Fun time and great pizza!
We had a wonderful and fun time making pizza and tiramisu! Great teacher! The pizza was excellent. We got to cook it in a traditional brick oven. I was terrible at stretching dough but there was no shortage of laughter. It was just my husband and I since it was off season while we were there. I think this is a wonderful activity for a couple or a group. Definitely a fun time!

Amazing experience!!
The cooking class took place in a magical location with amazing views! We truly enjoyed the cooking, especially with easy communication with the hosts! We were worried about driving home after sunset but it wasn’t difficult.

Fantastic experience in a beautiful Tuscon setting!
It was truly a one of a kind experience and far exceeded our expectations. Not only was the setting magnificent, and the views breathtaking but the personalized service we received in the class was so perfect. We loved the food we prepared and the staff was great. After a small break, the food was served to us by their wait staff in a lovely setting on an outside patio. Can’t say enough how fantastic it was. A “must do” in Tuscany!

Fun class at an...
Fun class at an Agriturismo with another couple. The teacher, Laura, was very helpful and extremely patient with our lackluster culinary skills. It was a lot of fun and ended with a great meal that we made for ourselves! The wine served with our meal was also very good. Well worth the time and cost.

Summary
The organization of the course was poor. We didn't get a welcome drink and the cook didn't speak good English.
We didn't get a recipe and all in all it was very disorganized.
Value for money - for what we got - the price of food was not justified either.
The boss was nice and tried hard. But the price was far too high.

Amazing Cooking Class!
Our cooking class was absolutely amazing! The day and time we picked just so happened to be just me and my husband, so we had a lovely intimate class. The class was at a small local farm in Montepulciano. The owner showed us all around the farm and the home, he was so clearly excited and proud of his home. We made a dessert, bruschetta, and pasta. He spoke very good english and was so fun to chat with! We learned so much and would absolutely recommend this class to anyone visiting Tuscany!

Nice
The class was very nice - the food she had us make was delicious (except for the chicken liver pate/spread - I don't like the taste of liver in any form.) Our instructor was very nice and patient. Her English was little hard to understand but we got by in the harder parts with translation app.
