amazing food with unlimited wine and a view. GREAT experience, must do!
This was one of the highlights of my trip! it ended up being very intimate (it was just myself, my friend, and a couple) which i think definitely helps. There was unlimited wine and hibiscus juice(both were EXCELLENT) and the class was very hands on. the instructor was fun and the Balin (the chef) was very funny and helpful. now the food, AMAZING. got to eat multiple dishes and they were like nothing ive ever tried. flavors were insane. and the view from the rooftop was breathtaking. at the end, they give you a QR code to scan with all the recipes. this was worth every cent

One of the best travel experiences.
Amazing! Balín, the chef, was funny and a good explainer. Nellie, the interpreter, also did a great job. We enjoyed the other guests as well as the wine and jamaica and view while we were cooking. And the food was absolutely delicious. We laughed and learned and would do it again in a heartbeat!!!

Wonderful local food experience
Wonderful fun activity and experience; chef and translating guide were really informative about the food and origins of recipes and ingredients. Everybody was able to get involved and try making different bits, wine was flowing as was the laughter and fun. Recipes available online also so can make at home after. Good value for the time spent there and the experience and multiple courses of dishes. Over 4 hours of a really enjoyable experience, nice group and not too large size, so everyone could hear information and take part. We were picked up from outside hotel which was fantastic.

AWESOME!
What an awesome experience! I got to ride on a chicken bus with the chef who took me to the most incredible food market. He shared his knowledge of Guatemalan culture as we walked the market. We then took another chicken bus to a nearby town where we learned to cook multiple dishes in the most beautiful setting. The use of clay pots and wood burning stove made the food spectacular. Sitting down with wine and trying the dishes was a perfect ending to the evening. I loved this experience.
