Standard tour packages include a 45 to 60-minute cooking session in a traditional wattle-and-daub home. The meal is prepared using a clay wood-fired stove.

After the demonstration, you sit down for a buffet-style lunch. The local operators source ingredients sustainably, often from the village's own agricultural plots.
