personal and kind experience
It was such a nice and very local experience! We were welcomed with such kindness and a heart warming environment. They even organised a little birthday treat, when they found out it was the birthday of one of us. They went above and beyond!! I would strongly recommend😇
Response from the operator: Thank you so much, Frida! 🤩 Moments like yours — celebrating a birthday at our cooking class, with warm stories and good company — are exactly what we live for at Eatable Stories. It was a true joy to welcome you both, and we're so happy the little birthday surprise made the experience even more special. Thank you for letting us be part of that memory! Wishing you more delicious adventures, and we hope to welcome you back again soon. 🥐❤️

Worthwhile
This experience was amazing! We went through the entire process of making a very special dish and the accompanying sides. The family was welcoming and very kind to us. The tour guide helped to translate and explain the process to us. This was a hands on experience in the sense that we were truly cooking and chopping! This is a full 4 hour experience.
Response from the operator: Dear Jevay, On behalf of the Eatable Stories Team, we express our heartfelt gratitude for your positive feedback. Your encouragement is invaluable to us, as it motivates our continued efforts in enhancing the experiences we provide to our guests. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to welcome you again in the near future for another exceptional experience. Kind regards, The Eatable Stories Team

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Bogotá: Carimañola Cooking Class + 5 Tastings with Family: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bogotá.
How much does Bogotá: Carimañola Cooking Class + 5 Tastings with Family cost?
+
Prices start at $70 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bogotá usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Bogotá: Carimañola Cooking Class + 5 Tastings with Family take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Bogotá is not rushed.
Is Bogotá: Carimañola Cooking Class + 5 Tastings with Family worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bogotá, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Bogotá: Carimañola Cooking Class + 5 Tastings with Family?
+
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 Bogotá: Carimañola Cooking Class + 5 Tastings with Family suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Bogotá: Carimañola Cooking Class + 5 Tastings with Family?
+
Around 1 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 Bogotá 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 Bogotá and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bogotá: Carimañola Cooking Class + 5 Tastings with Family 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 Bogotá 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 Bogotá?
+
On Outty we rank every Bogotá experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Free Graffiti Walking Tour Every Day in Bogota, Bogota Zipaquira Salt Cathedral Private Tour + Lunch, Private City Tour Bogota + Monserrate, Gold, Botero and Candelaria.. 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 Bogotá?
+
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 Bogotá?
+
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.
