Bienvenido! to Josefina's Cocina con Alama. "Alma" the word for soul in Spanish is how authentic Mexican cooking begins. We invite you to explore and taste the many wonders of Mexcian cuisine through hands-on instruction with the wonderful cook & chef, Josefina. Join Josefina in her Cozumel home and kitchen for a day to learn how to make regional Yucatecan delights as well as other Mexican dishes. The class is designed for those that want a "taste" of Mexican culture (you will even get to visit the local market). It is set up for all ages to enjoy, yet comprehensive enough for those avid cooks looking to hone and learn new skills. Be prepared to eat as you will cook a feast suited for the Mayan gods!

We enjoyed learning how to make all our favorite dishes including refried frijoles, nopales salad, homemade tortillas, guacamole, mayan squash, margaritas and our favorite, achiote marinade. Josephina and her assistant are warm and inviting and very knowledgeable. My husband and I enjoyed the 5 hours we spent cooking and learning with Josephina. We will definitely take another class the next time we are in Cozumel.

The most demanded and oldest word-of-mouth Mexican cuisine cooking class on Cozumel. You will spend a wonderful time from start to end and lots of fun. Meet the Mexican chef who will guide you through the art and fun of preparing an exquisite three-course Mexican meal. Once you finish your creation, enjoy it, along with a well-deserved savory cocktail, at a private oceanfront dining room in great company and with a terrific view.

This is definitely a must do if you've ever had any interest in doing a cooking class (both my husband and I cook often but thought this would be something different to do). The day started off slow (first we had to wait for a bus which was not in the best years of it's life and then we had to wait additional time for the chef because he was "very busy") but once they called us in, it was so fun! You're in a building overlooking the ocean while you cook. The chef and assistance were VERY amusing and a lot of fun! We made an appetizer, main course and dinner. When we were done we went upstairs to enjoy what we made and when we were done we were free to do what we wanted for the remainder of the time. Next time we come back to Cozumel, I will definately come back! Such a fun time!!

Saskia, a Reiki Master, is a highly gifted and experienced healer, and a very special human being. Her truth and honesty make her shine out with love and wisdom (not exaggerating). She has helped me through one of the most challenging periods of my life. For 2 months now, I have 5 distant sessions per week (we live in different countries). Amazingly, these sessions have helped to start healing a “health condition” that does not have a cure according to traditional medicine. Those sessions also have guided me to bring healing and balance back into my awareness and my life. Her ability is natural and she is helping me heal on the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of my life. This is one of the best things that I have done for myself. I am so glad and happy I found Saskia, and my live is heading back to balance again. I feel blessed! Thank you Saskia Saskia, maestra Reiki, es una sanadora muy dotada y experimentada, y un ser humano muy especial. Su sentido de verdad y honestidad hacen que irradie amor y sabiduría (no estoy exagerando). Me ha ayudado a superar uno de los períodos más difíciles de mi vida. Desde hace 2 meses, tengo 5 "sesiones a distancia" por semana (vivimos en diferentes países). Sorprendentemente, estas sesiones me han ayudado a iniciar la sanacion de una "condición de salud" que no tiene cura de acuerdo a la medicina tradicional. Estas sesiones también me han guiado para traer la sanacion de manera consiente, y el equilibrio de nuevo a mi vida. Su habilidad es natural y me está ayudando a sanar aspectos físicos, mentales, emocionales y espirituales de mi vida. Esta es una de las mejores cosas que he hecho por mí misma. Estoy totalmente complacida y feliz de haber encontrado a Saskia. Mi vida y salud estan teniendo de nuevo un equilibrio. ¡Me siento bendecida! Gracias Saskia

We recommend getting the whole package and making sure Martin is your guide! We did the museum guided tour, the chocolate making tour and lunch. All in all we spent about 3 hours, but we could have stayed much longer. Martin is a wealth of knowledge and he is happy to answer questions while teaching TONS about Mexican culture, history and geography. Just an amazing guide! He also took great photos for us throughout the park... above and beyond service for sure. The chocolate was a delight! We made our own bars while we were spoiled with chocolate drinks (they can make with or without alcohol) and treats! We were given homemade mole and chocolate dipped candies. Lunch was also amazing! Perfectly seasoned grilled chicken “street” tacos with fresh guacamole, salsa and corn chips... I’m still full! Please don’t miss this tour! The detail they have put into this museum is just wonderful ????

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. First, the staff are amazing! Tony was very educated and very passionate about what he does. We ended up watching a movie in the Dome and it was absolutely incredible!! The imaging, the sound, everything was beyond our expectations. Second, do not be afraid to make the small trip out to this place. It is not that far from town and it is a must do!!! I was bummed our itinerary did not allow us time do participate in the star gazing because I'm sure it would have been incredible. I will definitely be doing that the next time I am in Cozumel. Also, for those that are worried about Covid19, they take all the necessary precautions to ensure you and your travel companions are safe. This is definitely a business everyone should continue to support during these difficult times. Thanks again to the staff & Tony who allowed us to come in for a private viewing! ????
