What an awesome time learning sooo many new recipes! We loved being in her home with her company.

I recently had the pleasure of attending an authentic Mexican cooking class, and I must say, it was an absolute delight! From start to finish, the experience exceeded my expectations and left me with a newfound appreciation for the vibrant and rich flavors of Mexican cuisine. First and foremost, the instructor was fantastic. Her passion for Mexican cooking was contagious, and she created a warm and welcoming environment for everyone in the class. She was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also patient and attentive, ensuring that each participant felt comfortable and engaged throughout the session. Overall, my authentic Mexican cooking class was an exceptional experience that I wholeheartedly recommend. Whether you're a seasoned cook or a complete beginner, this class offers a wonderful opportunity to dive into the world of Mexican cuisine and learn from passionate experts. Prepare to be amazed by the flavors, captivated by the stories, and inspired to bring a taste of Mexico into your own kitchen. It truly deserves a resounding five-star rating!

Lily welcomed us into her beautiful home to show us how to cook authentic mexican food, and everything about the experience was amazing! The food was delicious, and lily gave wonderful explanations and demonstrations of everything too, complete with great music. 10/10 would recommend. She made us feel like family!

I wish I could rate this more than 5 stars! My husband and I had the best time doing this cooking class. Lily was warm and welcoming, and we learnt so much about Mexican food. We enjoyed getting our hands dirty and making tortillas. We were so full afterwards, stuffing ourselves with the tacos, quesadillas and salsas that we made.

I had the best time! Thank you for an awesome experience...i will definitely spread the word about this tour. And thank you for making my birthday a memorable day.

It was a great cooking class. We felt like home when we arrived and we cooked the best mexican food. We would totally do it again when we go back. We highly recommend this class.

Eric was not only an amazing host but incredible cook! We wanted to experience authentic techniques and recipes that we could take home and do ourselves, and we certainly got that. It was the best food we have had in mexico in ten days visiting, so fresh flavoursome and yet so simple. I cant wait to try when we get home and cant thank Eric enough!! A must do in Tulum!!!

From the first moment we arrived at Lily's house, we were welcomed as if we were family. What Lily offers is not just a cooking class, it's a total immersion in her story. Recipes from her childhood with her mother and grandmother to the story surrounding some of the most authentic dishes of Mexican and Mayan cuisine, Lily is an inspiration and we haven’t seen the time passed as it was so captivating! Whether it was by learning how to make handmade tortilla, tasting mezcal the traditional way or all the wonderful dishes we've cooked, our experience was perfect. All the dishes were so tasty, we can’t wait to redo them at home to remind us of this unforgettable moment! We also fell in love with Canello, the rescue dog of Lily who is a true fan of quesadilla;)! If you want to taste real Mexican food and live an authentic culinary moment, you must definitely take Lily's cooking class.

We'll return home with new understanding of what goes into a good salsa!

I went with my husband to learn some simple Mexican recipes we could take back to Europe. Lily and her family were really welcoming and we had an enjoyable evening. Lily explained about Mexican ingredients and cooking styles in a knowledgable yet fun style. We would really recommend to anyone.

Lily and her family were gracious, welcoming, and wonderful hosts. Lily was funny and humble. She took the time to go through the historical background of everything that was made and every ingredient we used. Her son Alex and his girlfriend Paola were super nice and welcoming as well. Lily chose a menu that would be easily recreatable back home and she promised to email all recipes and even Skype is if something didn't make sense. Amazing hospitality!

This cooking class was so worth it! I enjoyed how Chef Tejada sticks to the traditional ways of preparing Mexican food. He is also very very informative and loves to share his knowledge. We had tequila tasting after cooking and paired them with fun condiments like chocolate, fruits and grasshoppers! Yes dried grasshoppers but they are completely safe. The food at the end of the cooking class was so delicious!! I would definitely attend this class again. I think this experience is a must in Cancun!
