About this tour
A three-hour dining experience in Granada where you'll cook and eat paella with a local host in an elegant setting, five minutes from the Cathedral. You'll prepare a traditional Andalusian dish from scratch, then sit down to eat it with all drinks included.

What to expect
You'll arrive at the location near the Cathedral and meet your host. The first part of the experience involves preparing paella together — you'll handle ingredients and cooking under guidance, learning the traditional Andalusian method. This hands-on phase lasts roughly 90 minutes to two hours depending on the dish's complexity.
Once the paella is ready, you'll move to the dining area and eat what you've made together. Drinks are provided throughout — wine, beer, or soft options — and the meal wraps up after you've finished eating, typically around the three-hour mark. The pace is relaxed rather than rushed.

Good to know
This suits anyone wanting to learn cooking in a social setting without the formality of a classroom, particularly those interested in Spanish cuisine or spending time with a local. No cooking experience is needed. The experience is fully wheelchair accessible, and children (including infants in prams) are welcome. If you have food allergies or dietary requirements, you must flag them when booking so the host can adjust ingredients beforehand. The experience runs three hours total, so it's a half-day commitment. Groups sizes aren't specified in the listing — clarify expected group size at booking if this matters to you. All drinks are included; no hidden costs for beverages. The location is walkable from central Granada and near public transport.
