Moroccan Cooking Class with Souk Tour

The Moroccan Cooking Class with Souk Tour is a 3.5-hour cooking experience in Fes, in Morocco's Fès-Meknès region, operated by Morocco Cooking. The listing does not state how long the operator has been running. The experience starts with a selective hotel pickup from a riad or hotel in Fès el-Bali, the old medina, with the meeting point confirmed at booking and Bab Boujloud as the reference point. Visitors first make a souk visit, walking through the medina's markets to see the produce, spices and other ingredients used in Moroccan cooking. The group then moves to a kitchen for a hands-on cooking class, where participants prepare the dishes themselves rather than watching a demonstration. The tour finishes with a meal of the food that was cooked. The listing does not give the number of dishes or the balance of savoury and sweet; Moroccan classes of this type commonly centre on savoury dishes such as tagines and salads, sometimes with a simple dessert, but the menu should be confirmed at booking. The price is about $64 (roughly MAD 600) per adult. It includes the souk visit, the hands-on cooking class and the meal. Extra drinks, tips and souvenir purchases are not listed as included. Because the hotel pickup is described as selective, visitors should check that their accommodation is covered, and otherwise arrange to meet at the point given at booking. Group size, guide language and pace are not described in the listing and should be confirmed when booking. Dietary substitutions are not mentioned, so vegetarians and visitors with allergies should tell the operator in advance. The class runs year-round and suits visitors who want a practical introduction to Moroccan home cooking along with a look at the medina markets.
