Sun,Spice,Tradition: Cooking with Berber Family Outside Marrakech
Description

From your accommodation in Marrakech, a driver will take you to his traditional home, nestled at the foot of the mountains. There, Saida will welcome you warmly and introduce you to the secrets of Amazigh cuisine, preparing iconic dishes like tagine, with fresh and local ingredients. Beyond this culinary immersion, discover her commitment to women’s autonomy through her Berber carpet cooperative, where talented craftswomen perpetuate ancestral know-how.

I shared a great time with Saida in her Berber home. I will have a great memory of this friendly and warm day, during which I learned to cook a tagine and prepare tea. I discovered the life of the villagers and their authentic environment. I highly recommend having this experience. Thank you, Saida!
I had the opportunity to discover this beautiful place where the local mistress Saida received us very well. We learned how to make a chicken and vegetable tagine and then tasted it. We were able to visit with Aziz, the small village of Amizmiz perched in the Atlas Mountains and meet the carpet weavers. We had a very nice day and I know I will come back with great pleasure to sleep there this time. Thank you to Saida and all her family for the warm welcome. I recommend this beautiful and friendly place! Looking forward to coming back soon I hope 🙂
A favorite for this place, for this beautiful project, for the welcome, for Saida and for her family - a big thank you, it is a wonderful discovery. Saida and her family introduce you to the richness of Amazigh culture through cooking classes, bread making, walks in the surrounding mountains, carpet making - all in a moderate, respectful "tourism" committed to the environment, the preservation of history and know-how and the independence of women. A big bravo - these are projects that must be supported.
