Said and Mohamed
Said has worked at Riad Shaden since 2011 and has been the manager since 2017. Both Said and his assistant Mohamed speak English and French. Said also has a tourist transport licence allowing him to transfer guests to and from the airport as well as on excursions outside Marrakech. Our 2 ladies, Sanaa and Saadia are among the best cooks in Marrakech, and will be delighted to share their secrets with you in a cookery lesson. Both have worked at Riad Shaden since 2010 and our guests always enjoy their delicious home cooked food.
All of our Riad Shaden team have worked with us for many years and enjoy meeting our guests from all over the world.
Riad Shaden is situated at the end of a quiet, residential cul de sac in the east of Marrakech medina. Guests will experience the local way of life on the 15 minute walk to Djemaa al Fna. There is a local market 100m from the riad where we buy all our food daily, and guests are welcome to accompany our staff on a shopping trip as part of our very popular cookery lessons.
