A MUST have Barcelona Experience! - If I could give this experience more than 5 stars I would! My husband and I took class with Helena and her lovely daughter on our honeymoon and it was so much fun and so informative! We felt like part of the family for the afternoon. I highly recommend booking the class that includes the market tour to shop for ingredients as well. The hospitality was incredible, the food was amazing and overall we had a blast! Paella Barcelona went above and beyond!

Highlight of our Barcelona trip - My friends and I throughly enjoyed the experience from beginning to end! The shopping market experience was so special and unique as the food we were eating was tested and shown to us in advance. The class was a short walk from the market and we made tomato bruschetta and began cooking! My friend loved the experience getting to cut up the squid so we could cook it with the paella. Everything was great would totally recommend!

Fabulous fun experience - From the trip to the market, to the appetizers, to the sangria to the actual preparation of the paella it was a great time. As a bonus we bonded with the other couples who were there. Delicious experience.

Fun and Tasty! - We really enjoyed our time with Helina and the other guests! The food and sangria was tasty! We loved the tomato bread!! We would have preferred less time in the market and more time prepping or cooking, the tasks we did were minimal and there was quite a bit of standing around. With that said, it was still a fun experience not to be missed in Barcelona!!
