Dry season fills these up and the best go first. Here are the 4 to look at, with current prices, pickup arrangements and the one thing that usually decides it.
3-hour cooking class in Santa Cruz la Laguna, Lake Atitlan, with Mayan and Spanish-influenced dishes, lunch, and take-home recipes.
“Het was een hele leuke activiteit om kennis te maken met de Guatemalteekse en Mayakeuken. Hierbij kregen we ook wat meer informatie over hun cultuur. De zoon was Engelse Gids en hij heeft ons veel verteld. Er werd één gerecht gemaakt wat heel erg lekker smaakte!”
Learn the Mayan roots of cocoa, use your senses to taste Guatemalan chocolate processes, roast and grind beans, then take home your bar.
“Ingrid was exceptionally helpful and informative! My family does not speak Spanish but she was patient and interactive to help me translate for them. Overall we had a great experience. Muchísimas gracias”
Hand-grind corn on a pedernal stone, cook classic Guatemalan dishes with a local family, and take home recipes in Antigua.
“The cooking class was amazing. Maritza met me outside my hotel and soon after we went to the market where she got fresh products for the lunch. We took a chicken bus over to her place and started cooking Pepián! She was extremely kind, and offered Jamaica and her homemade chips with beans and queso. I also had the chance to make some tortillas which was a fun experience as well. Her entire family is so kind and i recommend this cooking class to everyone!!!”
