4hr Cooking Class in Cuenca with Traditional Andean Recipes

4 hours

Easy

Roll up your sleeves authentic recipes in Cuenca, laugh with locals, and feast together — without tourist traps, even if you’ve never cooked before.
In this experience, you’re the chef.

Step inside a real Cuenca home and roll up your sleeves as a local chef guides you to prepare a full three-course meal using fresh, regional ingredients from Ecuador’s southern Andes.

This behind-the-scenes access means you don’t just learn how to cook, you understand why it matters, and how each ingredient carries history from the Andes to your plate.

For travelers who crave authenticity, this is the kind of experience you simply can’t book at restaurants or markets.

It’s an intimate cultural exchange, perfect for those who value connection over crowds.

You’ll leave with more than recipes to recreate back home for friends and family, you’ll carry stories of heritage, local secrets for exploring Cuenca’s food scene, and the rare memory of being welcomed as part of an Andean household.

This is an experience we guarantee will be five stars, because if it’s not, we’ll give you your money back.
