About this activity

Set off on a unique culinary adventure in the heart of the Atlas with Saida, a passionate and inspiring chef. Originally from a mountain village, she was one of the first women in her community to become involved in tourism to improve her life, support her family and help the people of her village.

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. An authentic, human and gourmet experience that will leave you with unforgettable memories.
