About this activity
Helene is a native Canadian who moved to Puerto Vallarta 15 years ago and immediately began traveling the country with her newly found Mexican friends. Her favorite part of her travels was tasting everything and returning home to recreate the flavors she tasted and loved throughout Mexico. She loves cooking together with her friends and is known for making 150 tamales at a time!
Helene lives in a beautiful hacienda-style house in a typical Mexican residential neighborhood (not an expat neighborhood), so you will get an authentic experience of the local culture. Her house on a local dirt road is furnished with Mexican antiques and has a beautiful garden and pool. Helene speaks Spanish, English and French and is a great host for people coming from around the world.

Our host was excellent and accommodating in every way. Beginning with meeting us at a central point in order to take any stress out of finding the hacienda :- The food prep was fun and engaging -- she was able to tell us the history of Mexican ingredients in a great detail. Great conversation and drinks over the lunch and she would not let us help with any of the clean-up. Tempus fugit when you are having fun and we most certainly did not want to leave. I don't want to post any pictures of the sumptuous meals only because I want you to go and form your own memories -- you won't be disappointed. Great day - highly recommended.
