Not only are the Maldives islands one of the breathtaking tropical retreats the world has to offer, but the nation also has a rich culture that has a lot to do with their incredible national cuisines.
The Concept
This tour basically involves you meeting a Maldivian local that will show you a glimpse of their culture before teaching you how to prepare some of their most iconic dishes. It is truly an experience that you’re bound to cherish for a long time.
Jetty No.5
This is where guests will meet their host, who will take them to the fish market. Since this experience occurs twice a day, the meeting can happen either at 9:30 in the morning or 5 pm in the evening. After both parties have been introduced, they will then proceed to the fish market.
The Fish Market
Maldivian fish markets are unlike anything else in the world, and the massive Male Fish Market is one of the nation’s biggest tourist attractions. A visit here is one of the most recommended things to do in the Maldives Island, and many resorts such as Velassaru Maldives will have tours to the city and the fish market.
Cooking Class and Meal
Once the necessary ingredients have been obtained, you’ll be taken to the host’s home where they will share their culinary techniques with you. Once the cooking is complete, the host will speak a bit about the Islamic culture during the course of the meal.
