Chef-Led Private Market Tour & Open-Air Cooking Masterclass

Join a celebrated local chef at the island's vibrant morning market to hand-pick seasonal spices, seafood, and tropical produce, then cook a lavish multi-course feast in a stunning open-air kitchen. The flavors, the stories, and the feast are utterly unforgettable.

What to expect

The morning begins at the island's oldest market, where your chef introduces you to local vendors and selects the day's freshest catch and rarest spices. Back at the hillside kitchen, you prepare three courses — ceviche, a grilled whole fish with mango salsa, and a coconut dessert — with expert guidance. Each dish is paired with local wines and rum cocktails. The experience ends with your personal recipe cards and a bottle of the house hot sauce to take home.
