This is not a “watch and copy” cooking class—it’s a chef-led, technique-first experience designed to give you results you can recreate at home. You’ll learn the small details most classes skip: how pasta dough should feel at each stage, how thin to roll it, how to seal ravioli cleanly, and how to build a tiramisu that stays silky and stable. Our chefs guide you with personal checkpoints throughout the class, keeping it hands-on, clear, and enjoyable—whether it’s your first time or you love to cook. Ingredients are fresh and local, the atmosphere is warm and refined, and dietary needs (including gluten-free options) can be accommodated. You’ll finish by sitting down to enjoy your meal together, paired with good wine—leaving Florence with real skills, not just photos.

What are people saying about Tuscany

Carmen_F, May 2026

Francy and Alessandro are legends in the kitchen

Francy was the best host with a beautiful personality that shone all night long. Alessandro was also fantastic each bouncing off one another the whole evening. This was an experience where you felt you were having a fun evening with old friends. France called my mother in law ‘mumma’ all night long. We had many laughs, lots of wine and lemonchello! The pasta and gnocchi making was a great experience- expertly taught, very hands on with each guest taking time to check each person’s pasta during the making session. The view was sensational as well, looking back over Florence. As a family of 4 adults of a trip to remember someone who lived good food and was a great cook, this was the perfect experience to share with 8 other people. We will forever remember our experience and thank Francy and Alessandro for making our night one we will talk about for years to come.

Pizza & Gelato

Excellent from start to finish. Well worth the money and Fabio & Alain took time to make everyone feel comfortable and tell stories behind the process and history of pizza and gelato as well as parmigiano reggiano. The entire staff and ciao Florence were wonderful hosts and made you felt completely welcome in Florence and Italy.

Amazing and perfect tour 10/10!!

Absolutely incredible experience. Our guide Noimi was so personable and made our group feel so tight knit even though we had just met. The wine tour was so instructional and the pasta making was so fun! The views of the villa were beautiful and it was nice to explore the grounds. Getting out of the city for a day was well worth it for this excursion, I could not recommend this more!

Florence: Fresh Pasta & Tiramisu Cooking Class +Lots of Good Wine

Marilyn_C, May 2026

This was an amazing...

This was an amazing experience all around. Our chef made the whole thing both educational and fun with a love of italian heritage. He walked us through each step, gave us the whys, and was able to help everyone form their doughs. He was so cool and had a lot if passion for teaching! We made 2 pasta shapes and part of the tiramisu. We were provided with lots of wine and a charcuterie plate too. The finished meal of our own pastas turned out great. Our 20 year old had as much fun as we did! The experience was almost 3.5 hours since we all said we were not in a hurry!! Highly recommend if you need time off from seeing sights and museums!!

Wonderful Cooking Experience

This is one of the best activities we’ve experienced in our many years of traveling. Alain was so enthusiastic, entertaining and made everyone feel comfortable. He obviously loves his job and enjoys sharing his knowledge with others. Very patient and at the end of the class we ate an incredibly delicious meal. Highly recommend!

Tuscan Cooking Class

Susan_F, May 2026

I would give this more than 5 stars, if I could

This was a phenomenal experience from start to finish. The farm was easy to find and we felt welcome immediately. Our instructor, Fulvio, was warm and friendly and has an incredible knowledge of Tuscan cuisine, as well as many other world cuisines. All of the dishes we prepared, we not only learned the how of it, but why certain ingredients are used and how to use them. The class size is limited; we only had 5 in our class. And everything was delicious, enjoyed with good wine, and some wonderful companions! No matter your level of cooking experience, you will enjoy this class. Highly recommend!

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.

Montepulciano: Pasta & Tiramisu Class in a Local Home by Cesarine

Cesare_R, Oct 2025

Incredible. It was only...

Incredible. It was only us 2 and the chef, Pietropaolo. He was amazing. He taught us so much and we already knew how to make pasta from scratch. His tips and methods elevated it so much. 2 pestos, multiple pasta shapes, tiramisu, and lemoncello. After we ate, he sat and chatted with us and had some lemoncello. Could not recommend enough. Worth every penny.

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

Abbie_T, Sep 2025

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.

Cannot miss! Must do!!

This was the best day ever! We cooked 4x dishes (1x appetiser, 2x pasta, 1x dessert) and these were paired with 3 wines, plus we had a 4th wine while we cooked! Cooking and having lunch overlooking the winery was magical! The castle/fortress tour was also super informative and really enjoyable! Gaia was our hostess for cooking and she was AMAZING! Alice was our tour guide for the castle and she was FANTASTIC too! We had the best time celebrating a birthday here! Can’t wait to come back!!!
