Wonderful Experience - Fun and Entertaining - We had a fantastic experience. The chef was entertaining and the paella delicious! Beautiful setting as well. The pick up was seamless as they provided good directions to the location point and transport to the ranch. It was nice to leave the city for a view of the more rural area of Valencia. Translation services were excellent should one need it. Information regarding the history of paella and its origins was provided. There were six of us and we had a fabulous time. We would highly recommend when in Valencia. Don’t miss it!

Paella cooking class with Sea Saffron Valencia - Daniel C. and his cohost were wonderful and very passionate about the experience of making a Paella. It was a small cooking class, three groups, a total of seven people. We were given welcome drinks and after a bit of socializing we received our aprons and moved to the kitchen where all our ingredients were organized for us. Each group made their own paella. Daniel walked us through the process sharing stories, talking bout paella history, the best rice to use, why you start by pouring the oil in center of pan… during the process we enjoyed local wines, gazpacho, appetizers. When our paellas were ready and ohhh they smelled and looked wonderful, we were sat a set table and served our meal which included not only our paellas but appetizers, dessert, and a digestive drink. Our hosts were a lot of fun, and since it was evening they gave us recommendations as to where we could stop for drinks and/or more desserts. It was a lovely experience and I would definitely recommend it to those who love excellent food, excellent wine, and excellent company!

Wow! Wow! Wow! - My friend and I had such a lovely day with Rafa and Dani and the very friendly international group of newly minted "Paella Ambassadors" in our group. Communication ahead of time was helpful and easy to access, meeting and transportation were great, and the class itself was so much fun! The setting in the countryside, where paella was first cooked and shared by campesinos, was homey and welcoming. And the class itself was so much fun! Rafa and Dani delivered the instructions in a fun and entertaining way, and while we waited for the paella to cook, we enjoyed an appetizer course and some wine. The finished products turned out wonderful - there was a choice to make traditional (chicken and rabbit), vegetarian, or seafood versions - and all were so nice! They also facilitated a friendly environment among the guests, so we enjoyed talking to fellow paella cooks. If you can't already tell, we had a blast. I highly recommend this class -- you won't regret it!
