It was a great experience! We learned how to cook several items not just those promised. Daniela was lovely! She explained and shared recipes with me that I was interested in. She made it fun and I would highly recommend this for others interested in learning how to make some Italian dishes.

This tour could’ve have been more perfect. Gianni and Daniela were charming, warm, and knowledgeable hosts. It truly felt like cooking with my grandma! The food was excellent and taught in a way that I can attempt to replicate when I get home!

Daniela and Jonny were so kind and welcoming to us. We had the most precious and unforgettable time with them. Through meals, conversations and time together, we learned about the italian culture as well as the hosts themselves, their stories. They were so humble, generous and down to earth. My husband and I enjoyed every minute of it. They even invited us back the next day for lunch because our plan has gotten cancelled due to rain. We are so grateful that we met the hosts on this trip. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to learn how to cook authentic italian food and experience the local culture.

Doing all the steps to make the whole meal and then sitting down to eat it with the hosts! Everything from appetizers to dessert!

Finding Anna’s place was a little tricky because the address isn’t displayed on the street, and the address she gives you is her next door neighbor. We just texted her when we arrived and she came down the hill to get us. Once at the house it was like you were sitting down with family you hadn’t seen in a long time. Anna was the perfect hostess. We chit-chatted a bit, enjoyed some cheese and Prosecco, then started the pasta making. We made spinach and ricotta ravioli, tagliatelle, and then tiramisu. After lunch Anna’s grandmother-in-law joined us, and we toured the property a little bit. What an amazing, wonderful pure Italian experience! This was the highlight of our 7-day cruise.

We had a wonderful time doing the cooking class at Daniela’s house. Upon arriving she welcomed us into her home and truly immersed us in the culture. She made delicious appetizers for us and served us wine. She went into detail explaining everything she served us, the process of preparing it, and what ingredients are needed. Additionally, when making the pasta and tiramisu she let us get hands on with kneading the dough, rolling it out, cutting and shaping it. We then got try all the delicious dishes and she brought out even more food and wine for us to have. You could tell her passion for cooking and her love for teaching others how to make her recipes. At the end of the experience she brought out some fresh peaches and marscopone cream for us to have and some of her homemade liquors. It was nice having a small group cooking class in someone’s house, it made the experience feel more authentic. We loved getting to hear her stories and learn about everyone else in the class. Upon leaving she sent us with the recipes for all the things we made which was extremely kind of her. I would highly recommend booking a class with Daniella, you won’t regret it.

We had the best time ever with Daniella and learned how to make tagliatelle with pesto, tiramisu, and a red meat sauce. It felt like we were cooking with family!

Great time shared with Daniela and her husband. We learned many things (especially about gnocchis) and ate very tasty and good food. Some receipes are easy to prepare and so delicious (sgabei for example).

I don’t even have words to express how wonderful this experience was for our small group of 4. Roberta and Ricardo not only opened their beautiful home to us, but they made us feel like family too! The food was beyond amazing. In fact, no other Italian food we ever eat will be as good! This was a once in a lifetime experience we will NEVER forget.
