We spent the day learning how to cook Mexican food use knives, and enjoy the culinary arts of Mexican cuisine I would definitely recommend this to my friends and other visitors. It is a long day perhaps too long. We did a lot of standing. And the chairs did not have backs . A very friendly and casual atmosphere and the staff are very helpful. If I come to Cancun again, I will bring my friends and family. The flavors were amazing. The ceviche was to die for,and the flan was superb.
Alajandra is the best. She was very warm and personable. She taught with excellence in knowledge and technique while we were allowed to learn while getting our fingers into the action. You don’t sit and watch, you do. The kitchen is amazing, the grounds are stunning and the food was beyond excellent. The highlight or our trip.
Great experience to learn the Mayan history and culture carried through hundreds of years. Chef Ali did a great job explaining everything, teaching us delicious recipes. Definitely recommend this trip.
Our experience was world class and one we will always treasure. The chef Ale not only passed along her passion for cooking but also invited us into her family. She has a clear gift in the world of cooking but also a drive to share that with others. This it a must stop for all foodies and those who want to learn more about mexico, it's traditions, and its food!
A wonderful day spent in a jungle setting with our host Alejandra and her lovely helpers including the delightful Paula! Learning about the history of Mayan culture and cooking was a pleasure. We made tortillas, soup and a stew all under Alejandra’s watchful eye. She provides great context and helpful hints all along the way. And of course the best thing is getting to enjoy all the wonderful food for lunch! Highly recommend this day for any food lovers interested in authentic Mexican cooking. Thank you for a lovely time!

We enjoyed a fantastic day at the Mexico Lindo Cooking School! The food was delicious! The eco-garden was amazing, and the hands-on chopping and cooking was fun and informative. They are very sensitive and resourceful regarding food allergies/dietary restrictions. Highly recommend you include this in your trip to Cancun, Playa del Carmen or Puerto Morelos. It's a very special experience.
What an amazing experience. My wife and I had a blast spending the day here and learning to cook. Highly recommend this cooking tour. Staff was friendly and very interactive.
