Sorrento: Cook Like a Local with a Stunning Sea View
Description
The experience take place in the seaview grandmother villa, where we live together from when i was born. Are you ready to discover the unique flavors of the local cuisine transmitted by my grandmother, while exploring our traditional Italian lifestyle? The experience is hands-on and you can learn some valuable cooking skills and tips. Here you will be the chef and the diner, learning to cook the specialties of our cuisine, handed down to me by my grandmother! You will learn new cooking techniques, all from the scratch that you can easily replicate at home, such as learning how to make gnocchi, eggplant parmesan and the typical tiramsù. You will be completely immersed in the Italian lifestyle in a convivial atmosphere among lemon and olive trees, and I show you also how we produce olive oil and limoncello. My goal is that this experience remains in your mind but above all in your heart!

Cristiano was very personable and made the experience amazing! It was a great experience and would recommend 10/10 ! Lots of fun and learning !
Exceptional and so worth it! The whole experience was a show. Cristiano and his Momma were the best. Food was delicious even for the pickiest eater in the group.
Great time. Great guide. Had lots of fun and amazing food. Had a problem with transport and they were very helpful
My family attended the cooking class at Penisola Experience yesterday. Overall, it was a fun and engaging experience. We enjoyed learning how to prepare traditional Italian dishes. The place was nice and Cristiano’s storytelling made for an entertaining experience. Unfortunately, the experience was overshadowed by an incident that I found very disrespectful. During the class, Cristiano asked participants to step back from the table, but I did not hear him. Instead of repeating himself, he threw a hand towel at my face from half way across the room to get my attention. While he may have intended it as a joke, I found it offensive and inappropriate. As paying customers, we deserve to be treated with respect. It’s unfortunate that an otherwise enjoyable experience ended on such a disappointing note.
Incredible experience and a ton of fun
Cristiano was an amazing host! He was so vivacious and made the whole experience so much fun. I would highly recommend this cooking class to anyone who visits Sorrento!! -Maddie and Mady
A truly refined and exemplary experience! This family-owned and operated cooking experience was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Italy. We visited with two families of four, including both adults and teenagers, and every one of us had an incredible time. From beginning to end, the entire experience was flawlessly orchestrated. The hosts have clearly perfected every detail. The son, who served as the master of ceremonies, brought such infectious energy, warmth, and charisma that he made everyone feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Perfectly timed Italian music added to the atmosphere throughout, making the experience feel authentic, lively, and unforgettable. The pacing was impeccable. We moved effortlessly from one activity to the next, with every transition feeling natural and unhurried. By the time we had finished preparing our meal and were relaxing outside with a glass of delicious vino, the dining room had been beautifully prepared for us to sit down and enjoy the feast we had created together. It wasn’t just a cooking class—it was a thoughtfully curated experience that celebrated Italian hospitality, family, food, and culture. We left with wonderful memories, full stomachs, and smiles on our faces. Perfetto!
This was the most amazing experience had the best time with the most delicious food. Very entertaining and enjoyable, highly recommend!!!
