Private Cooking Class in Traditional Andalusian Housing

About this tour

Master authentic Andalusian cooking in a traditional home with a chef who's spent 45 years perfecting regional recipes. This five-hour class starts at a local market where you'll select fresh ingredients, then moves to a centuries-old kitchen to learn genuine dishes that go well beyond the tourist stereotypes of paella and sangria. You'll cook, eat, and drink your way through a proper education in southern Spanish food culture.

Highlights

• Shop at working local market with your chef guide
• Cook in a traditional Andalusian house, not a commercial kitchen
• Learn from a chef with four decades of professional experience
• Taste authentic regional recipes, not tourist versions
• Three-course lunch with wine and local drinks included
• Hotel pickup and drop-off both ways

What to expect

After hotel collection, you'll head to a neighbourhood market to source ingredients alongside your guide—expect to handle vegetables, cured meats, and fish as locals do. The cooking happens in an actual traditional home rather than a purpose-built studio, which means tighter quarters and genuine kitchen rhythms. Your chef will walk you through each dish step-by-step, with time to ask questions and watch techniques up close. There's structure, but it's relaxed; you're learning by doing, not lecturing. Lunch arrives fresh from the stove, eaten in the home with wine and local spirits. By the end, you'll have made several dishes from scratch.
