Gnawa Music & Fire Night with a Berber Family

An intimate evening of hand-drums, sintir and mint tea around a desert fire.

About this experience

In a small auberge on the edge of the sand, a Berber family welcomes you with sweet mint tea poured from a height and a tagine shared from a single dish.

As night falls the men take up the goatskin drums, metal qraqeb castanets and the bass sintir for an evening of trance-like gnawa rhythms — and before long you’re pulled in to clap, drum and dance under the stars.
