Juan More Taco was an amazing tour! It started with Karina, who was such a wonderful and welcoming host. She shared the history of her family traditions and explained the process of making chocolate and mole, which was so interesting.Then David took us on an incredible taco tour to some of the best local spots, where we tried delicious tacos paired with unique and flavorful sauces. We also enjoyed an amazing dessert, and at the end, we got to taste several different tequilas!The whole experience was very interesting, unique, and deeply rooted in Mexican traditions. One piece of advice: come hungry, because they offer you A LOT of food! Definitely an experience I would recommend.

This tour was amazing!! It exceeded our expectations! Karina and David were amazing and so full of information. I should have paced myself a little better because I could barely finish my delicious churro!

The COOKIN' family
Discover Authentic Mexico, One Bite at a Time
Our journey began in 2012 with Cookin' Vallarta and a simple idea: to share the Mexico we love through food, family, and hands-on cooking.
What started as a small family business was also a way to create something that allowed us to spend more quality time with the people we love—our spouses, children, and parents.
Over the years, that personal dream grew into a shared mission: to be proud ambassadors of Mexico, its people, and its culture. We believe one of the best ways to experience Mexico is to cook it, taste it, and share it.
That is why our hands-on Mexican cooking classes go beyond recipes. We introduce travelers to authentic ingredients, traditional techniques, local markets, and the stories behind the food—creating an experience that feels personal, welcoming, and genuinely Mexican.
The COOKIN' Family
In 2015, our family grew with the launch of Juan More Taco Tours in Cabo San Lucas. As our passion for sharing Mexico through food continued to grow, so did the COOKIN' family, bringing hands-on Mexican cooking experiences to new destinations across Mexico.
Today, the COOKIN' family spans Vallarta, Los Cabos, San José, Playa del Carmen, and Cancún. Behind each destination is a team of chefs and guides who are more than colleagues—we are friends, family, and people who have grown together through the years.
Some of us are connected by blood. Others became family through friendship, shared experiences, and a common love for Mexico and its food.
Wherever you join us, you'll find the same spirit at the heart of COOKIN': authentic food, genuine hospitality, and a team that loves sharing Mexico with the people who come to experience it.
Join us on a culinary journey and experience the true taste of Mexico, just like the locals do.
