Local Flavor tour
Local Flavor cooking was great for the family. My 13 year old is very interested in cooking so he loved it. Farmers Markets were closed, but we gathered herbs and veggies from the garden. Really enjoyable, delicious lunch, and met cool people!

Thank you for sharing this! We are so happy your family joined us for the Local Flavor Cooking Experience.
It is absolutely awesome that your 13-year-old got to dive in. We love seeing young cooks get hands-on | and honestly | harvesting herbs and veggies straight from the garden is the ultimate "farm-to-table" lesson (even if the market was closed!).
We are glad the food was delicious and that the company was good. Food always tastes better when you make it with cool new friends.

Local deliciousness, local life
We had so much fun with guide Cesar and bus driver Jorge visiting the market in Quepos and the finca in Londres.where we cooked a delicious meal under the guidance of Cristal. The visit was extra special because two young interns at Toucanes Tours joined us so we got to interact with them, had them practice their English and peppered tfhem with questions about life in Costa Rica.

Thank you for sharing such a heartwarming review! We are so glad you enjoyed the Local Flavor Cooking Experience with Cesar and Jorge.
We are especially touched that you embraced the time with our interns. That kind of genuine cultural exchange | sharing stories and helping them practice their English | is exactly what we hope for on this tour. It turns a cooking class into a real connection with the community.
We will make sure to tell Cristal that the meal was a hit (and the interns will be buzzing to know they made it into the review!). Thanks for being such open and engaging guests.

Very Happy Tummies!
We have just had a truly wonderful morning as a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teenagers) - Cooking and exploring and learning about the local vegetables, fruits, herbs and spices! Plus some birdwatching as an added bonus! Our guide, Brenda Vindas, was EXCELLENT! Incredibly knowledgeable and a genuinely lovely person to have spent the morning with. We had our menu adjusted for the fact that we have one coeliac and one vegetarian in the family and nothing was too much trouble in that respect. Crysta...daha fazla oku

Thank you for the delicious review! We are so happy your family of 4 enjoyed the Local Flavor Cooking Experience. It is always a win when we can get teenagers and parents learning (and eating!) together.
We are especially glad we could accommodate the coeliac and vegetarian needs seamlessly. We believe everyone deserves to taste the real Costa Rica | regardless of dietary restrictions | so we will pass your thanks on to Crystal. She takes great pride in ensuring every dish is safe and tasty.
Brenda will be thrilled to hear she made the morning special with her botanical knowledge (and the bonus birdwatching!). And we won't forget Albero | he loves keeping the team safe on the road. Thanks for cooking with us!

A truly wonderful experience learning about local foods and also the birds which was an unexpected bonus 😀
Karla, Stephanie and George made this a truly special afternoon/ evening. We had an informative drive to Londres where we picked fresh produce, learned how to cook several.dishes; met the farm.animals. the added bonus was Karla's knowledge and passion for birds, of which there were many..

Traditional Costa Rican cooking experience
We had fun doing a cooking lesson and preparing a local traditional meal at a farm outside of Quepos. Karla was a great hostess and teacher and Brenda in the kitchen was very sweet and helpful. Pedro, our driver, took good care of us over very bumpy roads. It was a fun experience for the whole family!
