You’ll step into Elizabeth’s family kitchen, surrounded by the aromas of fresh local ingredients and the charm of a real Monteverde home. Unlike larger, tourist-focused classes, this is an intimate, hands-on experience where you not only learn recipes but also share stories, laughter, and a homemade meal around the table. Every dish is prepared the way locals have done for generations, making it a true taste of Costa Rican culture.
