This experience blends the best of Brazilian culture—cuisine, cocktails, and dance—into one unforgettable activity. Unlike a typical cooking class, here you’ll not only learn to prepare a traditional moqueca from scratch, but also shake up three different flavors of caipirinhas and learn the joyful moves of samba in a fun, relaxed setting. What makes this activity truly unique is the energy, warmth, and rhythm of Brazil, shared in an authentic, interactive way. You’re not just observing—you’re fully immersed: tasting, dancing, laughing, and connecting with fellow travelers and locals alike. From the tropical aromas of the kitchen to the beats of samba and the cheers over your handmade cocktails, this is a multisensory journey into the heart of Brazilian culture—served with joy and a personal touch you won’t find anywhere else.

I loved the experience! Hostess Renata welcomed us with great joy and sympathy! In class, we learned how to make 3 delicious caipirinhas with Brazilian fruits and a wonderful moqueca! Added to the experience, we had an amazing samba class with a passist dressed like at the carnival. It was amazing, lively and very fun! I loved it!
An incredible experience made with mastery by Renata and her wonderful team, where we had the opportunity to experience the flavors of Brazil with a delicious fish moqueca and also to make our own caipirinha... shake shake shake shake shake shake! Jajajaja In addition, we experienced a samba class with a passista who infected the Mood with her dance
Absolutely unforgettable! 🙌 Renata's cooking class was one of the best experiences I’ve had in Rio. From the moment we arrived, she made us feel like family. We learned how to make a delicious moqueca (seriously, restaurant-level!), sipped on endless caipirinhas 🍹, and ended the day dancing samba like true cariocas! 💃 Renata is not just a great cook, she’s the soul of the experience — warm, funny, and full of amazing stories about Brazilian culture. The location is stunning, and the atmosphere is full of joy and flavor. If you’re visiting Rio, don’t miss this. It’s more than a cooking class — it’s a celebration of Brazil! 🇧🇷
This Brazilian cooking class was one of the best experiences I had in Rio! We were warmly welcomed into a beautiful, authentic setting where we learned to prepare a delicious homemade Brazilian lunch from scratch. The ingredients were fresh, the instructions easy to follow, and the food turned out amazing! But what really made the experience stand out were the three different caipirinhas, each with a unique and tropical twist. Learning how to mix them was just as fun as drinking them! To top it all off, after lunch we enjoyed a lively and interactive samba session. Even if you've never danced before, the energy is infectious and you'll find yourself smiling and moving to the rhythm in no time. This experience offers the perfect mix of culture, flavor, music, and great company. It’s a must for anyone looking to connect with the true spirit of Brazil in a fun and memorable way!
