Cooking with Carlos
I enjoyed cooking with Carlos and learning about Ecuadorian Cuisine. He had done most of the prep in advance so there was a bit less actual cooking than I would have preferred. I ended up being the only one who signed up so I have a private lesson which was nice.
Response from the operator: Dear Steven, Thank you very much for all your good comments and we are happy to know that you enjoyed. Regards Alejandro

Amazing!
This I'd am exceptionally well curated experience. The ambiance at Claroscuro is stunning, the service is world class yet very authentic, and the food quality is superb. Josúe, the chef, is smart and engaging. He walked me through each dish with whit and perfectly times explanations. The team went above and beyond to craft the three traditional meals with great regard for my specifications and we all enjoyed it. It's an incredibly personal experience as you have the meals with the chef, which sets the pace for more relevant and thoughtful conversation. The entire concept is miles ahead of typical travel cooking offerings. It's pro-social and exciting.
Response from the operator: Hi Tyrone, We are so happy you enjoy your cooking class and had such a great time. Thanks for taking the time to give us this nice review. We hope to see you soon.

Phenomenal
Phenomenal! Karen was awesome. We made a potato soup with an avocado rose set on cheese in the middle of the soup. Then we made a sword fish in a cream sauce and finished with a chocolate fondue dish with a variety of passion fruit and other local fruits. It was the best cooking class I have ever taken. Thanks Karen!
Response from the operator: Hi Bradley , We are so glad you enjoy your cooking class. Thanks for taking the time to do such a nice review. We hope to see you soon.

Premium Cooking Class Quito Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quito.
How much does Premium Cooking Class Quito Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $135 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quito usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Premium Cooking Class Quito Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Quito is not rushed.
Is Premium Cooking Class Quito Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". 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 Quito, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Premium Cooking Class Quito Tour?
+
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 Premium Cooking Class Quito Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Premium Cooking Class Quito Tour?
+
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 Quito 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 Quito and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Premium Cooking Class Quito Tour 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 Quito 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 Quito?
+
On Outty we rank every Quito experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cotopaxi Volcano full day tour with all the entrances, every day, Cotopaxi tour from Quito -horseback ride and hike-NO TOURISTY way, Baños Full Day Tour from Quito Including Entrances and Activities. 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 Quito?
+
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 Quito?
+
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.
