About this tour
Work through the fundamentals of paella-making on a Seville rooftop with a local chef who guides you through building layers of flavour—saffron rice, chicken, vegetables—whilst the city unfolds below. You'll prepare a full dish to eat, learn sangría technique over 30 minutes of Q&A, and walk away with recipes and the confidence to recreate both at home. Ninety minutes total.

What to expect
You'll arrive to a welcome drink and light appetisers, then move straight to the cooking station. The chef demonstrates each step—toasting rice, layering stock, timing the saffron bloom—before you replicate it. Expect hands-on chopping, stirring, and problem-solving; this isn't passive watching. Once your paella hits the table, you eat it together with sangría you've just made. The final 30 minutes is open discussion: storage tips, scaling for dinner parties, substituting proteins or vegetables. Casual, practical, no plated theatre.
Good to know
The kitchen sits on the third floor with stairs only—no lift access. Wear comfortable clothes you don't mind getting ingredient splatter on. Public transport stops nearby if you're not driving. Arrive 10 minutes early. Tipping is not included in the price.
