Had a great time drinking and enjoying the host. It was great to meet the chef. I enjoyed them explaining the history behind the food.
Thank you so much! We’re delighted you had a great time and enjoyed meeting the chef and discovering the stories behind the food. Hope to see you again soon!
We loved our cooking class today. Oscar was a great instructor and threw in some fun little tidbits along the way. The dishes we made were delicious! I was fun to sit at the restaurant and eat what we made after class. So good!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted you enjoyed the class with Oscar and, of course, the delicious dishes you made. 😊
Fun experience and great food. Learned a lot about Central American an Mayan food, and tried some new (local CA) fruits / veggies, as the staff was fun and knowledgable. In addition to making ceviche, we made three pupusas (one was a dessert pupusa), each. So much food that we asked for to go boxes! Tour was slightly shorter than 3 hours - about 2 hours to make the food and then we ate around noon. This is hosted in the restaurant - open air, so it's a bit loud with golf carts and such passing by.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted that you enjoyed learning about Central American and Mayan cuisine, trying local fruits and vegetables, and making ceviche and pupusas with our team. It was a pleasure having you, and we hope to welcome you again on your next visit to Belize! 😊
They never told us we had to take a boat to another island from where the ship docked . If we had missed our boat it would have cost us more then we lost . We had no way to contact them until we got back to the states . So we lost all the money we paid . Learned a lesson book threw the cruise ship only
We understand your situation and the frustration this may have caused. The location of the class is clearly stated in the activity description, and we regret that you did not have the opportunity to contact us in advance, as some participants do via email or phone to let us know about a possible delay or difficulty. This would have allowed us to offer you alternative solutions. If you ever return to Belize, we would be delighted to welcome you back and offer you this course under better conditions.
Excellent staff, delicious food! Great to meet others who also attended.

The experience was so fun! Food was great (some seafood, but even if you don’t like seafood it’s worth it)!
Thank you! We’re so glad you had fun and enjoyed the food 😊
Our kids and us really enjoyed this activity, we learned a new skill in a relaxing atmosphere and got to taste the fruits of our labor. The teachers were helpful and knowledgeable. It was a good break from the other more physically active activities we were doing on vacation.
Thank you so much! 😊 We’re really happy you and your kids enjoyed the experience and the relaxed atmosphere. It was a pleasure sharing this moment with your family! 👨👩👧👦✨
My husband, son, and I attended this cooking class on 3/17. We had a blast. The food was delicious, and we were being taught by the family's elder (grandma). Grandma gave us a lot of kitchen gems that I plan to use at home, and she taught us a lot regarding food preparation. I highly recommend this tour!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled you and your family had such a great time. It means a lot to hear you enjoyed the food and learned from grandma—she truly loves sharing her knowledge. We hope to welcome you again soon!
Great food and fun experience.
Thank you. It was a pleasure
My daughter and I wanted an “experience” on our trip to San Pedro and this certainly was a great pick! She made shrimp ceviche and I made the lobster ceviche (u pic the seafood u want to use)! We made 3 different papusas and learned much about the mayan culture! Then we got to sit down with all who participated and have a meal of what we had made! Learned about how important the sunshine is to mayans and eggs! and all their cosmetic uses! So much info-the times goes by way too quickly! thank u for an awesome time!!
Thank you so much! 😊 We loved sharing this experience with you and your daughter. It was a pleasure cooking together and talking about Mayan culture. So happy you enjoyed the ceviche, pupusas, and the time around the table. Hope to see you again in San Pedro! 🌞
