Cursos de culinária em Ollantaytambo

My husband, 2 kids (who are experts in the kitchen :)) and I really enjoyed this experience. We did this on our first day we arrived in Peru, before Machu Picchu and Cuzco, and it really helped set the tone for the rest of the trip to immerse ourselves in the beautiful culture of Peru and its wonderful people. Jenny, the chef, introduced us to classic Peruvian dishes and it was great to learn how they are made. We really loved her warmth and kindness, and she’s clearly a pro in the kitchen! Gabriela translated in English for our kids so beautifully and made the experience even more special. After the fun experience of hands-on preparing and cooking, we had a very lovely and delicious meal together. Highly recommend this experience for everyone, it is worth every penny!

This experience was a true highlight of our time in the valley. In addition to making a wonderful meal, we also made new friends and learned so much about the local community. I cannot recommend this enough.

Jenny was delightful. She was very patient with our elementary Spanish. Our interpreter Brisa was great as well. The experience was great for us to interact with a true local. The dinner was fun and tasty

The Awamaki cooking class was both culturally immersive and loads of fun! The hosts were exceptionally friendly and accommodating through the whole process. We highly recommend anyone staying in Ollantaytambo to give this a try. Thank you Awamaki!

I am so happy that I booked this cooking class with Awamaki. It was really fun and a great experience. Melissa was the Awamaki liason and translator, and Tina hosted and led the cooking class in her home. We briefly visited the local market, then went to Tina's home and started cooking the delicious meal. Overall, a wonderful and very special evening.

We selected this cooking class in Ollantaytambo based on Awamaki’s mission in the Andean communities but it well exceeded our expectations. Our family had a fantastic experience. Special thanks to Irma for taking us into her home. We enjoyed preparing the dinner then sitting down to the meal together. The food was delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed the company. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Chef Tina is incredibly warm and we felt so welcome in her home. It was great to learn how traditional dishes are made and socialize while the meal cooked. Highly recommend fitting this fun and educational experience into your stay in the Sacred Valley (the location in Ollantaytambo is easy to reach from the other towns as well!).
