Best Empanada & Wine
Michaela D. was our Host and besides being lovely, she was easy to understand, gave great explanation and instruction. We made beef empanadas which we ate and were delicious. We were given the recipe and I will definitely make at home. The wine tasting was also delicious and plentiful. Well worth the money. Must do if you have a spare few hours! Muchas Gracias 😊

Authentic Empanada Cooking adventure in Buenos Aires
The small group empanada cooking class was a wonderful experience while traveling through Buenos Aries. Overall this experience was exactly as advertised to bring a cooking experience to tourists with a down to earth and fun way to learn about the culture and enjoy some quiet quality time in the city. Our your guide Mika P. Was excellent from her enthusiasm for teaching us the traditional craft of making empanadas to an in depth overview to the history and cooking style of the people in Argentina. The setting provided made it feel like being just at home where people traveling could feel just at home with eachother in an interpersonal class to make it feel just like cooking with family. Not only was it a great experience, but provided the insight and skills for being able to bring this cooking style home to my own family and friends and to the rest of the world. I definitely would recommend anyone who likes cooking and trying foods from around the world to give it a try if you are in the Buenos Aries, Palermo Soho area!

Great experience well worth your time.
Great host in Micaela D and the lady who ran the kitchen. Excellent fun making and eating the food. Really good wine and great company from the host and others. Highly recommended.

Great evening
We had a lovely evening making empanadas and tasting Argentinian wines. Micaela D was very friendly and knowledgeable and made the experience very relaxed. She showed us how to fold the empanadas (not as easy as it sounds) and gave us lots of tips for the rest of our stay in Buenos Aries. Would recommend this experience and the host!

BA: Small Group Empanadas Cooking Class & Wine Tasting in Palermo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Buenos Aires.
How much does BA: Small Group Empanadas Cooking Class & Wine Tasting in Palermo cost?
+
Prices start at $49 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Buenos Aires usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does BA: Small Group Empanadas Cooking Class & Wine Tasting in Palermo take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Buenos Aires is not rushed.
Is BA: Small Group Empanadas Cooking Class & Wine Tasting in Palermo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 86 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Buenos Aires, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule BA: Small Group Empanadas Cooking Class & Wine Tasting in Palermo?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is BA: Small Group Empanadas Cooking Class & Wine Tasting in Palermo suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book BA: Small Group Empanadas Cooking Class & Wine Tasting in Palermo?
+
Around 30 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Buenos Aires can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Buenos Aires and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does BA: Small Group Empanadas Cooking Class & Wine Tasting in Palermo start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Buenos Aires within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Buenos Aires?
+
On Outty we rank every Buenos Aires experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Argentine Cooking, Wine & Beef Tasting at Argentine Experience, Historical Sherpa Food Tour of San Telmo with Street Food, Drinks, Cooking Class with Empanadas Steak & Flan by Argentine Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Buenos Aires?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Buenos Aires?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
