every class, and a tasting tour does not automatically mean a full dinner. Confirm whether pickup covers your accommodation or whether you need to reach a medina meeting point. Daytime works naturally for an option that shops for ingredients before cooking; choose an evening tour if experiencing Jemaa el-Fna at night is part of the appeal. Flag allergies in advance and ask whether food can be prepared separately.
