“Amazing! Adrian and Angel were super informative and kind. Every single food stop was delicious and transports you into the Mexican culture. Must have experience when you visit Cancun.”
Explore Oaxaca’s market, prepare traditional dishes, and share a generous meal in this hands-on four-and-a-half-hour cooking class.
“Market walk was nice, it was not what I was expecting for a cooking class. Felt rushed as lots of stuff was prepared by staff and cooked by staff. Maybe 45% of the cooking was done by us. The table we ate at was beautiful but I was hoping to really go from 0-100 cooking the authentic meal. In hindsight I would go for a more expensive, longer class for a more full experience. Oscar is very nice and the staff were friendly. Just not what I was hoping.”
Explore Cancun’s Mercado 23, shop for fresh ingredients, and cook guacamole, sopes, enchiladas, tortillas, and arroz con leche.
“Wonderful instructions and included in preparation! The did was terrific. Also with l walked away from this knowing that I can make everything we did.”
Learn tortillas, guacamole, enchiladas, sopes, and margaritas in Cancún with an optional local market visit and hotel transport.
“Thoroughly enjoyed this tour, our guide/chef Nassim was wonderful, very good at explaining everything and answering all my questions. The tour of the market was lovely to see more authentic Mexican souvenirs, and it was nice to see the produce we were going to be cooking with. The recipes were delicious and so much fun to make, and Nassim made sure we had a fabulous time. Would recommend and would do again if I come back!”
Pick a canal, a covered hall, a souk or a stove.
