Top Mexico City Cooking Classes

Chef Pame was the star of the show during this outstanding cooking class. There were vegetarian and gluten-free options available. We started with an appetizer and agua fresca while Pame introduced us to evolution of Mexican cuisine. She then guided us through Mercado Medellín, which included samples of fresh tortillas, chocolate, insects, and local fruits. Upon returning, Pame's energy was infectious. She provided high-energy, educational, and hands-on guidance to all the prep stations. We made sopes, tortillas, salsa roja and verde, mextlapiques, mole blanco, and pan de elote. Everything was delicious, and we made salsas of varying spice levels. I've had the pleasure of taking several cooking classes around the world, and Pame's class was easily my favorite. I left with an appreciation and understanding of the cultural significance of Mexican cuisine. Pame's love for her country, cooking, and profession were inspiring. We can't wait to plan a return visit to Mexico City to take another class with Pame!

Did this food tour with Tania on our day 1 in CDMX .We had a wonderful introduction to the city . She was equally passionate about the food scene and the city and we learned a lot . She was also very engaging and kept our group of 7 interested the whole time ! Can’t recommend her enough . Thank you Tania

Awesome experience, Jose was amazing! Go hungry, there’s no shortage of food, you’ll leave stuffed! Jose takes the time to personalize the meal to each person’s preferences and was held in a very cool century-old apartment building! Weird booking glitch, nothing to do with Jose. Kept getting notifications from TripAdvisor that booking had been cancelled while at the same time receiving reminders from Viator when and where to meet. We showed up anyway hoping TripAdvisor was wrong and glad we did!

Natalia was a great host! We had some scrumptious food that represented a great variety of Mexican cuisine. The group size was not too big or too small. Natalia was super knowledgeable and kind and made sure everyone had a wonderful experience! The pace was perfect - not too rushed or too slow. We did take a good 4-4 1/2 hours.

This cooking class offered an intimate and authentic cooking experience. You were allowed in the hosts' home, shown beautiful art. Music was available and the meals were straight forward and easy to follow. You will be engrossed in a slice of Mexican culture and see the day to day experience of a home chef. It was peaceful, fun and enjoyable. If you are looking for a raw and fun experience. Book this experience.

One of the highlights of my trip to Mexico City. We visited a local market, purchased authentic ingredients, and made tortillas, salsa, guacamole, ceviche, and margaritas from scratch. Great instructor, great food, and lots of fun. I left with a full stomach, new skills, and a deeper appreciation for Mexican culture. Highly recommend!

Alphonso was such an incredible tour guide! We lucked out and got a private tour with him, and his archaeological and historical knowledge was astounding. We had a great time learning about the history of Mexico with him, discussing art and pottery, and our shared love of coffee! He went above and beyond and gave us a 3.5 hour tour, because he kept remembering important objects he wanted to share with us. We would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone! It gave especially important context to the museum that you just wouldn't get without a guide.

We were guided by Valentin, Amistad and Andres. Safety was their priority and ensured that we were able to weave through the busy streets of Mexico City with ease. The route, the food experience, the historical insights from the guides were all amazing! This is the tour and the guides to book with!
