This was a really fun experience. It was a mix of eating, drinking and making food. The tour started with tasting some really amazing food including cheeses, balsamic vinegar, and pesto, all accompanied by prosecco which was indeed free flowing. We then walked to a nearby restaurant to make pasta and tiramisu which we ate at the end. All the guides were knowledgeable and entertaining.

Such a great experience. Rome can be heavy on the step front so was nice to do something quite relaxing for a few hours. The hosts were very good; hospitable, knowledgeable, entertaining. Good quality ingredients, wine and coffee! Would absolutely recommend and do again!

Perfect authentic Italian cooking experience!

What a wonderful experience! My husband & I took my 80 year old parents with us, and it was such a special time! My mother and I have MS and are in mobility scooters. They were extremely accommodating! So much fun and amazing food that I will be making for years! Thank you!

Had fun while we pasta the time.

DK_K, Jan 2026
Simone was excellent. Instructive. Patient. The group of random strangers also made it interesting. Met very interesting people from different backgrounds. Everyone in the class was great. Had a very nice time when we all sat down to eat what we had made. Our family will do something like this again. Kids loved it. But my kids are older, in their 20’s. Would not recommend for younger kids.

Did the 9:30am option with a family member, it was hosted at Il Segreto. We had a wonderful time and met some really cool people also doing the class. We made individual tiramisu cups, then made ravioli’s & fettuccine noodles.

Lots of fun!

We started with wine and appetizers while learning about the particular cheeses and appetizers we were tasting. We then went to a restaurant where we made fettuccine and ravioli and tiramisu. It was well organized and great fun. More food than we could ever eat. One of our best experiences in Rome.

My friend and I had a great time at the cooking class at Il Segreto. The staff were friendly, fun, lighthearted and very helpful! The wine and food were all amazing. Would highly recommend if you're looking to do something hands on in Rome!

Where did the time go?

Akshay_A, Sep 2025
The energy from the presenters is unreal. As you get there and settle in to wait for others to arrive, have a welcome drink and know that you won’t be disappointed! I had such a great time with the crew. The bar tender was little crazy, but the owner assured me he wasn’t dangerous just fun lol. I can attest to this. Our host explained everything as we went through the process, and there was simply something so cool about preparing and making your own meal! The tiramisu was amazing, wine tasted great, and the people that participated all had a wonderful time. Don’t sleep on this experience (seriously - I did the 930am class lol). Book it and have some fun!

Exceptional

Linda_J, Aug 2025
The experience was awesome! We were able to taste a lot of Italian specialties and cheeses along with Prosecco prior to our cooking class. The cooking class was very fun and interactive. We learned to make pasta and ravioli and tiramisu and everything was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend John and iL Segreco restaurant for this excursion.

Highly recommended tour to do in Rome

Nicola_C, Aug 2025
We had such a great time with this tour. We had an Italian tasting of food and wine to start. Our host was so informative and funny, with lots of interactivity. The pasta and dessert making was so much fun. We totally enjoyed the whole day. Thank you.

Definitely book it!

What a wonderful experience! Delicious appetizers with some fun history of some of Italy’s best delicacies, followed by a fun (and delicious) cooking class! I went solo and made several new friends. Nina and Jan were amazing hosts and teachers. Definitely recommend!!

Rachel_R, Jun 2025
Such a fun experience! We loved learning how to make pasta and tiramisu from scratch—everything was hands-on and easy to follow. Great atmosphere with plenty of laughs, delicious food, and a fun way to meet people from all over. Definitely a highlight of our trip!

One of our best experiences in Italy

Abriana_B, Jun 2025
This was honestly such an amazing experience. From the food tasting in the beginning that was informative and allowed the group to get to know each other to the party like cooking class everything was amazing. Come hungry, come ready to drink wine, a lot of wine, and come ready to have fun!

Pasta Making and More!

Kathleen_A, May 2025
It was amazing!! It was a food tasting at a beautiful cafe and pasta making class a short walk at a really fun restaurant. They are very generous with the wine. Both locations are closed to the public during the event so we had all their attention. It was educational, delicious and so much fun! Lis at the cafe and Patrick at the restaurant are fantastic!

A fun time

Great Experience, Amazing Food!

Yolonda_S, Jan 2025
This was such a fun class!!! It was neat to learn how to make our own homemade pasta, and the best part, it was absolutely delicious!!

Free flowing fun

We had the greatest group and hosts. So much food, Prosecco and wine. Great time and value. I would recommend this tour to anyone. Go hungry .

Delicious roman food

Janning_E, Dec 2024
I enjoyed this experience so much!! It was my first time doing pasta and tiramisu. First we had delicious aperitivos with lots of Prosecco at La Nicchia Cafe. The tour guide explained everything we ate. Then we walked to il Segreto restaurant where we made the tiramisu and the two types of pasta. They gave us more Prosecco and two different wines. I had a great time. I highly recommend this experience.

Lots of wine, even more laughs!

Dustin_A, Dec 2024
Quite educational wine tasting/pairing. We had a small group, met some new people, and enjoyed a wonderful afternoon/early evening. Both locations, the initial meeting cafe and eventual restaurant were perfect for the occasion. Everyone was friendly and fun. It totally made the experience amazing! Lots of wine, even more laughs!

Amazing and well worth it

Andrew_O, Nov 2024
This was an amazing experience and memory we will cherish. Our host was Eddy and he was the perfect host for this experience. Met new friends, learned about Roman food history and learned how to cook authentic Roman pasta. Thank you!!!

Go. Go. Just go. Do it.

Nancy_R, Oct 2024
Start to finish, this was one of my most memorable travel experiences yet, and I’ve been on 6 continents. From Lis’s warm and welcoming tasting guidance all the way through Carlo’s expert cooking instruction, my daughter and I delighted in the whole afternoon.

The best experience cooking!

Victoria_M, Oct 2024
This was by far one of the best experiences I had in Rome. Not only did we cook, but we started off with an appetizer course that taught us a little bit about Italy and their cooking which I thoroughly enjoyed. After the appetizer, we walked to the restaurant where we made tiramisu and two pasta dishes. We all sat and ate our pastas, drank wine, and made new friends! Lees, Carlo, and staff were amazing to say the least. They made you feel at home and laughed a lot. I would recommend this experience for anyone who loves to cook, wants to learn how to cook, or anyone who enjoys a good time!

Best pasta class in Rome

Phillip_E, Oct 2024
This was a wonderful class. The hosts were friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. We started with a sampler of appetizers and wine while waiting for the chef to prepare at the restaurant. We then walked several blocks to the restaurant where we prepared the tiramisu dessert. The chef was wonderful and explained everything. After the tiramisu, we made fettuccine followed by ravioli. The sauces were prepared by the cook and provided. All of the pasta was cooked and the meal was served family-style at a large table that seated the entire group. Can't say enough good things. This was our favorite tour of out 5-week southern Europe vacation. Also, the meeting point was just one block away from the metro station, making it super easy to reach.
