Top Montenegro Cooking Classes

This cooking class was one of the most special experiences of my entire trip. Cooking alongside Suzanne felt less like a class and more like being welcomed into a Montenegrin grandmother’s home — warm, personal, and full of genuine care.We made the traditional Set Menu 1: Parmigiana as an appetizer and Brodet, a classic Montenegrin fish stew, as the main course. Suzanne guided us through every step with patience and stories about the dish’s history, making the whole experience feel authentic rather than staged. The company was wonderful, the food was absolutely delicious, and I left with both a full stomach and the recipes to recreate it back home.If you want a genuine taste of Montenegrin culture and hospitality, not just a cooking demonstration, this is an absolute must while in Kotor. Suzanne made it unforgettable.

Philip was a great Kotor tour guide, kept it informative and concise. Cooking class was fantastic – hands on with lots of menu options, and quality local ingredients. Spent a couple of hours cooking and chatting. Interesting to hear about the history of the area and how it's changed. This was a private class for 2 people, would have been happy to be in a larger group for this.

We liked hospitality a lot. It is wonderfull to have a feeling of free atmosphere. Very tasty and a simple dishes at the time. I was allowed to do the most of cooking under Susannas supervision. It was great experience. Learned new recepies !!!

Wish I could rate this even higher! The entire experience was fantastic, from Djordje giving us an epic old town tour (in the rain!) to Suzanna welcoming us to her lovely home, where the cooking class was fun, the food turned out delicious, and the conversation flowed. I wish we could have stayed even longer. Would recommend to anyone wanting a cooking class combined with a glimpse into the life of locals.

We had a great time. George was an awesome guide and fun to hang out with and Susanna how does making gnocchi and cheese pie and everything was awesome !!!

This is a tour you really should take. Our guide was Novak. I can’t say enough good things about him. Patient (our water shuttle was late), funny, knowledgeable, and ready to answer all our questions. After a walking tour of Old Town (don’t miss the cats 🤣) we went to Susanna’s house for our cooking class and lunch. She was hilarious! We had so much fun and learned to cook brodet (a fish soup) and gibanica (phyllo and cheese and egg pie). Over coffee, wine, and good food it felt like we made new friends with her and Novak. These are the kinds of tours we love. Cannot recommend both of them highly enough!!

Our tour guide Milena was wonderful. Great sense of humor. Great language skills. Great knowledge of Kotor and Montenegro. Helped us find some local art that we were interested in. The cooking class was also wonderful. The host Suzanna was warm, fun, and a great instructor. Loved the food we selected to make: fish stew, fig and cheese pie, and eggplant casserole. Relaxing. Delicious. Great experience.

We did the Old Town walking tour with George and then the cooking class with Suzanna. Overall, the experience was amazing. George did a great job of sharing the history of the city and pointing out various landmarks. Suzanna was extremely welcoming and made us feel right at home. She taught us how to make local dishes like eggplant parm and the food was delicious.After doing a lot of the "touristy" things in Montenegro, it was so refreshing to meet some local people and spend time learning about their culture. They were extremely friendly and we would recommend this activity to anyone who visits Montenegro!

We all greatly enjoyed the tour and the cooking experience. Novak was an excellent guide and Suzana was an interesting and entertaining cooking instructor and chef. Everyone took part in the food preparation and enjoyed eating their creations. We look forward to receiving the emailed recipes. We all decided that Kotor was our favorite city out of the ten ports our cruise visited. Jack

Djordje was a super knowledgeable and flexible tour guide, catering the tour to what we wanted to learn and do. The cooking class with Susanna was even better! You get to select your menu from a long list of options. We got to spend the afternoon in her home, learning about, cooking, and enjoying local cuisine. We felt like old friends by the time we left! We'll be looking for tours like this in every country we visit from now on!

There’s nothing better than spending time with a local Montenegrin. And this local happens to be one of the best people I’ve ever met! Not only will she teach you how to cook authentic Montenegrin dishes, she will warm your heart and treat you like part of her family. Enjoy an afternoon on her beautiful terrace while you take in the flavors of her family traditions. Not to be missed while in Kotor!

What an incredible experience! I recently joined a cooking class hosted by Suzana from our tour guide Geogre, and I can’t recommend it enough. The personal touch of cooking in a local home made the entire experience feel authentic and special.The class began with a warm welcome from our host, who guided us every step of the way. I loved being able to choose my dishes from the menu—everything from the starter to the dessert was absolutely delicious! The hands-on approach allowed us to truly learn and engage with the ingredients, and I walked away with new skills I can’t wait to use at home.Enjoying the meal we prepared together, paired with an included drink, was the cherry on top. The atmosphere was friendly and relaxed, and I appreciated being able to order additional drinks to enjoy with our meal afterwards.The team was very attentive, and they were open to requests regarding transfers and guides in different languages. This flexibility ensured that every aspect of our experience was tailored to our needs.If you’re looking for a unique culinary adventure while learning about local culture, this cooking class is a must-do! I can’t wait to share my new recipes with friends and hope to return for another class soon!

Dasun was a wonderful guide. Friendly and knowledgeable. Meet up was a breeze and then we toured the beautiful old town. He as able to provide a ton of interesting information but not so much that we were bored. Then to the lovely home of Susana. The hospitality was outstanding. She welcomed us into her home like family. She then guided us in creating a delicious feast. The food was traditional and things that we had not had before. Everything was amazing and plentiful. We were allowed to be a part of a traditional Montenegrin dinner and it is something we will not soon forget.

We had such a wonderful time with Filip and Suzana. We first met with Filip and had a great walking tour. He’s very knowledgeable, friendly and funny. Then we had a great time making stuffed mushrooms and gnocchi on Suzana’s patio. Suzana was great and we learned so much. We had such a wonderful experience and highly recommend to anyone visiting Kotor.

Book this experience if you can swing it, even during short cruise ship land visits. You'll gain a richer experience than you expect. The food is amazing, but that's not even the best part of the experience.Here, people come to enjoy a meal together as if they are visiting an old friend. If you're worried about it being awkward, rest assured it won't be. Instead, you'll meet an amazing woman with an even more amazing talent for cooking.You'll also enjoy local stand-up comedy and have access to an incredibly affordable therapist. What better way to make new friends and deepen existing relationships? Thank you, Suze, for feeding us! Đorđe and Filip, thanks for making it happen!

Had an amazing time with Dorde and Suzana! First we did a tour of the Old Town - it was raining and Dorde was kind enough to lend his umbrella to our group. Very thoughtful! We learned about the history of various areas of Old Town. But the best part of the tour was cooking and dining with Suzana and Dorde. It really felt like we were part of the family and enjoying the afternoon on Suzana's beautiful balcony. The food was delicious, from the starters to the mains and the dessert including all of the spirits! We had the best time enjoying Kotor like a local. Highly recommend this tour!!
