ザンジバルのママス - ユニークな文化と料理の体験

This was the highlight of our trip to Zanzibar. The whole experience was enjoyable, interesting, educational and the food was delicious. All the women were warm and friendly, they welcomed us with singing and dancing. The trip to the market was great, it felt like shopping as a local. There was a big emphasis on hygiene and lots of hand washing. I have arthritis and l did want to join in sitting on the floor, but maybe a small stool would have made things easier at times. I'm sure if l has said anything a stool would have appeared from somewhere. My husband was given a chair, but it did feel more immersed in everything when working on the mats. It was so worthwhile, we all loved it. There was 4 in our group.

Shared with experience with 7 of the “mamas.” Great chance to dress in local customary attire and walk to the market. Interactive preparation and fun to help with cooking, learned some recipes to take home and try. Would definitely recommend.

This was truly an AMAZING, one in a lifetime experience that I would recommend to anyone visiting Zanzibar! I took this cooking class with 5 other friends and we each had such a phenomenal time. It is so much more than just a cooking class, but rather a full culturally immersive experience. Maskat and the Mamas welcomed us with open arms and warm hugs (literally!). From greeting us with traditional songs and dance to teaching us how to shop at the local market to being extremely patient and encouraging as we learning different culinary techniques, this experience was top tier from beginning to end. Getting to hear the story of how Mamas of Zanzibar came to be and the impact that have had specifically for Zanzibari women was they cherry on top. This experience will leave you with a full belly and an even fuller heart. There aren't enough words to describe how amazing this was so you really must go experience it yourself!

The Mamas were so sweet and embraced us in open arms. We learned so much about how they make food. Making food was Mr favorite part. Omg and their greeting song is a vibe!

Great experience. I felt like I was with family. The food and company was amazing.I highly recommend.

This excursion was amazing! We were able to be immersed into the culture from getting dressed in their garments, walking to the market, buying then cooking the food. We were greeted with a beautiful song sung by all the mamas. It was truly an amazing excursion. Saying it was amazing is an understatement. 100000% recommend. Thank you again Mamas for this unforgettable experience.

If you are looking for an experience that fosters female empowerment, societal impact, entrepreneurship, and a better understanding of the daily lives of true Zanzabarians, Mamas, it is extraordinary. Yes, the food was fantastic, but this is way more than the food; it is about understanding the daily life of women in this society. From keeping a home, food shopping, to meal preparation, to community childraising, Mamas is not for the faint of heart. If you are expecting a resort-style experience, don't go. If you want to understand better those who make your resort-style experience, and where and how they live daily, Mamas is a small window into their world. You will cook, you will shop, you will chop, you will roll, you will stir, you will fry, you will eat, you will laugh, you will learn, you will grow. Mama’s will change you - for the better.

Just amazing. So sweet, welcoming and 100% authenticate. Oh and the food was better than any restaurant food you can get. Cooked with love and kindness. We took our 13 year old son and 17 year old daughter. Both loved it and would definitely do it again.

Great! Women are very kind, smiling, generous! I had the experience with my daughter of 10 and all the excursions, it is this day that she preferred.

Fun! Fabulous and Delicious! Great smiling way to learn about local culture and foods. A must for anyone who likes cooking!
