Me encanta que el lugar se encuentre dentro de la naturaleza, la paz que se escucha y siente es incomparable, además el personal es muy amable y accesible, su curso es muy interesante y espero podamos poner en práctica los nuevos conocimientos

We had a fantastic cooking class! I’d recommend bringing a guide to help translate if you don’t speak Spanish, but not essential, we still had an awesome time!

We did the ancestral dinner as a couple and it was a true highlight of our trip to Mexico! The traditional food was delicious and the team explained everything to us in detail. I would definitely come back for their cooking class!

We had an amazing afternoon cooking class at Aldea Xbatun! The organization was top nodge, everyone was super friendly and we learned a lot! And of course the food was a highlight too! Thanks to Martina, Bety, Doña Irma and everyone else for this great afternoon! We hope someday to visit you again! ????

Excellent experience! World class food. Don't miss this rare opportunity. A charming family including three generations of Mayan women share their wisdom and culinary skill.

We took part in the shorter class featuring Sikil Pak (tomato and pumpkin seed tacos), chicken pibil, (marinated chicken slow-roasted underground in a pit oven, or pibil) and cacao with melipona honey. The Agua Fresca de chaya ("Mayan Spinach") with lime and melipona honey was an unforgettable welcoming gesture.

Visiting this idyllic Mayan aldea is like walking into a magical dream and being treated with the warmth and kindness of generous family.

We had the most lovely Mayan experience at Aldea X'batun. Friendly hosts, intimate, great food and a little insight in the authentic Mayan culture. Thanks for celebrating my birthday with me and my family.

Una experiencia única, una chulada de familia, fui con mi novia y desde que conocimos a José, que por cierto nos fue a recoger cerca de la estación del ADO, sabíamos que iba ser una experiencia única, muy atentos, amables y la comida ni se diga, al llegar José nos dio el tour, la cocina, los cuartos para hospedarse y al llegar al comedor había otras parejas ya comiendo, este no es el típico restaurante que te sientas y ordenas del menú, te llevan tu molcajete para que tú mismo hagas la salsa con los ingredientes traídos a ti obviamente y empezando con esto mi novia y yo quedamos impresionados a ese sabor que estábamos probando, sin decir más este lugar es excepcional, recomendado al 100, al acabar de comer Miguel nos llevó a un cenote cual tiene poca agua pero para tomar fotos es muy hermoso, una hacienda abandonada y un camino que para mis gustos quedé bien impresionado, Miguel no tenía que hacer esto pero nos acompañó para que no nos perdiéramos, visiten este lugar no se van arrepentir.

This was one of our top experiences in the Yucatan. We agreed that we could have spent more time there learning from Rosie and her family about the Maya, their traditional food and customs. It was just divine and we highly recommend the experience to anyone near and far. And of course the food was delicious. We left so content and our hearts full.

The Almuerzo Maya experience was wonderful. The food was simply delicious. It was amazing to see and learn about traditional Mayan cooking techniques. Unbelievable what can be prepared with such simple techniques. Jose and his beautiful family are the perfect hosts. I highly recommend this experience!

Si eres fan de la gastronomía en todos sus aspectos: comer, cocinar o aprender sobre el origen, es una experiencia imperdible si estás cerca de Valladolid, incluso para locales o yucatecos es sentirte un turista en tu propia tierra. Todo está delicioso y participar en la preparación más la amabilidad del personal te hace sentir parte de la familia anfitriona.

Best experience ever!!
We were looking for a Mayan experience near Valladolid and Chichen Itza, and we decided to try the lunch experience with Aldea which is only 10 mins away Valladolid and we were very happy with the experience! We arrived and we had the whole place for ourselves, we ate the best Mexican food we ate in our 10 days trip and the experience was simply amazing. I really recommend this experience to everyone, group of friends, family, young couples, children..it is a 10 points!! We were very happy with our lunch and experience!

This was an amazing experience. The entrance and communication prior to arrival was great and everyone in my group (3 adults, two kids, and one baby) felt amazing and full afterwards. We arrived for the 10 a.m. Mayan cooking class and were celebrating our anniversary with this special experience. We felt connected to every portion of the cooking class and learned a lot about the history and traditions of this community. My husband said it was the most amazing experience of our whole Yucatán vacation. My children tried and ate everything. It was amazing. I 110% recommend booking a reservation for this experience. We paid our balance in cash and shopped their handmade clothes as well. We can't wait to return and check out their dinner and overnight accomodations in the future. We booked two weeks in advance and attended a Tuesday cooking class.

This was, without question, the absolute highlight of our trip to the Yucatán. It was an honor and a joy to spend time with this wonderful family and to learn from their wisdom. They taught us about their culinary traditions as well as about their plants and animals and the many ways they live in harmony with the natural environment. We left feeling deeply inspired.

Che esperienza incredibile!
Siamo state accolte dalle donne della famiglia che ci hanno offerto una bevanda tipica, catapultandoci immediatamente nella loro cultura. Ci siamo subito messe all'opera e guidate dalle loro mani esperte abbiamo preparato diversi piatti della tradizione Maya di cui sentiamo ancora il gusto!
Si tratta di un'esperienza a 360°, non solo culinaria. Abbiamo fatto un piccolo tour della loro tenuta, dove producono buona parte di quello che poi si cucina.
C'è anche la possibilità di soggiornare, le camere sono molto graziose e pulite.
Imperdibile, vale la pena anche fare un po' di strada se si viene da più lontano.

La experiencia fue única; para mí, muy mágica. Fui sola, así que adaptaron el menú del taller de cocina para que pudiera hacerlo aun y ser así. Me sentí súper acogida, además de poder conectar con una cultura nativa y ancestral que adoro y de una forma tan casera. Estoy súper agradecida a la familia, por el trato y correspondencia; por compartir su tradición y sabiduría; por el espacio que crearon, tan sagrado, y permitirme entrar en él con tanto corazón.
