4-Hour Market Visit and Traditional Cooking Workshop in Palma

About this tour

A four-hour session in Palma where you browse the market with a local guide, then cook traditional Mallorcan dishes in a working kitchen. You'll learn recipes from small-scale producers and farmers who supply the ingredients, eat what you've prepared, and take home both the recipes and unused materials to recreate the meals back home. It's a direct connection to how islanders actually eat, built on respect for the people who grow and make the food.

Highlights

• Browse Palma's market with a guide who knows the producers
• Hands-on cooking of traditional Mallorcan dishes
• Two glasses of wine included with lunch
• Take home recipes and leftover ingredients
• Meet small farmers and artisanal makers behind the food
• Eat the meal you've cooked together

What to expect

You'll spend roughly an hour walking through the market, stopping to talk with stallholders and learning which produce is seasonal and why certain ingredients matter to local cooking. Then you move to the kitchen for a proper workshop—not a demo where you watch, but hands-on prep and cooking of a meal built around what you've just seen. You'll eat what you've made, share two glasses of wine, and leave with written recipes plus any leftover ingredients so you can recreate the dishes at home. Expect practical instruction pitched at mixed abilities, and a genuine sense that you're learning how Mallorcans actually cook rather than a tourist version of it.
