Nuevo Vallarta · Evenings
Three hours in Nuevo Vallarta: mix margaritas and cantaritos, press tortillas and build street tacos, then learn salsa, cumbia and merengue before sitting down to the taco feast you made.
About this class
The Taco Fiesta is the evening version of a Cookin' Vallarta class, held in a small town in the heart of Nuevo Vallarta. It is designed for groups who want the night to keep moving: cocktails first, then cooking, then dancing, then dinner.
You start with mixology — the margarita, the cantarito and other Mexican classics — before moving to the kitchen to make salsas, press tortillas by hand and build street-style tacos. After cooking comes the dance floor, with a lesson in salsa, cumbia and merengue. The night closes with the taco feast your group made.
It runs 18:00 to 21:00 on Mondays and Saturdays, for 6 to 12 guests, and it is a favourite for bachelorette parties, corporate retreats and family get-togethers. The venue is indoors, so the weather is not a problem, and transport from the meeting point to the venue is included.
