TANZANIAN COOKING CLASS
A Half-Day Local Experience in Moshi

Discover the flavours of Tanzania during an authentic Swahili cooking class that takes you straight into local life. Your guide picks you up at your hotel in a bajaji (tuk-tuk) before heading to the bustling market to shop for fresh ingredients. Feel free to ask about the vegetables, spices and fruits you don’t recognise — this is where the learning really begins.

After the market visit, you’ll travel to your guide’s home, where you’ll cook together and prepare traditional dishes such as kuku mchuzi, mtori, chapati, or wali maharage. You’ll be involved from start to finish: chopping, mixing, tasting, and sharing stories while your guide explains the techniques used in everyday Tanzanian kitchens.

Once your meal is ready, you sit down to enjoy the dish you’ve prepared — a true “local style” experience.

Duration: +- 4 hours

Don’t forget: clothes that cover your knees, sunscreen, comfortable shoes or sandals

Our Tanzanian cooking class takes half a day and can be organized in the morning or the afternoon.
