Riad Dar Zaman Reviews

Superb Cooking class experience One of the best experiences of our trip to Marrakech. Peter took us on a tour before the cooking started where we experienced some local sights such as bread ovens, market, hamman and some other historical sights. Peter was fun, friendly and informative throughout. We then went to Riad Dar Zaman where our cooking class began with Hassan and Karima. We're vegetarians and class was adapted to us. We made a vegetable tagine, salads, desserts and mint tea. Hassan and Karima were so lovely, friendly and helpful throughout. All recipes were shared after and we then got to have the food for lunch. It was definitely one of the best meals we've had. The food was so amazing we can't wait to recreate when home. The experience was never rushed and would recommend to anyone wanting to learn about the local food whilst having a fun experience. Great for couples.

Fabulous experience Great experience here. We booked the cooking class and it was brilliant. Peter was lovely - took us on an informative tour about local life. Hassan was wonderful and Karima’s cooking skills and tips were amazing. Great visit, can highly recommend this lovely Riad and people for a day out.

What can we say.... What can we say.....Peter and staff were amazing. That should always be on the top of any travellers list. Helpful, friendly, happy the list could go on. The riad was a surprise after walking down very close alleyways. I'd actually compare it to the tardis. The courtyard was idyllic with water trickling into the plunge pool, which was a must for your feet after walking all day. It's so accessible to the souks with about a 5-10 minute walk and about 20 minutes to the main square. Once you figured out how to get there. We stayed in the terrace room, which wasn't massive but plenty big enough and had everything you need. To be honest we slept and showered in there and that was it. Lastly the food, it seems they're always cooking as the smell make you hungry on its own. We had meals the first day and could have easily eaten there all 4 days but wanted to experience as much as we could. But there was plenty to keep your hunger at bay with the included breakfast. We both enjoyed Marrakesh with both the food and the people being our high lights. I would post some pictures, but it was too relaxing to worry about the technology we seem to not live with out.

Calm oasis with amazing staff The staff were simply amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. They were attentive but discrete. The food was very very good. The property is an oasis if calm and the plunge pool in the courtyard was the perfect way to cool off after walking the city.

Amazing experience at hidden Riad We joined the vegan cooking class in beautiful hidden riad. It became definitely the highlight of the trip! Peter took us to Hamman, vegetable markets, communal oven in local area(not many tourist), cooking with Karima and friendly Herman was very informative and all the dishes was absolutely tasty. Their riad was beautifully set up. It made our trip unforgettable!
