What you can expect

Begin your culinary adventure with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Djerba, where you will meet your welcoming local host.

Start your experience with a visit to a vibrant local market in the heart of Djerbahood, the island’s famous open-air street art gallery, where colourful murals, local life, and authentic Tunisian culture come together in a truly unique atmosphere : a true immersion into everyday Tunisian life.
Stroll through colourful stalls overflowing with seasonal vegetables, aromatic herbs, local delicacies, and traditional spices.

Guided by your host, discover how Tunisians select fresh ingredients for their daily meals and learn about the rich culinary heritage of the island. Discover the secrets of Tunisia’s famous spices, their history, their traditional uses, and how they bring depth and character to local cuisine.

After the market visit, head to a traditional Tunisian home where your hands-on cooking workshop begins. Under the guidance of your host, prepare several emblematic Tunisian specialities, including fresh Tunisian salad with local olive oil and seasonal ingredients, traditional crispy egg brik, and authentic Tunisian couscous prepared using traditional techniques.

From rolling semolina to folding and frying the perfect golden brik, every step is explained with passion and authenticity. Along the way, your host will share family recipes, cultural anecdotes, and culinary traditions passed down through generations.

Once the cooking is complete, sit down and enjoy the delicious meal you have prepared together in a warm and friendly atmosphere. Conclude with traditional mint tea, offering the perfect opportunity to relax, exchange stories, and enjoy a genuine moment of Tunisian hospitality before returning to your hotel.
