Ilaria was such a gracious host at her beautiful home. She gave us specific instructions on the train service from Siena and she picked us up and dropped us off at the train station.

Wonderful learning to cook

We had the pleasure of participating in a cooking class in Siena today, and it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. Under the guidance of our knowledgeable instructors, we learned to prepare several authentic Italian dishes: fresh pici pasta, delicate ravioli, light and fluffy gnocchi, and a classic tiramisu for dessert. The hands-on portion allowed us to engage directly with traditional techniques, which made the session both educational and enjoyable. What truly elevated the class was the thoughtful service afterward. The team skillfully cooked all the dishes we had prepared and served them to us with excellent local wine. It was wonderful to experience the full cycle of making and then savoring true Italian food in such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. We highly recommend this cooking class to anyone visiting Siena who wishes to immerse themselves in the rich culinary heritage of Italy. The combination of learning, creating, and enjoying these exceptional dishes created memories that will last long after our trip. Thank you for a truly memorable and enriching afternoon. A sincere five-star experience. We look forward to returning on our next visit to Siena.

Brilliant pasta making class

Great day at the pasta making class! We learnt how to make fresh ravioli by hand. Simone was brilliant, really engaging with each member of the group and taught us all his Nonna’s tips and tricks. He demonstrated how to make other types of pasta. The ravioli was combined and cooked by Ricardo, while we worked together as a group to make tiramisu. Unlimited free wine was on offer throughout, which you could help yourself to. The class was relaxed and enjoyable, ending with a beautiful 3 course meal of bruschetta, homemade pasta and tiramisu.

An Absolute Gem of a Tour

This was honestly one of the best tours I’ve been on, and I’ve done hundreds. Our guide was informative and interesting. We stopped for gelato tasting, wine tasting, and had a delicious lunch of traditional Tuscan cuisine. We saw so much of Siena and heard about its history. The tour with lunch was about an hour longer than what the info said so I was glad I didn’t have anything planned for afterwards.
