“This activity is definitely intended for two people as you cook with a partner. It would also be fun to go with a group because everyone helps to cook the meal. Our instructor/ guide was incredibly friendly, helpful and spoke good English. The food turned out delicious and there was lots. Only thing I’d change is that lots was done for us, such as cooking the bbq pork, but we were still very involved. I really liked that the group was small, there were six people in our group and we were given specific instructions and shown exactly how to do everything. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. :)”
