From pick up, to drop off , this was the most unforgettable experience ! The drive up the hills to this family farm was breathtaking . The cooking experience was so educational and fun ! Our cooking instructor , Giuseppe was so passionate about the food and immersed us into his cooking world . The food that we made was easy and delicious and Giuseppe provided us with take home recipes . They even paused the cooking so that we could take in the most amazing sunset overlooking the town of Sorrento down below . I am so happy that I chose this cooking experience because it was way more than just a cooking lesson . We later enjoyed our meal at a beautiful table with the most gorgeous backdrop . I couldn't recommend this experience enough !

This cooking class with Valentina and Antonio was truly one of the most special parts of my trip. Being welcomed into their personal home, cooking with ingredients from their own garden, and sharing stories around the table felt like being with family I didn’t know I had. Their homemade limoncello from their own trees was unforgettable, and every dish we made tasted incredible. I’m so glad we chose them. The whole experience felt personal, warm, and full of genuine connection. It’s a memory I won’t forget, and I left feeling inspired — like I can actually cook again.

Exceptional experience! My non-cooking partner actually learned how to cook. Valentina and Tonio were patient, warm, attentive and an excellent team. Everyone should do this activity if you are anywhere near Sorrento. The home is lovely and well -appointed.

Cooking delicious food with Valentina and Antonio was the highlight of our trip! We cooked outside in their beautiful, sunlit garden surrounded by lemon and orange trees. What a delightful experience with locals who love to share their veggies and herbs from the garden. Thank you for welcoming us so warmly in your home and cooking a beautiful meal together!

We had a fabulous time. It is a small family run course with a lot of attention to detail and quality. We were shown where they grow their own produce and the cooking proces was fun and easy. The meal was delicious and the host was good company. We can heartily recommend to book this and want to come back next time we're in Sorrento!

A fabulous experience in the home of some local Sorrentinos. Marianna and her family went above and beyond to make our experience special. We toured their gardens, where all our fresh ingredients came from, had a few spritzes then got down to cooking . Truly a family affair. Mother , father, sister, brother and even family friends all help our. Each were very open to answering our questions and sharing stories. A memorable evening we’ll cherish for years to come.

Add the wine, lemoncello, lemon cake dessert, tour of the grounds/farm, and the spectacular view...easily one of our best excursions/experiences here in Sorrento! Highly recommend!
