Corso di cucina in un Frantoio Storico vicino al Lago Trasimeno

A really lovely relaxed, informative, and delicious experience!

Francesco was wonderful! He was engaging and the food was delicious. We even had a dietary restriction (no dairy) and he was able to accommodate! A truly lovely experience and would recommend to anyone!

Francesco was fantastic, great host and Greta conversation while preparing the meal. Also, the area around the olive mill is quaint and worth a visit and walking around after the class. Highly recommend!

The four of us had an amazing class! Francesco is extremely patient, funny, kind and such an excellent chef. He taught us all about olives, the history of olive oil processing and how growers share their products with the world today. Francesco taught us how to make the most delicious ravioli just the way his Nonna taught him. We highly recommend this experience. We are so happy we did it!

Best cooking class! Francesco is an amazing instructor. So friendly and very talented. We loved making the spinach ravioli, bruschetta, and traditional almond bread! The olive oil tasting and mill setting on the lake was so interesting and beautiful. It was the perfect morning. Low key, fun, and not too laborious as much of our group doesn’t cook back home. A memory we will keep for a long time!! Don’t miss out if you’re in this area!

Francesco was absolutely wonderful! He managed to brilliantly teach six very energetic young women and still make me feel a part of the class as someone who could have been their mom. I learned a lot and couldn’t recommend the experience more.

We had a wonderful morning spent on Lake Trasimeno with Francesco! The mill was easy to find and navigate with great parking. Seeing the tour of the olive oil mill and learning about the process was very interesting. We loved being able to purchase products from the mill. Francesco was a great teacher, we made homemade bruschetta, spinach ricotta ravioli and cantucci biscuits. All were delicious with great company! Highly recommend.

We are 3 life long friends traveling through Italy and this was a great experience. Started with a tour of the garden and the old mill. Francesco gave a brief history on how olive oil was once produced at the mill. The large terracotta jugs that were once used to store oil are spectacular! We then made ravioli and cantucci. Delicious!! Francesco was very relaxed and easy to take instruction from. We had a lovely lunch with bruchetta, wine, ravioli and cantucci. Francesco also had us taste the different oils they produce. Nice relaxed afternoon! I highly recommend!

I can’t say enough good things about this experience! We had such a wonderful time. Francesco was a warm host and we joyed not only the cooking but the company as well. We were also lucky to meet the owner of the facility, and thoroughly enjoyed him as well. And, it’s a really cool venue too. Highly recommend.

Booked in afternoon on 8/28 Booking confirmed. At 10:38 pm tour was cancelled stating that tour organizer had a scheduled medical visit. When booking we were advised we could not cancel and receive a refund because shorter than 24 hours notice. Disappointed since it showed availability and we got confirmation. We had also booked a car which we couldn’t cancel and lost car rental fee.
