What You’ll Experience

Cooking and Salsa Dance Lesson Combo Learn to cook and dance like a local on this unique night out in La Fortuna! The perfect way to get to know Costa Rican culture and take part in some of our most important activities in Costa Rica: cooking, eating, and dancing! People are starting to really take to learning about new cultures and the best way to do that is to learn about what the locals eat. Turns out, Costa Rica has amazing cuisine -- it's healthy, natural, and actually very easy to learn how to cook it. That's why you'll be wanting to take back local spices and try some of our favorite recipes back home with your friends and families. We've planned these cooking classes as a great way to get to know other travelers and hang out with a knowledgeable local "chef!" But the night gets even better because as soon as you finish cooking, you'll be able to sit down to the delicious meal you helped cook up and chat about the "Pura Vida" of Costa Rica. But wait... there's more! Hope you brought your dancing shoes to Costa Rica because we then head to the dance floor to learn how to dance to some of our favorite Latin beats -- salsa, merengue, cumbia y bachata!
