Chef Lucas was absolutely incredible! He made this culinary experience both deeply informative and unbelievably fun! We loved discovering the true science and art behind pizza making, plus mastering a quick, mouthwatering substitute dessert of tiramisu. I highly recommend this for families, but it's so fantastic that they should definitely offer an adult-only version too!

Overview

Naples is the birthplace of pizza, which makes it the ideal place to learn the craft from the pros. In this hands-on class, a local chef shows you how to knead, season, and bake your own pizza from scratch, before moving on to artisanal gelato made with fresh ingredients using traditional methods. After the work is done, sit down to enjoy your creations with wine or beer.
  • Learn the secrets behind Neapolitan pizza in this chef-led class in Naples
  • Pair your meal with a glass of wine or beer included in the price
  • Gain the skills to be able to recreate your dishes at home
  • Choose from multiple start times throughout the day to suit you

Family Activity

Aaron_S, Aug 2026
Our family had such a wonderful time at Chef Alex's pizza and gelato class! It was the perfect mix of hands-on learning, delicious food, and fun for everyone. Chef Alex was welcoming, knowledgeable, and made the experience engaging for both adults and kids. We loved making our own authentic pizza from scratch and learning the techniques behind the perfect dough. The gelato was just as amazing, and it was a treat to create and enjoy it together as a family. This class was more than just a cooking lesson—it was a memorable experience filled with laughter, great food, and quality family time. We highly recommend Chef Alex's class to anyone looking for a fun and authentic culinary experience. We can't wait to do it again!

It was a lot of fun! Our Chef was friendly, engaging and funny! He included everyone in the class! Even my 84 year old mother was laughing and having a great time!

HIghlight of our trip!

Tricia_T, Jul 2026
Highlight of our trip! Had so much fun learning how to make authentic margherita pizza. Our chef, Issam, was wonderful and fun! You have to book this experience!

Manuel-what an experience

Laura_P, Jul 2026
This class with Manuel was a memorable experience! From one teacher to another, Manuel was patient. Manuel was passionate. Manuel was very clear with his instructions. His love and education for pizza has shown through in class because we all created great pizzas!! I recommend this to anyone who wants to learn how to make pizza and gelato! The gelato was great too! It was my birthday and he acknowledged it with the class. This made it mor special.

Great Family activity

Adriana_P, Jul 2026
This was a blast! Our group was 2 families, 4 adults and 4 kids (11, 9, 8, 4). Everyone had a great time and did a great job making the pizza. We received a WhatsApp message the morning of the class that the gelato chef had an accident and we would only make pizza. For the inconvenience, they refunded us $10 each and we got it automatically.

Fun activity

15-20 minute drive from cruise port. A fun class. Gelato was average. Pizza came out ok. Save some room to try pizza on Toledo street.

Manuel was a great host. He was very fun and engaging and made the activity very accessible for all participants.

Wonderful Experience

Kathryn_M, Jul 2026
Such a wonderful experience for the whole family. We were a family of 6 and we sat we two other families each 3 people. Luca was our lead chef- he was hilarious, got all the kids involved (ages 6-16) by having them assist him in demonstrations, and educated us about the history of Pizza and Gelato. We started by making the gelato- so it wouod be ready after we ate our pizza. We made dough, but it's not the dough we cooked and ate because it has to sit for 24 hours. We then made our Margherita pizzas with dough that had been made 24-48 hours earlier. Don't worry not by earlier participants. The pizza was amazing!! If you want something fun and educational I highly recommend this experience to all ages.

Stick to Pizza

Nichole_S, Jun 2026
We did the pizza and Gelato making class. I took my husband because he loves making homemade pizza but we havent found a good dough recipe yet. Manuel definitely taught him a lot of new things that I am hoping we will be able to reciprocate back home. Oyr Gelato wasnt the best but the pizza was amazing and so was Manuel. Manuel was funny and engaging, he did a great job.

Pizza Pizza!!

I would pass

annette_w, Jun 2026
Misleading. We did not make gelato. We watched 2 of the group make plain ice cream. It wasn’t gelato. And just one small glass of wine at the end of 2.5 hrs.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the experience did not fully meet your expectations. Our Pizza & Gelato Cooking Class in Naples is designed as a hands-on culinary experience where guests learn how to prepare authentic Neapolitan pizza and discover the techniques behind Italian gelato making. Depending on the size and flow of the group, some steps of the gelato preparation may be demonstrated with selected participants while the whole class follows the explanation, ingredients, and method. We are sorry if this part felt less interactive than expected. However, we are very proud of the quality of our Naples cooking class, the passion of our chefs, and the many guests who describe this experience as fun, authentic, and memorable. Our many 5-star reviews speak for themselves and reflect the care we put into every class. Regarding the drink, the included beverage is provided as described in the experience details.

Such a great experience! We went with our family and another family, 8 total, ages ranging from 15 to 58, and we all had a fantastic time! Kitchen experience ranged from rookie to caterer, and we all had a great time. MAURO was the ultimate chef and host!! Definitely recommend him, as he was funny and high energy!

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that your whole family and group had such a fantastic time during our Pizza & Gelato Cooking Class in Naples. It is great to know that guests of different ages and different cooking levels — from beginners to more experienced food lovers — all enjoyed the hands-on experience.

Thank you again for recommending our Naples cooking class. We hope to welcome you and your family back soon for another fun and authentic Italian food experience!

Napoli pizza making

Catherine_M, Jun 2026
Great experience! Our chef was personable and friendly. He shared great facts about the pizza making process and told people in the group, no matter where they were from, which products they could use at home, to make a pizza. This hands on experience included everyone and was a nice way to meet other travelers.

Treat yourself to a joy in life and add to your repertoire!

Angela_T, Jun 2026
Had a lovely time traveling solo and partaking in an authentic Napoli pizza making experience. Isaam was a personable and energetic teacher and added to the flavor of the class. It was well organized and fun was had by all. Recommend this class and the pasta class being held next to us looked enticing as well. Treat yourself to a fun cultural immersion learning experience. Rated it a 4 star though because I had signed up for a pizza and gelato class and when I arrived was informed there were not enough participants so was moved to a tiramisu class vs gelato without prior notice. Flexibility in travel allows you to be gracious and appreciative… dive in, enjoy, and let things unfold!

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We are very happy to hear that you had a lovely time as a solo traveler and enjoyed our authentic Napoli pizza making experience. Isaam will be delighted to know that his energy, personality, and teaching style helped make the class fun, well organized, and engaging for everyone. Our goal is always to offer a hands-on Naples cooking class where guests can enjoy a real cultural immersion, learn the traditions of Neapolitan pizza, and share a warm Italian food experience with other travelers. We are also sorry that your original Pizza & Gelato Class was changed to Pizza & Tiramisu without prior notice. We truly appreciate your flexibility and positive attitude, but we understand that better communication should have been provided in advance. Your feedback is very helpful for us to improve the experience and the way we inform our guests. Thank you again for recommending our pizza class in Naples — and also for mentioning our pasta class! We hope to welcome you back soon for another authentic Italian culinary experience.

Fun class and great experience!
