Discover Messina: Pizza and Pasta Making Tour in Taormina - Tania did an excellent job with our tour. She was informative and was prepared with waters and a local snack. Once we arrived in charming Taormina, we shopped then entered the restaurant where we began making different pasta styles. We then had time to sample cheeses, meats, and wines before we began making pizza doughs followed by time next to the pizza oven to top our pizzas and bake them. The finished products were delicious! The restaurant staff were also very helpful and enthusiastic. Our family highly recommends this tour.

Quote from the kids “best day of my life” - Sara was a dream tour guide. She was friendly, knowledgeable and became part of our family while we explored the beautiful town of Taormina. We learned how to make pasta and were shown several different ways to roll macaroni. We then made pizza dough and added toppings to our pizzas. This was our favorite tour on our 9 day cruise. Sara, the town, the food and wine were all the highlights. We had 5 children with us 8,5,3,2 &1 and this was the perfect tour to keep them entertained and involved. We will be back!

Great Pasta and Pizza Class! - Outstanding adventure! We had a great time visiting Taormina and making pasta and pizza! Pepe met us at the ship in Messina and took us to Taormina. He guided us through the town and left us in the capable cooking class hands at Porta Messina. After class, we ate our creations with wine and drink. We had a little time for shopping, then back to the ship. A great excursion in Messina!

Great cruise excursion! - This was a fantastic tour! Cecilia was so fun and shared many interesting tidbits about Sicilian life. My 2 tween daughters loved the pasta and pizza making and everything was delicious. We also enjoyed the free time to walk around the Main Street and do some shopping! Highly recommend.
