Before you book

What is included in the paella workshop?

The listing includes a chef, guided Ruzafa Market visit, ingredients, hands-on paella class, Spanish tapas, unlimited sangria, beer, DO Valencia wine and welcome soft drinks as described.

Valencian paella ingredients and techniques you will learn

During the Valencian paella class, the chefs explain characteristic ingredients such as J. Sendra rice and saffron. Salmorreta is also used for the seafood version.

The class also covers socarrat, the toasted layer that develops at the bottom of the paella and gives you a closer look at one of the most distinctive parts of traditional paella preparation.

Who is this Valencia food experience best for?

It works particularly well for first-time visitors to Valencia, food lovers, couples, groups of friends and travelers who prefer interactive activities where they can learn by doing.

It may be less suitable if you simply want the cheapest possible paella meal, have no interest in cooking or expect an in-depth food tour focused entirely on Ruzafa Market.

TourBookGo verdict

Guest feedback particularly highlights the instructors, the food and the sociable atmosphere of this Valencia food experience.

It is worth considering if you want more than simply ordering paella in a restaurant. You get a market introduction, cook alongside local chefs and then sit down to share the food and drinks with the group.
