Pasta Making and Tiramisù Cooking Class in Rome

Alesja_S, Aug 2026

Cooking class experience

A very fun and educational italian cooking experience. We learned a lot and felt inspired to buy our own pasta‑making machine so we can keep experimenting with the recipes at home. Everything is well organized, the instructor is friendly and highly skilled. And the results are veeeery delicious!

Ponza Island Day Trip from Rome with Boat Tour Swimming and Lunch

Eduardo_G, Jul 2026

Swimming in Ponza

This experience was one of the biggest highlights of our Italy trip. We were feeling a little overwhelmed by the summer heat in Rome and needed a break from sightseeing, so this tour was exactly what we needed. The day starts early with a bus ride to Anzio, followed by a ferry to Ponza. Once you arrive, you join your group and board a smaller boat for a tour around the island. Throughout the day, you stop several times in beautiful blue waters where you can swim and relax. Ponza is incredibly scenic, with views that feel like they belong in a movie. This tour is ideal for anyone looking to spend plenty of time on the water. It is not really designed for exploring the island on foot or spending much time shopping, so keep that in mind when booking. Mara was our host, and she was amazing. She kept track of everyone in the group, shared interesting local history and information about the areas we visited, and was simply a great person to experience the island with. Be sure to bring your own towel, plenty of sunscreen, and motion-sickness medication if you tend to feel unwell after spending extended time on a boat. Overall, this was a great experience and a much-needed escape from the heat and crowds of Rome. We would absolutely recommend it.

Ancient Mosaic Workshop in Rome

Stephen_J, Jul 2026

Perfect for Solo Travelers

This was such a fun and unique experience! The class gave me a great appreciation for the time, skill, and patience that goes into creating mosaic art. It was definitely challenging, but that’s what made it so rewarding. Giulia and Alex were both incredibly kind, patient, and helpful throughout the class. As a solo traveler, I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for something creative to do. It’s also a great way to ease the anxiety that can sometimes come with traveling alone. I was pretty happy with my first mosaic, and I already know I’ll be booking this class again the next time I’m in Rome!

Rome Cooking Class: Make Pizza and Pasta with Wine & Dessert

Jennifer_C, Jul 2026

Learn to make the most delicious food! A small adventure to a hidden gem run by wonderful people.

This was a wonderful experience! Yes Viator has the incorrect point marked on the map. However the school tells you this in all its communication. You can take the metro to Laurentina, which is what we did. David was our driver and was there as expected and we had wonderful conversations on our way to and from the school. Now, onto the class! We can’t say enough about this fantastic experience!! We had Chef Michele and he was informative and entertaining. We learned about how to make pasta dough then we made two types of pasta: cavatelli and fettuccine. The pastas were made with a red sauce for the cavatelli and simple “alfredo” sauce for the fettuccine… no cream as we are used to in the USA. Both were amazing. Making of the pizza was another highlight and the favorite for my younger children. It was delicious! Easily the most delicious pizza we had during our tour of Italy. They provide wines, from a local winery, and plenty of cold water included with the class. You will not leave hungry or thirsty! Such an amazing experience with wonderful people who love what they do. We hope you are up for a bit of an adventure and visit this beautiful hidden gem.

Cooking Class in the Heart of Rome: Pizza and Tiramisu Making

Chef Andrea made this quite a fun and relaxing experience. He was a great instructor and gave off great energy. You make both the tiramisu and pizza from scratch in the kitchen, and then get to enjoy your creations along with wine in the dining room. Everything was delicious.

Rome Pasta or Pizza Cooking Class with Gelato & Wine

Katie_M, Jul 2026

We really enjoyed this...

We really enjoyed this class, and our 8 and 6 year olds loved being able to make their own pastas. Our teacher was very engaging and the time flew by! We learned a lot. Our only negative feedback would be that the name says you'll make gelato but we only learned how to make pasta. We got to eat some freshly-made gelato at the end of class, but my spouse and I were most looking forward to learning how to make it, not just eat it.

Rome Pasta Making Class with Sauces and Wine Included (gf option)

Amy_R, Jul 2026

Fun Night of Cooking

We really enjoyed our cooking class in Rome. The pasta was delicious, the accompanying wine was lovely, and our chef Eugenio was friendly and engaging. It was a fun addition to our Italian holiday. The recipes were delicious - might try to recreate them at home (yet somehow I know it won't be as good). We were a party of three, as we were traveling with our daughter who just graduated high school, so we were paired with another family and it was great. Would definitely recommend.

Rome Tipsy Cooking Class: Make Pasta and Mix 3 Spritz Cocktails

Bernadette_E, Jul 2026

Wonderful experience in Rome!

What a great night thanks to Jem! I’m a terrible cook and Jem made it a fun and informative experience. Pasta was delicious and sitting at table with other travelers was a great way to finish the class. Very generous servings of pasta and lots of spritzes too. Highly recommended and hopefully you get Jem as your cook and Z as host!

Bianca_M, Jun 2026

Great family experience!!

Such a fun family experience to make pizza and gelato together. Simple enough for the kids to do it all on their own and yet tasty enough for us all to enjoy. The facility is beautiful… clean, cool and well situated for us to be together. Duccio was a great chef and guide and my kids really enjoyed his sense of humor along with his guidance.

Rome Candlelight Wine and Dine in Ancient Ruins Near the Pantheon

Steven_W, Jun 2026

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.

Rome Countryside Vineyards and Wine Tasting - Private Tour

Heather_B, Sept 2025

Excellent

A wonderful, relaxing, delicious adventure. Our tour guide, Patrick, was lovely and he pointed out all the landmarks along the way. The drive to the winery is beautiful and you feel like you are a world away from Rome. The visit to the winery was phenomenal- we were greeted by the owner and showed around the property a bit. The wine tasting paired with bites was delicious and in a beautiful room. The time was quite relaxing and wonderful. Definitely recommend this delightful tour.
