Pasta and Tiramisu Cooking Class with optional Local Market Tour
Description
This tour is unique because it offers a fully immersive, hands-on culinary experience in the heart of Florence. You'll start by visiting the authentic Sant’Ambrogio Market with a professional chef to select fresh, local ingredients: just like a true Florentine. Back in a real Tuscan trattoria, you’ll learn to prepare traditional dishes like tagliatelle, ravioli, and tiramisù entirely from scratch. The small group format ensures personal guidance and an intimate, friendly atmosphere. Along the way, you'll hear stories about Italian food culture, enjoy Tuscan appetizers, and sit down to savor the meal you've created, paired with a glass of local wine. It’s more than a cooking class: it’s a true taste of Italian life.

The class was very fun and engaging. Chef Giu was very flexible with my dairy- free request. He not only made the class fun for the adults but engaging for my son. The food was delicious as was the dessert. Don't think twice about booking the cooking class, just do it! Bonus he had good taste in background music...🤘
Excellent class. The instructor Gui was an excellent teacher; very welcoming. He was patient and provided details. The food was delicious and dessert was very accommodating to our dairy-free needs. We would definitely take this class again, and would recommend it to anyone who is thinking about taking a cooking class.
This is ABSOLUTELY worth every penny and second. We had Alan and Fabio as our tour guides for the morning session, and it was fun, entertaining, and very educational. We felt at home and would return just to experience this again with them!
Alan and Fabio were fantastic!! The whole experience from start to finish was short by AMAZING!! Food so GOOD.. don’t think twice and book it.
Our family of 4 had an excellent morning learning how to cook with Gi. He is so friendly and helped the kids feel confident. We had a great experience, thank you!
We did a pizza and cannoli making class with Tobia and had the best time. He was very helpful and guided us through the entire process. We'd happily book again and can't recommend it enough 😁
What a wonderful, personal experience with Tobia, making pizza and cannoli! A very friendly person who really took the time to chat to us and answer our questions as well as teach us how to make these delicious foods! The other colleagues there were also so friendly and professional! Such a great experience that we would do again! Thank you Tobia!!! ❤️
My family of 5 loved this cooking class! Orietta was fantastic! Not only did we learn several cooking tips, but had so much fun while doing it. She was very knowledgeable, entertaining and welcoming! The length of time was perfect (two teens in our group) and the lunch was delicious! Highly recommend this experience while in Florence.

This was, without question, one of the most enjoyable and memorable experiences of our trip. From the moment the class began, Fabio’s warmth, enthusiasm, and deep knowledge of Italian cooking set the tone for a relaxed and engaging afternoon. Fabio guided us step by step through the art of making fresh pasta and tiramisu, sharing tips, techniques, and stories along the way that made the experience feel authentic and personal. His teaching style was patient, encouraging, and incredibly well-paced, ensuring everyone felt confident and involved regardless of experience level. The atmosphere was fun and intimate, the food was absolutely delicious, and the sense of accomplishment at the end made it even more rewarding. More than just a cooking class, it was a genuine cultural experience brought to life by an outstanding instructor. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to truly taste Italy.
