EXCELLENT Based on 166 reviews Posted on Sean KVerified 11/10 experience This was truly such a gem of an activity to do while you’re visiting Antigua. Milton is so incredibly knowledgeable about Guatemalan food, and tailors the experience so perfectly for all travelers. Starting the tour in the market was such a treat, especially to be able to get such quality description of everything around us. The cooking class was amazing and hosted on a beautiful rooftop terrace and the food was amazing. Would 11/10 recommend!Posted on Erin CVerified Highly recommend! A friend recommended this tour after doing it on a previous trip, so my friends and I came in with pretty high expectations, and it completely delivered. The market was one of the highlights. Our guide, Milton, shared so much about Guatemalan culture, ingredients, and everyday life, and it never felt scripted or rushed. I learned a lot while still just having a really fun morning walking through the market. The cooking class was also great because it was hands-on without being overwhelming. There was enough chopping and cooking to feel involved, but also plenty of time to relax and enjoy the food and conversation. It was such a nice way to get to know Guatemala through its cuisine. I’d absolutely recommend this experience to anyone visiting.Posted on Shayam PVerified Fantastic food & views Milton was awesome. The market tour was a special highlight of our trip, followed by the incredible cooking class & meal at the cooking school rooftop with a beautiful view of Antigua & the volcanos. Couldn’t recommend this more.Posted on Nienke PVerified Geweldig! Het was een fantastische dag! Milton is heel gastvrij en enthousiast. De markttour was heel leuk en het eten heerlijk. Op het dakterras waar je kookt heb je schitterend uitzicht. De groepsgrootte is perfect, het was top!Posted on Ivana Nicole ŠVerified One of my favorite experiences I have ever done Had an amazing experience with Milton and his crew at his lovely home. The experience started at the market with a lot of interesting and important information about the food like the meats, fruits and vegetables. After the market, we went by tuk tuks to his home, and started cooking. It was one of my favorite experiences I have ever done! I can’t recommend it enough. Milton is so lovely and so kind, informational and showed us his family recipes which were all so delicious. Highly recommend if you love learning about different cultures, food and cooking!Posted on Tangela CVerified Cooking class Very pleasant. Excellent experiencePosted on Cindy MVerified Extra special experience We had a wonderful experience cooking with Milton! A truly authentic experience from the beginning to the end. We were able to learn so much about Guatemalan culture and cooking. Thank you for making our stay in Antigua extra special! Food was 10/10 and experience was as well.Posted on Kaitlyn HVerified Fun class, delicious food Very fun class! The food was delicious and Milton was great. The group was fun as well and I loved learning to make these foods. My only complaint is I would have loved to get the recipes!Posted on Kara SVerified Top Notch Market Tour & Cooking Class My husband 2 boys ( ages 21 & 16) and I got to experience Milton’s amazing hospitality. His love for Antigua- the culture, the people and food was so evident in his class. We all learned several new techniques and delicious recipes. The market tour was out of this world too. So cool to get the inside scoop and see it from a locals perspective. Thank you Milton for the great experience!Posted on Casey PVerified One of a Kind Experience Milton was the nicest and so welcoming! He answered any and all questions during the market tour and while cooking in his home. Delicious food, great company, and a one of a kind experience into Guatemalan culture ❤️
