From Oaxaca city: Traditional Cooking Class with UNESCO Chef

Immerse yourself in the living heritage of Mexican cuisine with a hands-on cooking class guided by an authentic traditional cook whose family recipes carry over 500 years of history. This is more than a cooking lesson—it’s an encounter with Mexico’s culinary soul, recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.

You’ll prepare iconic dishes entirely from scratch, including rich, complex moles, delicate tamales wrapped in corn husks, and velvety hot chocolate prepared with traditional grinding methods. All ingredients are organic and freshly harvested in the surrounding community, offering an unforgettable farm-to-table experience free of processed fats and additives.

Beyond cooking, you’ll also discover the artistry behind Mexico’s textile traditions. Visit a family-run workshop where generations have mastered the backstrap loom and natural dye techniques using local plants and minerals, preserving centuries-old knowledge in every woven piece.

Finally, marvel at the legendary Tule Tree—considered the biggest and oldest tree on earth. Stand beneath its massive canopy and feel the connection between Mexico’s natural wonders and its cultural traditions.
