Paella making in Barcelona
Spain
Return from Spain with the knowhow to whip up a mean Paella.
Originating from Valencia, Paella consists of stock-flavoured rice and (traditionally) a mix of chicken, rabbit, snails and beans. But these days there are over 200 variations.
There are cooking schools with trips to La Boqueria market (Barcelona’s most famous) before you roll up your sleeves and learn how to make Paella. And then there are small group cooking classes in outdoor kitchens, or the chef’s own apartment.
Discover recipes handed down through generations, and classes delivered with complimentary sangria.

After 14 years in the travel industry, travel is still my great passion. I love exploring new destinations and experiencing different cultures, cuisines and customs. Partway through my career, I took a year off to travel extensively through Central America, Asia and Europe. Today, I enjoy sharing the knowledge I've gained over the years and using that experience to help clients bring their travel dreams to fruition.

I like to think of
myself as a breath of fresh air in the travel industry. Having spent some
time living in both the USA and the UK, my love for travel truly blossomed
during that time. I firmly believe that exploring the world opens hearts and
minds, offering lessons you can’t find anywhere else. Zoe |
