Embark on a culinary and cultural adventure into the heart of Morocco's vibrant soul.
Travel to the charming village of Aourir, famous for its exquisite pint-sized bananas. Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of the market (souk) here, where you'll join the locals in shopping for fresh ingredients among stalls, learning a few Arabic phrases as you go.
Next, venture into the majestic High Atlas Mountains, stopping in the tranquil village of Alma to explore an aromatic organic garden. Here, amid fragrant argan forests, savor the art of the traditional mint tea ritual.
Unleash your inner chef as your cooking class begins. Under expert guidance, create a flavorful Moroccan salad seasoned with healthy argan oil, followed by personalized chicken tagines infused with preserved lemon, spices and saffron. As your tagines simmer, discover the ancient secrets of argan oil extraction and Berber beauty rituals. Savor the fruits of your labor with a tasting of your freshly prepared meal, including the vibrant Moroccan salad and succulent chicken tagines, followed by a sweet finale of oranges with cinnamon and local bananas.
Finally, what better way to complete your experience than to enjoy the warmth of traditional Moroccan tea?
