This was one of our favorite memories from our trip to Florence. Luca, our host, was so funny that he had every age person in our class laughing. He made the experience feel personal! The class is so interactive that it made it go by quickly. By the end we felt like we had gotten to know so many different people from around the world. This class surpassed all of my expectations and I would highly recommend visiting this beautiful property for your cooking class experience.

This was the most amazing tour! Luca was outstanding. The tour begins at the market where you collect some ingredients for your lunch, then take a NICE bus to the estate. The views of Florence are picturesque. Luca and Carmela were the best! We learned how to make bruschetta, pasta, bolognese, pork roast, and tiramisu. One tour that I would definitely repeat!

This class was so fun and Luca was so fun! We began at the market and learned about the stands and the the food there and bought food for our lunch. Then we may our way to the estate with a beautiful view for the class. Everyone got involved in preparing our lunch for the day. Will be taking the knowledge home with us for sure! This class came highly recommended to us from friends and we also recommend!

I am so glad i booked this tour. It is one of the best tours I’ve ever done. Luca was an amazing host and took us to the market in the morning to buy our produce for our cooking class and gave us lots of yum tips and recipes along the way. We then got on a private air conditioned bus which took us to the estate and I was blown away by how beautiful it was. The class was interactive and we all got a turn to help Luca and Carmela cook whilst they taught us. Making our own pasta and tiramisu was so much fun and then eating everything we made together with that stunning view topped it all off. 1000000% would recommend booking this. Do not even hesitate!!
