I had an amazing time learning how to cook trofie pasta, pesto and tiramisu with Luca! He was a great teacher, bubbly personality and very knowledgeable about the region. He has a very warm and welcoming home up in the hills of Riomaggiore. It was my first night on my solo trip to Cinque Terre and it was a great way to quick off the weekend. I would definitely recommend to someone looking for an authentic Italian cooking experience, who is staying in the region!

Luca was so kind and patient. He has a great sense of humor as well. Enjoyed learning in his kitchen. We were lucky enough to have a private class making trofie pasta and pesto as well as tiramisu.

Fantastic cooking experience!

Fantastic cooking experience in an amazing home in the mountains of Riomaggiore. Be aware however that traveling to this home includes a very Challenging walk downhill on a rocky path from the main road. All good if you’re reasonably fit but not recommended if hills or rocky terrain bothers you.

Know before you go

Riomaggiore can get busy in summer, so book tours and accommodations well in advance.
Bring comfortable, sturdy walking shoes, as the village roads are steep and often uneven.
While many hotels and tourist attractions in Riomaggiore are wheelchair and stroller accessible, the village’s steep and narrow lanes can be challenging to navigate for anyone with mobility issues.
