About this activity
Marrakech is a city you eat in the street. This three-hour walk takes you from tanjia slow-cooked in the ashes of the hammam to flaky msemen, from fresh-pressed fruit juices to snails in broth at the Jemaa el-Fna stalls, with a guide who explains each dish and picks reliable places.
We finish on a terrace above the square, with tea and almond pastries in hand. In quantity, expect the equivalent of a full dinner.
