Top Central Valley Classes & Workshops

Join Chef Scott Alan and his local chefs for a fun and entertaining afternoon of Costa Rican cooking while learning how to make delicious tropical dishes and cocktails. You can participate in the meal creation or choose to sit back, relax and watch. On a clear day, you’ll see amazing views of Arenal Volcano in the relaxed atmosphere while preparing and tasting your meals. Learn new techniques in a pura vida atmosphere, enjoy amazing views and make sure to bring your binoculars and camera because toucans are spotted on a daily basis.

This is the best way to experience the idyllic beauty and local traditions of our country. Your local tour guide will show you all the historic sites of Ciudad Colon and then he will invite you to his house. He is a well known Costa Rican artisan that creates masks for the famous “Mascaradas of Costa Rica”. Here you will not only learn how this artisan makes the masks, you will also experience the tradition and finish the day enjoying a homemade lunch prepared on a traditional wooden fire stove.

Our cooking lesson is done on a 150 year old property which has an amazing charm and gives a unique spirit to the evening. The owners of the house will be on site and will be part of the activity which makes it very personalized and local. Our chef has been cooking for Private families for the past 15 years and has experience on mouth-watering recipes and all types of food. The activity is very dynamic, interactive, immersive, fun and with great Instagram moments.
