Cooking Class on Santa Cruz Island

We'll pick you up from your Santa Cruz Island hotel and take you to the Galapagos Frontier Reserve.

Upon arrival, we'll explore trails of lava tunnels and encounter giant Galapagos tortoises. We will also pick fresh fruits and vegetables from organic gardens. Fresh ingredients enhance the experience!

Next, we'll head to the reserve's kitchen to prepare a traditional Galapagos menu. A local chef will guide us through the cooking class, sharing secrets behind local recipes to prepare a starter, main course, and dessert.

After our culinary session, we'll enjoy our traditional lunch, savoring the dishes we've crafted. Prepare for a delightful experience!

After lunch, we will return to your hotel on Santa Cruz Island, completing approximately 4 hours of activity.
