Vegan/Vegetarian friendly and great way to make friends as a solo traveler.
So fun! Bilingual instruction allowed me to practice my Spanish. The food was delicious and made friends through the cooking class. I was able to remain vegan/vegetarian with the cooking class and learn about the whole empanada making process. Grateful for this unique class.

10/10 Cooking Class!
We had a wonderful experience! The class was very easy to follow and we honestly felt like we were at home with family. Our instructors were super professional and friendly. The space was clean and ready for our arrival. We were able to learn a lot about the history as well as Colombian culture. I would 10000000% recommend anyone to take this cooking class. I look forward to visiting them again when I go back to Medellin!

Fabuloso!
I had a wonderful time! The hosts were kind and patient. I don't speak great Spanish, but it's still easy to follow along and maybe you'll learn a little Spanish by the end. We had so many empanadas at the end that we could take some home.
Response from the operator: Thanks for the beautiful review!! We had a great time during our session🤗

Deliver if you promise
I asked the staff multiple times for the steps of the preparation of the empanadas and they promised that they'll send it to me via text messages, haven't received it at all. Although I asked for it specifically.
Response from the operator: Hi Mohammed, We don't show any record of your request in the message center.

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cooking Class Preparing Colombian Empanadas: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Medellín.
How much does Cooking Class Preparing Colombian Empanadas cost?
+
Prices start at $68 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Medellín usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cooking Class Preparing Colombian Empanadas 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 Medellín is not rushed.
Is Cooking Class Preparing Colombian Empanadas worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 17 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Medellín, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cooking Class Preparing Colombian Empanadas?
+
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 Cooking Class Preparing Colombian Empanadas suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 4. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2.5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Cooking Class Preparing Colombian Empanadas?
+
Around 6 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 Medellín 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 Medellín and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cooking Class Preparing Colombian Empanadas 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 Medellín 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 Medellín?
+
On Outty we rank every Medellín experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guatapé Tour: Piedra del Peñol with Boat Tour, Breakfast, Lunch, Half-Day Coffee Tour: From the Seed to the Cup, Farm & roastery, Private Guatape & Coffee Farm Tour: The Two Must do in One Day. 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 Medellín?
+
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 Medellín?
+
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.
