This cooking class was one of the highlights of my trip to Florence. The chef was patient, passionate, and full of interesting tips about Italian cuisine. We enjoyed an amazing meal at the end, and I left feeling inspired with ideas to recreate recipes at home. A must to anyone visiting Florence.

Pasta party

Christa_A, Jun 2026

This was a good time in a small group setting. Expert cooking instruction with personality! Guilio has heart and brings the energy and love to the table. And the meal at the end was delicious! Great time, great conversations, great music!

Go to have fun and you...

Go to have fun and you get to make pasta too! A nice walk from the city center of Florence. Met a lot of nice people as we made pasta and ate.

The BEST Experience Ever!

Lance_D, Apr 2026

If you had to pick one experience to do while you are in Florence this should be it! If I could give Giulio ten stars I absolutely would! My two grown sons will remember and talk about this for the rest of their lives! We had the best time!! We not only fell in love with Florence but we fell in love with Giulio! Thank you for going above and beyond!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

Fun pasta making activity

Sahara_P, Mar 2026

The pasta making class was a fun activity for one evening in Florence. Our chef was fun and engaging. Just don’t arrive hungry because it takes 2 1/2 hours to make the pasta and there’s no food available before then.

This cooking class was...

Yum!

Great experience, great value! My wife and I had lots of fun, improving our pasta making skills. Went straight home and bought a pasta maker to try this on our friends and family. Thank you!

of I could give this 10 stars I would!

Jacqueline_G, Oct 2025

This was the most fun we have had on an excursion so far! Gulio was an incredible teacher. He was entertaining and enthusiastic which made the pasta making such an amazing experience! At the end you eat the pasta you made which made this incredible experience even better! Words do not express what a great experience this was!

Great fun and great...

Joy_A, Sep 2025

Great fun and great value! Making pasta is not as daunting as I expected--especially when you have great teaching and fun involved! We loved it!

A very bad experience....

MariaJose_M, Mar 2026

A very bad experience. First they tell us it had to be in the morning and wanting to cancel then they tell us yes in the afternoon. The experience had to be in Italian and it was in English. Food without sauce almost. Hygiene standards were not met for everyone. People with mobile phones and making the dough, loose hair and cameras. Very expensive for a bad glass of wine. No animation. No contests and very long and boring. I wouldn't repeat anymore.

Response from Host, May 2026

We respect every opinion, but we are sincerely saddened to read a review that DOES NOT reflect what actually happened during the experience. 1. The class took place exactly at the originally booked time (19:15). Due to an unexpected health issue involving the chef, we had proposed an optional alternative earlier in the day, but once you informed us that changing the schedule was not possible for you, we organized and paid for an additional chef so the class could proceed exactly as planned. 2. Regarding the language, the listing clearly states that the class is held in English, while the staff also speaks Italian and understands some Spanish. Our experiences are international by nature and groups may therefore be mixed. 3. We would also like to clarify the misunderstanding regarding the wine. We serve Chianti Classico Gallo Nero, a certified and high-quality wine. Some participants had different booking packages through different reservation channels, some of which included additional consumptions, and this may unfortunately have created confusion. 4. As for hygiene rules, we strictly follow all health and safety regulations required by the local authorities, and our staff constantly reminds guests to respect the rules during the preparation. 5. We are truly sorry that you did not experience the evening in the spirit with which our project was created: to build a warm, family-style and international atmosphere where people from all over the world can cook, meet and share a special moment together. Fortunately, even that same evening, the other participants left extremely positive reviews that much more closely reflect the experience we work hard every day to offer with passion and heart. In light of these clarifications, should you ever wish to reconsider your review, we would of course appreciate it very much. In any case, we sincerely wish you all the best and send you a warm hug, in the same family spirit that defines our experience. Serafina & Family Guest Experience Team

Excellent option if you are in Florence.

Francisco_B, Mar 2026

Giulio is a great chef: even if you thought you knew everything about making pasta, with him you will learn to improve your technique. Class is dynamic and fun, laughter is guaranteed. While a tourist class, it is a more local vibe, making it an excellent choice to meet new people on a Friday or Saturday night.
