Super fun experience, but a bit rushed. They tried to fit a LOT into a three hour period. Make margaritas, make salsa, make guac, dance, make tortillas, eat tacos, learn a tequila history lesson.While all of it was entertaining, none of it was able to be fully enjoyed as we rushed from activity to activity.Would still highly recommend.

Karina was amazing! She had so much energy and really immersed us in her culture through food, music and storytelling. I really enjoyed myself. Jorje gave a great tequila tasting with rich history as well! And the one man band, Josh, was awesome! He was a great singer and drummer that kept the energy up and going! Highly recommend!!

Our group had a wonderful experience with Cookin’ Cabo, hosted by Karina. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. It’s a lovely family-run experience, filled with care and hospitality.We enjoyed the cooking and tequila-tasting experiences. We started with delicious mole and several kinds of chocolate, then made salsa, guacamole, and fresh corn tortillas. We squeezed limes to make our own margaritas, and they were amazing! We danced the night away, too, Josh was a fantastic DJ and kept the mood light!To finish the evening, Jorge led an informative tequila tasting. We sampled blanco, reposado, añejo, extra añejo, and tequila crema, and learned so much along the way.Everyone made us feel right at home. We highly recommend Cookin’ Cabo for a fun, welcoming, and authentic taste of Cabo!

I spent 4 days in Cabo for vacation and this was easily the best experience I had . The taste of authentic Mexican tacos from all over the different municipalities of Mexico all in on experience was amazing. Karina, Miguel and Jorge provided a warm and inviting energy as well as a robust history lesson on cacao, food and tequila ! Would recommend to anyone and everyone who comes to Los Cabos !

The COOKIN' family
Discover Authentic Mexico, One Bite at a Time
Our journey began in 2012 with Cookin' Vallarta and a simple idea: to share the Mexico we love through food, family, and hands-on cooking.
What started as a small family business was also a way to create something that allowed us to spend more quality time with the people we love—our spouses, children, and parents.
Over the years, that personal dream grew into a shared mission: to be proud ambassadors of Mexico, its people, and its culture. We believe one of the best ways to experience Mexico is to cook it, taste it, and share it.
That is why our hands-on Mexican cooking classes go beyond recipes. We introduce travelers to authentic ingredients, traditional techniques, local markets, and the stories behind the food—creating an experience that feels personal, welcoming, and genuinely Mexican.
The COOKIN' Family
In 2015, our family grew with the launch of Juan More Taco Tours in Cabo San Lucas. As our passion for sharing Mexico through food continued to grow, so did the COOKIN' family, bringing hands-on Mexican cooking experiences to new destinations across Mexico.
Today, the COOKIN' family spans Vallarta, Los Cabos, San José, Playa del Carmen, and Cancún. Behind each destination is a team of chefs and guides who are more than colleagues—we are friends, family, and people who have grown together through the years.
Some of us are connected by blood. Others became family through friendship, shared experiences, and a common love for Mexico and its food.
Wherever you join us, you'll find the same spirit at the heart of COOKIN': authentic food, genuine hospitality, and a team that loves sharing Mexico with the people who come to experience it.
Join us on a culinary journey and experience the true taste of Mexico, just like the locals do.
