I took the Mexican cooking class while vacationing in Cancun last month. Marisol was so kind and knowledgable! We made margaritas, guacamole, salsa, fish al pastor, shrimp ceviche and a special fried dessert. It was a fun, hands-on class, and we enjoyed our hard work with a big meal at the end. They also served wine and beer with the meal. I would definitely recommend this class!

My wife and I spent half a day with Claudia 2 weeks ago while visiting Cancun. Claudia's workshop was about a 40 minute ride from our resort. I could have taken a taxi, bus or hooked up with USA Transfers but instead we accepted an offer by Claudia to pick us up and drop us off in her own car. It was great immediately we got to know each other. She was even kind enough to point out great spots for us to visit and eat at that along the way to her studio. She is a wealth of information. The ride with her alone was well worth what we paid her for the transportation. I have to tell you what she charged was less than all three of the other options and so much better. Once we arrived at our studio, Claudia switched gears and started connecting spiritually to my wife and I. In a short amount of time she taught us breathing techniques and how to deal with some difficult situations life throws at us. Hopefully the lesson will strengthen our relationship. Oh, Claudia also introduced us to some tantra techniques. Again, it was an amazing experience. Beyond that lesson she then proceeded to give my wife and I an truly memorable message. It was one that we will always remember as she showed us both techniques on how to perform a mind blowing massage. At one point there were four hands on each other during each of our massages. All the time the lesson and message were tasteful, respectful, loving and beyond imagination. By the way, prior to meeting Claudia my wife was somewhat apprehensive. But believe me in no time Claudia had all of our trust and respect; we were both truly captivated. My wife said that she felt her body truly elevated. Me, I just melted away! We will be returning to to Riviera Maya November 30th. Claudia already has us penciled in for December 2nd. I guarantee you and your mate will enjoy this massage and lesson more than any you can find at any resort or spa. The massage truly connects your mind body and soul. And the best part is you share it with your mate 100%. Thank you Claudia see you soon xo

Staying at a resort in Cancún, México? Get out and spend a day at Yum Cooking Workshop with Chef Andres! This was by far the highlight our week vacation in Cancún. Staying at a resort has its perks, but let’s face it, they often lack the experience of authentic culture of the area. A day of Chef Andres’ cooking workshop is a perfect way to get a little taste of the Mexican culture. Chef Andres takes you through various courses of traditional recipes, providing a rich history of each dish. Along the way we got to enjoy taking part in preparing some of the dishes such as salsa and empanadas. The tequila and mezcal tasting was a fantastic break, learning more about the history of these spirits, from an impassioned Chef Andres. The pairings with the tequila and mezcal such as pineapple, oranges, limes, chocolate, and chili powder mix were really enjoyable, especially exploring different ways to pair each with the different tequilas. The hospitality and the food were incredible. We loved everything about this unique experience and would highly recommend Yum Cooking Workshop. Getting to the workshop was no problem for the taxi driver, and Chef Andres was very responsive.
