Food & Wine Tours & Trips in West Africa
Morocco's food tours open up a world of flavors and cooking knowledge. You'll start your mornings watching locals brew coffee in hot sand and learning how to make msemmen flatbreads right on the street. The tours mix city and countryside cooking nicely - one day you're in a family home learning the precise art of rolling couscous, the next you're visiting women who produce argan oil using traditional methods. What makes these experiences special is learning directly from local cooks, especially at places like the Amal Association where you'll get hands-on practice with Moroccan salads and proper tagine techniques. Our travelers particularly enjoy discovering regional specialties, from the distinct goat cheese of Chefchaouen to medfouna, a hearty filled bread that nomadic communities prepare in the desert.

Fantastic journey. Deep dives into the culture and food without being overwhelming. Guides were great in cultural immersions, and felt safe throughout the trip. The trip does involve travel by a minibus, but the minibus was new, and there were plentiful stops along the way that kept the drives short. Homestays/guesthouses were awesome - great lodgings, and talking with the families who lived in the region for generations was very heartwarming. One night, after dinner, we played some 80's songs with singalong with our tour participants... this was followed by a very spontaneous drum performance by the sons of the proprietors, then a song/dance with the matriarch of the family as well. It was amazing. Great tour and memories.
