ロアタン料理教室と文化体験

From the time we got off the cruise ship it was a great experience! Reny was the attentive gracious host to the 4 of us to the point of making sure his car was spotless and he stayed with us the entire time making sure we had the best experience. Louis and his team made us feel at home as he told us about the culture and history of Roatan. And the cooking class was such a great experience! I would highly recommend Roatan Five Stars tours!

We did a morning excursion starting with the monkey & sloth experience, and finishing with the cooking class. I would suggest doing both. The sloths and monkeys were a hoot. We got to pet the sloths and get in the monkey cage. Being a little germaphobic, I was initially uncomfortable, but I decided to get in. A monkey jumped right on my head and it was precious. We then went and learned to cook a Honduras meal. The team was incredible, and the food was over the top. It's one of my favorite excursions I've ever done, and I've done several dozen.

Driver picked us up outside of gate, about a 10 minute walk. Went to see the monkeys and sloths before our cooking class. Wonderful hosts, and yummy food. Learned some history of Roatan also. Nona was also there to help us out! Got the recipes and was given a lovely gift. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for something authentic and different. Much better than riding around in a bus, in my opinion! Thanks for a great experience!

We’ve been coming to Roatan for many years now and don’t really do the tour activities at this stage. But some friends invited us to this cooking class and I’m glad we said yes. Getting to learn about the history of the island was great. The cooking part of the experience was fun and the food was delicious. One of our group members does not eat chicken yet the coconut chicken seemed to disappear from his plate! A big thank you for the wonderful afternoon.

We had a lovely time, the food was tasty and fun to make, the space was very nice, clean and had a view of the water. We received a hands on experience making empanadas and tostones. Our chef/driver (Shauna) was very friendly as was her manager (Louis) who assisted during the class. We would definitely recommend this tour. On top of the cooking class, we also learned about the culture and people of Roatan, tried some local casava and coconut bread along with a tasty coconut dessert. The tour was 3-4 hours and we even had a moment to stop at a local grocery store on the way back to the port, to purchase a few items to make the empanadas at home since we were also provided with recipes for all the items we made. Only thing of note was exiting the port (we were there on a cruise ship) was a bit chaotic, just so many people trying to sell you on their tour or taxi. However, everyone was helpful though when we asked for the "Five Stars" company and we were walked over to a rep who called our driver for us.

We had such a great time on this excursion. Very hands on and personal. We learned a lot about the culture and history of food on the island and also learned to make some delicious food as well as eating food they prepared for us and getting a goodie bag to take home!

This was more than a cooking class. From the moment we were picked up from our hotel, the guide gave us a history of the island and it's people. We were really made to feel at home at the beautiful house where the cooking class was held. While this was not an intensive cooking class, we were able to get a great cultural experience with very lovely guides. In the end we were served a delicious lunch, with the items we cooked, plus some chicken that the host made. The only thing I would do differently is not to eat breakfast prior to coming.

It is s fun way to learn more about the local culture. The food is great and families csn do it. We can't wait to try the recipes at home.

We had an amazing time. We love food and to cook and this was our favorite part of the trip. Chef Shauna was great sharing not only how to make the food, but about the culture of the island. She was patient with those of us who weren’t as experienced in the kitchen and we had an amazing time. Most importantly the food was delicious. Come hungry as this was the best thing we ate on the island all week. Everything was great and we were stuffed. 10/10 would do again.

This was a very good excursion. Hands on food preparation for local cuisine. The staff was super friendly, knowledgeable, and friendly. Our driver JB was exceptional! Such a nice young man and friendly. We would definitely do this excursion again.
