Azteca Tacos Cooking Class

The experience was amazing and way different than any other cooking experience we've done. Our guide, Danny, took us to a ranch where we were greeted by the children who lived there. The oldest child helped give us a first hand tour of the ranch. We learned about cactuses and which ones were safe to eat. After the ranch tour we were taken to the "kitchen" area where we made tortillas, pico, salsa, and prepared the cactus that we would eat with the tacos. Black beans were prepared for us due to cooking time. They also had fresh goat cheese that was made fresh for our visit. To drink we had an amazing lemongrass water. Danny took us to the beach after dinner to walk and view the scenery. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to experience the culture!

What an amazing authentic experience. The Ranch where we explored the farm and traditional cooking class did not disappoint. It was extremely interesting and absolutely yummy. Five stars and a must do if you are in the southern Baja near Cabo or Pescadero.

I booked this cooking class because a couple of my friends were interested. I wasn't all that into it. Cooking while on vacation didnt sound like fun. Wow. I have never been more wrong. This has to be one of the best afternoons I have ever had. Period. Everything about it. The energy, the location, the hosts, the food. It was so peaceful up there. And fun to learn about such a variety of topics... from the basic culinary aspect... to the cultural history... and how many still live off the land on their rancho. It was beautiful up there. And Danny is hands down the best host i have ever had. Knowledgeable, attentive, adventurous, accommodating, and fun. Its obvious he loves what he does and it shines through every part of this. I couldn't recommend highly enough!

Spending the afternoon making tacos and enjoying margaritas with my friends was absolutely unforgettable. The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel at home from the very first moment. We laughed, shared stories, and learned so much about Mexican culture in such a heartfelt way. Every detail, from the cooking to the drinks, was filled with care and joy. It wasn’t just a fun afternoon, it was a truly magical experience of connection, friendship, and celebration 🌮🍹💖.

This was both tremendous fun and interesting. We were picked up promptly in central Cabo San Lucas and driven to a ranch about 30 miles from the city. There we learned about native plants and customs, before chopping and cooking and sitting down for the kind of meal that you can't get in a restaurant. All topped off with a beautiful sunset on the local beach. Thoroughly worth it.

Wonderful to experience local life and culinary delight. My partner, sister, and I were picked up at our resort, driven out to a ranch, introduced to the family who works the farm, and taught about the plants and animals being raised there. After the tour we procured our dinner right from the earth and were shown how to prepare it. Wow, Nopal (cactus) tacos from scratch and a lemongrass tea too. The family was very welcoming and we were all joking around by the end of the day. Our guide had a lot of knowledge of the area and the people who live there (currently as well as pre colonial) and shared in detail. Highly recommended!

An experience rich in culture and history. I had a wonderful time at the rancho, located away from the tourist areas of Baja. Danny is an exceptional guide, and the rancho family made the experience even more fun and memorable.

The people were friendly, the food was great, and we learned a lot. Wonderful way to get away from the tourist traps and learn more about Baja Sur.

Danny and Jordan are very knowledgeable and provide an excellent insight to Mexican history. In addition they provide information on traditional agriculture and farming techniques. Thorough nutritional advice also comes with the food preparation and eating experience. We made corn tortillas from scratch, salsa-spicy & mild, nopales tacos and frijoles. Romenna-9 yrs old & a wonderful child- will help & grade your nopales harvest and preparation. There is home prepared goat cheese also. At the end you will be treated to an amazing Pacific Ocean sunset. Danny & Jordan are very personable and professional. They have created an excellent experience that is out of the ordinary for tourists to Cabo. It is our 2nd time doing this with different friends and I strongly encourage anyone to participate in this adventure.

The experience wasn’t what we expected but it was much better. One of the best experiences I’ve had in Mexico. The family with small children were delightful. Food was delicious. Danny and Jordan guides were so knowledgeable and lovely men. Please give it a try. You won’t be sorry.
