Pizza & Gelato Cooking Class in Rome, Hands-On Italian Experience
Description
This class offers an authentic and personal approach to two of Italy’s most beloved specialties: pizza and gelato. Instead of watching a demonstration, travelers actively prepare both recipes step-by-step together with a professional local chef, learning real Italian techniques in a welcoming and relaxed environment. The experience takes place in central Rome, just a short walk from Piazza Navona, making it easy to include in any itinerary. Travelers enjoy high-quality ingredients, personalized guidance, and the satisfaction of creating and tasting their own pizza and gelato. This combination of hands-on learning, cultural insight, and a delicious final meal makes the class memorable for guests of all ages.

Our family of four, including two girls ages 11 and 8, really enjoyed our pizza and gelato making experience. Mattia was a wonderful teacher - he walked us through and explained each step with such knowledge and patience, and was very sweet with the kids. The food itself was delicious and to know we made it ourselves enhanced the experience even more. Highly recommend!!

Our instructor/chef Leo was great. I’ve cooked fresh pasta before in the past and still learned some new things. He did a great job of making it both adult and kid friendly. I would highly recommend this as a must do while in Rome. Also we got to eat our food that we made and a lil booklet with recipes outside of what we cooked included which added to the value fs.
