Don't miss this opportunity! - Our family had a GREAT experience!!! Dana and Astrid were super nice, patient and helpful. We learned a lot about colombian food, but also about the country's culture. I would recommend it without a doubt!!!

Amaizing authentic experience! - It was a great, authentic experience! The chef and the sous-chef, who did the English translation, led the class with great attention to detail, were kind to everyone, and had a good sense of humor. There was nice background music, and we all danced in the kitchen during the wait time while frying. We were proud of the meals we cooked and enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the end.

Food for Thought - Great food and very friendly. It is a real Colombian experience. They say 2 hours but that is just for cooking. Plan to hang around an extra hour to eat and enjoy the company.

Cartagena Cooking Experience - I highly recommend this cooking class. There was a chef and an assistant who spoke English. The two ladies for fun and helped us. They would demonstrate and each set of people had a work station to complete the same thing. They allowed us to video so we could remember how to do things once we got home. They emailed us the recipes. The evening ended with us eating the meal we cooked. I am so glad we did this cooking class in the old part of Cartagena.

Foodie Fun in Cartagena! - From the moment we arrived we were treated very kindly and professionally to create authentic cuisine of Cartagena, Colombia!!! Just what we were looking for and more! The chef and guide were truly fantastic at assisting us with a gentle manner and personalities plus! Every step was clear and simple enough for the most novice of the group. We laughed, sang, and danced to salsa music together. Just fabulous! We highly recommend this cooking experience to anyone who desires a fun and memorable experience for your group! Thank you and salute! Cheers from California, New Hampshire, and Nevada! The Berenguer family

Must do experience - Absolutely amazing experience, a must do in Cartagena! I've done several cooking classes around the world and this one is one of the best. Attentive stuff, every step explained well, everything is paced to make sure nobody is bored but all get attention. Extremely lovely chef and su-chef (our translator as well). The meal we cooked was delicious and so easy to cook back home. We danced, took pictures, got to know each other over a meal - all in all 10 out of 10, really made our visit special.
