If you are going to do one tour in Cusco, do this one!! Wow! It far exceeded every expectation. Our chef Dael was amazing. We started with a very fun tour of the market and then cooked so many different dishes for over 4 hours. It was incredible! So excited to go home and cook our own ceviche!
This is a must do in Cusco. The experience starts with meeting Chef Dael as he walks you through different aisles of Sam Pedroatker and picks up produce for the meal that you’ll be cooking. It’s about an hour on the Mather and you get a good overview of Andean produce and techniques. After which you walk to the culinary studio and prepare your three course meal. The recipes are unique and flavorful and healthy. You get to make pisco sour, an appetizer and dessert and sop on chica morada in between courses. The group size is small and intimate and you get to learn a lot about Peru in general. Wish we had done it on the first day instead of the last so we would had more time to explore San Pedro market after the tour
Dear Odyssey7, Thanks for your kind words. We are glad to know you liked the tour in San Pedro Market, where you can find many sections with a variety of products. It is also good to know you liked to prepare the dishes with Dael the chef. We are sure you learnt more about Peruvian Culture and enjoyed to try the dishes you prepared In addition, we love to read you had a great time in our class.It was a pleasure to have you here! Thanks a lot for choosing us! Regards, Cusco Culinary
This cooking class was one of my favourite activities from our whole trip - it was well worth making the time in our quick trip to Cusco for! Our guide, Mauricio, was incredibly knowledgeable with experience in high end restaurants and lecturing at universities. He was an excellent teacher, engaging and down-to-earth, and taught us lots about local cuisine and its history. I really enjoyed the market tour - it added a whole new layer of depth to the cooking we did, as we were able to see the many amazing types of local ingredients firsthand and learn all about it and more in a market environment. The cooking school itself is in a really nice quiet building and the space and equipment was very clean and professional. The food we prepared was delicious - and there was so much of it! We made pisco sour, three types of ceviche, capsicum stuffed with a delicious cheesy potato mixture, and about three other dishes - all really tasty and things I wouldn't have tried if it weren't for this experience. Highly recommend Cusco Culinary if you're after a fun experience where you're well looked after with true professionals!

We had an excellent experience with this cooking class. Mauricio did a fantastic job guiding us through the market and sharing valuable tips about what to eat, what to avoid, and what questions to ask to ensure a safe and healthy experience. After the market tour, we walked to a beautiful, well-appointed studio in a great location. Mauricio and his team were welcoming, organized, and made sure everyone had a great time. The food was absolutely delicious, and the entire experience was both fun and educational. We had kids with us, and they had a blast as well. Mauricio was engaging and made the class enjoyable for all ages. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a memorable cooking class.

Amazing cooking class! Mauricio was wonderful - he made sure that the food we made was tweaked to suit everyone's dislikes and allergies. The tour of the San Pedro market was really helpful with some good tips on what to look out for! And the food was AMAZING. This was my favourite activity in Cusco city during my trip :) I would do it again just for the ceviche!!
