Absolutely a MUST DO! This class takes you on a tour of the Russafa market to buy fresh, local ingredients for the paella you will be cooking. Once the ingredients are purchased you head to the kitchen (a short walk) and have tapas and sangria. Then the paella cooking begins. This is a very hands on class with lots of laughs and some history on the region. You will absolutely love the hosts and their energy! The best way to enjoy paella is to cook it, not to just order in a restarant. Definitely this experience is one I will remember!

I am from the United States, and I have spent the last three months traveling around Europe with a school group. We have been to Iceland, England, Scotland, Italy, and, now Spain. Out of all the experinces I have had (all the restaurants I’ve been to, all the tours I´ve been guided through), perhaps the most authentic, joy-filled, interactive time was spent at My First Paella. The gentlemen who ran the establishment were amazing to be around. Definitely recommend if you want to have a night filled laughter, good food, and great community!

Highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants a wonderful paella making experience! I’do this experience again if my friends want to learn how to make paella. I’ve learned a lot about paella history and how to make proper paella from this experience. Also made friends with other guest as paella cooking is a team work effort! Super fun and the chef was super knowledgable and entertaiming. It’s not only a regular cooking lesson. The chef was really fluent in guiding us how to prepare for the ingredients and each steps and it was really fun making paella as a group. It was the best paella I’ve ver had!!!!
