Make Paella & Make Friends too! - Carmen was a fantastic guide. She made all feel welcome & expertly guided us through the market. She was always smiling and laughing and was the perfect partner for our chef Alba. Both really did an excellent job of teaching us about Paella & Sangria while at the same time creating a community between all 16 participants. Highly recommend!

Delicious and fun class - Around sixteen people took the class. Everyone was very friendly. We walked to the food market nearby with Carmen and were taught how to make sangria and cook paella with Alba. We also enjoyed tasting various olive oils and were treated to fresh churros made by Alba at the end of the class.

Learning, laughing, cooking - what fun! - A wonderful addition to travel! Learning about local food opens doors to learning so much more. The olive oil tasting showed me which types to use for different applications. The cooking itself was hands on, with fresh seafood and vegetables.
The facility is well appointed and sparkling clean - all is provided.
I was impressed at the instructor's depth of knowledge. Alba created a collaborative environment so that by the time we were finished, we traded contact information so to share results of our paella made at home.
Add this to your itinerary - a terrific evening's entertainment!

Great Paella Cooking Class - We did a paella cooking class in Málaga this morning, hosted by guide Javi and chef Pepe, and it exceeded all expectations.
The class started with a visit to the local market, where Javi, a true foodie, shared great insights about Spanish cuisine and local ingredients. We got to taste some amazing regional products and olive oils (Spanish olive farmers often supply the “Italian” olive products in northern Europe supermarkets)
Back at the modern, beautifully equipped kitchen, chef Pepe led the cooking session flawlessly; calm, skilled, and fun, keeping everyone engaged while we cooked paella, made sangria and even prepared churros.
The food turned out fantastic, the atmosphere was good and relaxed, and the experience felt both authentic and professional.
Highly recommended. 100% worth it. Big thanks to Javi and Pepe for a real good experience!

Muchas gracias Javi i Pepe!

Good fun but terrible communication about the correct meeting location - After waiting nearly 20 minutes at the meeting point and finally getting a response to our multiple inquiries via the Viator app, we were informed that we were at an old meeting point. We had checked the Viator app multiple times before leaving our accommodations and there was nothing about a change in the meeting location. Once we heard back from Jose he was helpful in getting us to the correct location to join the group. But we missed the first 40 minutes of the tour. Jose told us this has happened multiple times before and it wasn’t our fault. Very disappointing that Viator and/or the vendor aren’t doing a good job of keeping their customers informed of the correct meeting location.
