Guidekin's take

A 2h 30m chef-led paella class that opens with a glass of cava and closes with you eating your own cooking, drinks included along the way.

Shorter and more compact than the market-visit classes, which also makes it the easier fit for a tight schedule.

In our comparison: #57 of 76 in Food & Tapas Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
