What are people saying about Tuscany

A Brunello Cooking Class with Vineyards View Winery

Stephanie_R, Jun 2026

Tuscan Experience

We had a great time at this cooking experience. We were greeted by Alice who gave us an informative tour of the castle and the winery. She was so kind and interested in sharing as well as answering any of our questions. The cooking part of our day was great. Yummy wine and fun Italian music was the perfect start to our lesson with Cat. We worked together with another family to create two kinds of pasta as well as tiramisu. While making, rolling and cutting our pasta, we were treated to a beautiful view out of the windows. After we completed our pasta, we sat down together to a lovely lunch (feeling proud to have made it ourselves) with more delicious wine. It was a fantastic way to immerse ourselves in the Tuscan life! Thank you for a fun day for our group.

Francy's Pasta & Gnocchi on Top of Florence Hills

A few coworkers and I (4 people) booked this cooking class during our stay in Florence - little did I know that it was going to be my favorite activity there! Our total group of 12 people was picked up at the meeting point and driven to Francy’s house where we learned how to make ravioli, spaghetti, and gnocchi under Francy and Alessandro’s supervision. They both made a great team and their humor/personalities definitely made this experience more enjoyable and memorable. If you’re looking for a fun escape outside of Florence’s busy streets, I highly recommend this class!

Small-Group Tuscan Cooking Class with Wine & Lunch from Siena

Tracy_M, Jun 2026

An absolute must!!

This cooking class in a farmhouse in Tuscany is exactly what you would picture and more! Simone is a wonderful host and an even better chef! This cooking class allowed us to make our own ravioli, which was the best we had ever had! Then we made a delicious tiramisu. The wine was flowing and we learned so many great tips! It was absolutely amazing and I would recommend to anyone!!

Pasta Cooking Class: Mastering Nonna's Recipes

Catherine_A, Jun 2026

The Art of Cooking Pasta Ala Firenze!

This was an excellent experience, and my husband and I would recommend it to anyone visiting Firenze! Our chef was exquisite, with great attention to detail. He exhibited a lot of patience to work with our small group of pros, amateurs and even some children. We learned so much about making/cooking pasta correctly and about cooking times, different sauces to pair with various pastas, etc. He provided an awesome way to make ravioli without using fancy tools and accessories. He was so neat, and cleaned the surfaces and the pots/pans meticulously as he moved from pasta to pasta. On a personal note, he mimicked what my mother used to say: "Never use garlic in meat sauce." My mom often would present her pasta with the words: "It's a simple peasant dish but made with love." Our aprons said: "Cook with Love." Surprisingly, my own nonna's sauce was similar to the meat sauce that our chef prepared, so it was extra special for me, with so many memories of my childhood flooding back to me. We enjoyed the end results, with three different pastas and great tasting sauces. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed this cooking class and spent the evening wandering the streets of Florence to work off some of the extra calories. No ill effects from this experience either!

The Italian Way: Pizza and Gelato Class with Unlimited Wine

Stephanie_B, Jun 2026

What a fun way to spend...

What a fun way to spend an afternoon! We were guided with how to make pizza from scratch, and even got the recipes in the end! We were also shown how to make gelato. I’ve done quite a few of these experiences - I do wish the leader was more interactive with the audience. Other than that, perfect experience!

Tuscany Express Experience: Pasta Class & Wine Tour from Florence

Mary_H, Jun 2026

Our Favorite Tour of the Trip

This was our favorite activity of our entire trip. Chris our initial guide was wonderful and so knowledgeable. The ride out to the farmhouse was beautiful, comfortable, and full of information about the history of the area. Once at the farmhouse we were greeted with wine and a snack, while we met Camilla (our Italian Nonna) and Alishia (her assistant and interpreter). It was a beautiful afternoon of making pasta, Gelato, and singing and dancing with Camilla. The food was fantastic but the whole experience was perfect.

More Like an Intimate Dinner Party Than a Class!

We had absolute blast at this cooking class! The experience was completely hands-on and hosted in an intimate, small-group setting that made us honestly feel like we were guests in someone's beautiful home. The food was delicious, the wine flowed, and the conversation was wonderful. Thank you, Katia and Fulvio, for sharing your incredible love for cooking with us. Our hearts and our tummies were completely full!

Keelin_C, May 2026

Wonderful cooking class experience!

This experience was way above our expectations. We joined our host Barbara in her lovely home where she was waiting for us with a prepped kitchen and a smile. She was a great teacher and provided us with lots of hands on time preparing the two pastas and tiramisu. We had a wonderful meal from our cooking paired with a delicious bottle of wine.

Ted, Apr 2026

Had a great time cooking authentic Italian food

Great experience buying and making authentic Italian food. We made lasagna from scratch including the pasta layers and ragu sauce. We also made Tiramasu from scratch. Our host, Roberta, was engaging, friendly, talented and full of information. The wine flowed, samples were tasted and we were full from our wonderful creations. The morning/afternoon we spent in this class was one of the highlights of our 2 week Italy trip.

Great experience.

We had an amazing experience taking a cooking class in Tuscany. The setting was beautiful, and the hosts were warm, welcoming, and very knowledgeable. We made delicious traditional dishes using fresh local ingredients, and the hands-on experience made it both fun and easy to follow. Camille and her husband were the best hosts.

Venice Hands-On Bigoli Pasta Class : Cook & Taste Local Recipes

Jeff_M, Feb 2026

Great Afternoon Learning to Make Pasta

Great experience learning to make pasta with Sebastien. He met us nearby his apartment and we went back and learned a lot about making pasta. As a Venetian, he had interesting insights on the city and cooking. He has a beautiful redone kitchen with spectacular views of the canal which made the experience even more special. I would recommend this tour to any one interested in cooking and looking for something a little different in Venice.
