Riviera Maya pickup costs extra, and a class only option skips the market. 4.7 from 300 reviews at €70 per person for 4h. **Cook it yourself?:** Class Only at €70 per person: a four course Mexican meal you cook plus a margarita; market visit and transport are the upper tier. 4.7 from 300 reviews. Trade-off: Base tier skips the market and transport. (last checked September 19, 2026) ## Overview Live a personal step-by-step cooking class to prepare a 4-course Mexican meal!
