Excellent and fun! - Carmen was a fabulous guide. She took us through the market stopping at a favourite kiosk allowing us to taste a variety of olives, nuts, sun dried tomatoes and figs. In the kitchen, chef Alba, walked us through making roasted pepper salad, sangria, paella and churros. Her instructions were clear and detailed. Our food was outstanding.

History, food and great chat - A fantastic experience. Elise gave us a great insight into the history of the market and the Malaga people. She knew a lot about local produce and explained in an interesting and engaging way. Our Chef Alba was amazing- her knowledge of food, flavour and hospitality was second to none. The chat great and we met like minded people from around the world with an interest in culture and food. Would highly recommend this.

So fun! An absolute must. - 5 stars? I’d give it 6.0 if I could, all thanks to the standout team that made our experience unforgettable. Highlights Javi – our guide: extraordinary warmth and expertise. From the moment we booked, he reached out a day ahead to confirm parking and meeting details, which immediately put us at ease. If you’re driving yourself, there is a parking garage about a 5 minute walk to the class itself. And if taking the bus, the stop is about the same distance as well. Javi’s friendly demeanor and deep knowledge created a welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home. Alba – overseeing Chef: a masterclass in culinary storytelling. Alba walked us through the ingredients with great clarity, explaining not just what each component did, but why it mattered in the dish. Her explanations were detailed and engaging, and she remained incredibly friendly and supportive throughout. Her passion for the cuisine shone through in every step of the class. Overall impression Having traveled to many places around the world, I can honestly say this ranks among the very best local tours and cooking experiences I’ve ever had. The combination of Javi’s hospitality and Alba’s culinary guidance created a perfect, memorable experience from start to finish. The paella is unbelievable as well as the churros for dessert!! Thank you again, Javi and Alba for an outstanding day. We’ll be recommending this to everyone we know.

Make Paella & Make Friends too! - Carmen was a fantastic guide. She made all feel welcome & expertly guided us through the market. She was always smiling and laughing and was the perfect partner for our chef Alba. Both really did an excellent job of teaching us about Paella & Sangria while at the same time creating a community between all 16 participants. Highly recommend!
