Deliciously fun!

Tucked away in a hidden part of Romes countryside within the city limits is this wee gem of a cooking class:) Alessia has the perfect balance of teacher and entertainer, keeping things light and fun as we learnt about pizza dough and how to make different pasta. Fab experience!

A wonderful family experience with Chef Riccardo! 🇮🇹🍝

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a wonderful experience with my husband and my sister! We participated in the Italian cooking class with Chef Riccardo and his team and loved every moment. We learned to prepare several different doughs and a delicious torta caprese. It was very special to get hands-on together, learn, and have fun. Certainly, one of the best memories of our trip to Rome! Thank you very much to Chef Riccardo and the entire team for this experience. We highly recommend it! 🇮🇹🍝🍰

What a fun way to spend a night in Roma.

We were recommended this class and now I’m recommending to others. Such a fantastic activity that was enhanced by our chef Leo. A fun night making pizzas and tiramisu for all of us, a way to meet other travellers and take home a piece of Roma. Leo our chef was encouraging and made the experience memorable. I definitely recommend this class for its convenient location, well organised activity and an enjoyable evening. I look forward to returning and trying another class, and trying all the recipes we were provided. Highly recommend

Had a terribly nice evening.

Ended up at this cooking class through a friend! Had a terribly fun evening. A nice atmosphere and pleasant company. Nava made the atmosphere good with all her jokes and music. Eddie helped fantastically in the background by constantly cleaning up and pouring our drinks. In short, a wonderful evening and a beautiful memory of Rome for us as a couple!

Truffle hunting near Rome with 7-course lunch

Highlight of our Italy Trip

Our truffle-hunting experience with Matteo was absolutely wonderful and definitely one of the highlights of our Italy trip! Matteo gave us very clear instructions for getting from Rome by train. From there, he drove us into the beautiful mountains to begin our truffle hunt. Along the way, he was incredibly personable and knowledgeable, sharing so much about truffle hunting and the area. The forest was absolutely beautiful, and hunting with his two dogs, Wendy and Leilo, was so much fun. They were adorable and clearly loved their job! I was also very glad I chose to wear sneakers because we spent a good amount of time hiking through the forest as we searched for and collected truffles. After our hunt, Matteo took us back to his property, where we got to meet his other dogs. Then came one of the best parts of the experience: a beautiful lunch that was prepared for us right there on the property. Everything was absolutely delicious, and we left very full and very happy. We especially appreciated Matteo’s warmth and hospitality. He made the entire experience feel personal and authentic rather than like a typical tourist excursion. If you’re visiting Italy and have the opportunity to go truffle hunting with Matteo, do it! It was such a unique experience, and one that we’ll remember as one of the very best parts of our trip.

This was a fun, engaging, and interactive experience. Luca is a great host and passionate about what he does. They were weirdly stingy about the wine and serving it. Liked that it allowed you to meet and get to know other travelers especially at the family style dinner.

Fabulous Roman experience

A true highlight of our trip to Rome. Informative and fun lesson where we learned how to make Roman pizza and gelato while enjoying Italian wine. Our chef was experienced and fun and our 8yo daughter loved it! The kitchen is also air conditioned so it was the perfect escape from the August heat.

Ancient Mosaic Workshop in Rome

Jessica_A, Sept 2026

Fun Mosaic Workshop

Went with my partner to a mosaic workshop for a more unique and crafty experience on our trip to Rome and thought it was amazing! Our hosts were warm and welcoming, and showed their expertise as they walked through the Roman methods for making mosaics. They were also so helpful at guiding us when we were lost or unsure on how to make the design work. Really pleased with the outcome and highly recommend it as part of any trip to Rome.

Unforgettable dining experience.

This was an intimate experience with only 6 guests the night we went. The experience delivered on every expectation, and Lisa was a wonderful host. We were served four wine-paired courses of traditional Roman food, well prepared and nicely presented. The venue was in the excavated remains of a Roman bath underneath a local restaurant, and the space was charming. We had our adult children with us, but this would be an unforgettable date-night experience in Rome.

We were supposed to be...

We were supposed to be with a group but we were the only two that booked the tour. Or sommelier Alex did not cancel and gave us a a private experience we will never forget. He had so much knowledge and taught us so much about pairing the right wine with each course. The restaurant was wonderful and he took us on a tour of the ancient bath house in basement now a wine seller. The wine was wonderful and the food did not disappoint. I was so thankful that Alex did not cancel because we were the only people signed up, we had another tour do that and it was very disappointing after booking so far in advance. This was one of our hi lights in Rome!
