Top Antigua Cooking Classes

If you’re considering a cooking class in Antigua, stop searching and book this one!! This experience was easily one of the highlights of our three-week trip through Guatemala and Belize. From the moment we met Milton, we knew we were in for something special. We unfortunately ran late due to transportation issues, but he was incredibly flexible, accommodating, and gracious, immediately putting us at ease. The experience began with a fascinating walk through the local market, where Milton shared insights about Guatemalan culture, ingredients, and daily life that we never would have learned on our own. His knowledge was impressive, but what truly stood out was the way he shared it—with genuine passion, warmth, and humility. The property where the class took place (his house) was absolutely stunning, providing the perfect setting for an unforgettable afternoon. Milton’s son Diego was the perfect sous chef, and Milton helped guide us through the preparation while keeping everything fun and relaxed. Every dish we made was delicious, but the experience was about so much more than the food. Milton has a beautiful aura and one of the calmest, kindest personalities of anyone we’ve met while traveling. Conversation flowed naturally, and by the end of the class we felt like we had spent the day with a friend rather than a teacher. From the market tour to the final meal, every detail was thoughtfully planned and expertly executed. We left with full stomachs, new skills, a deeper appreciation for Guatemala, and wonderful memories we’ll talk about for years. Thank you, Milton and Diego, for such a stellar experience. If you’re visiting Antigua, this is an absolute must-do. I’d give this experience 10 stars if I could. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
