Authentic Local Engagement Unlike typical cooking classes, this experience starts with a visit of the local market. This not only offers a chance to see and select the freshest local ingredients but also provides an immersive look into the vibrant culture and daily life of Alicante for a cultural immersion. Hands-On Learning with a Local Chef Being taught by a local chef means participants receive authentic insights and tips that they wouldn't get from a generic cooking class. The combination of market visit, hands-on cooking, wine pairing, and communal dining creates a multi-faceted experience that is both educational and entertaining. This is more than just a cooking class; it’s a culinary journey that participants will remember and cherish. Perfect for All Skill Levels. Tapas, paella and your favorites drinks are included. (soft drinks, wine, sangría, beer) This experience allows for social interaction, making it ideal for both solo travelers and group.

    Well run and fun experience. Andrea & her associate were attentive and friendly. We cooked paella in teams and ate tapas and had Tinto de Verano. Andrea showed us a way to make that drink special. Enjoyed the guides, travelers, and the food very much!

    We had a very good time and learned how to cook a paella. We went to market and was shown the ingredients and got to interact with the people at a local market. We cooked 3 different paellas and tapas. We had such a great time everyone worked together, and we were shown some cooking techniques. Everyone there enjoyed it, we were from all over the world. There was plenty to eat and drink

    The tour was informative as well as interactive. We enjoyed preparing our own meal. Our hostess was eager to please by providing us different tastes of wine and a special mixture of Fanta lemon lime and red wine. Our dinner was amazing!

    This tour and class were everything we wanted in this experience. From the tour and walk around of the central markets, and the class itself, everything exceeded our expectations. The tour of the markets was not only enjoyable but informative. We got to visit many stalls and learn about where the food we’d be cooking with came from. And we got an informative history of the markets themselves as well. The class itself was quite interactive and informative. We were able to do everything easily, and had a lot of fun doing it. The ingredients we used were obviously high quality and we were told why we were using everything and why it went in the dish when it did. And the end result was delicious!! As for the hosts, Christina and Andrea were awesome, friendly, fun, and very knowledgeable. We all got along well and we were able to follow instructions from them with no issue. Andrea was very excited that we all wanted to try squid ink in our dish as she’d been wanting to do that forever (and it was by far the class favourite)! This is definitely worth the time and the money!
