Amazing Class - Also known as CookEatSquare, this cooking class was exceptional - the foraging was such a unique addition and the food was spectacular! We loved the focus on seasonal and local products (including the most delicious cheeses and local flour for pasta). Our teacher, Luisa, was so fun and knowledgeable. She went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. This was a major highlight of our trip. Highly recommend!

Unforgettable Cooking Experience in a Gorgeous Setting - This cooking experience was definitely a highlight of our trip to the Amalfi coast. We stayed in Positano, but it was so nice to leave our area to see Praiano with Giacomo and Luisa. Both guides are passionate about teaching others their craft. The village is beautiful and clean and our guides gave us a fantastic history of the food culture from the area as we made our way to the kitchen. The location and views were spectacular!! We used the freshest ingredients to make our meal, which was simple but outstanding. We are a family of four with two teenagers, and they loved the experience as well. We will definitely take home and apply what we learned. The almond and arugula pesto on home-made pasta was amazing!

Hands on cooking class with beautiful views. - Great cooking class with education regarding the use of local ingredients to create wonderful meals. Giamcomo and Luisa were great teachers. The venue for the very hands on cooking portion of the class was beautiful. I would recommend if you want to learn a little about local farming and have a hands on cooking class. It was a great way to spend a half a day in Praiano.

Amazing experience!!! - What an amazing experience! We walked through Praiano learning about the culture and history of Italian cuisine, we picked herbs along the way, and saw some incredible views! Lots of steps but worth it all once we got to the cooking spot and feasted on some delicious food! Francisco was a wonderful guide and chef and so knowledgeable. The group was intimate so we had a fun time sharing stories and laughing over our struggles making the cavatelli pasta! We made apps, sage chips (sooo good), fresh pesto sauce, pasta and dessert! We even used some of the herbs we picked along the way in our cooking. Overall an amazing experience and worth every penny!

Outstanding walking garden tour on the Almafi Coast with cooking class! - Amazing experience learning about the history of the Almafi Coast, the beautiful gardens and how they work together with the earth to produce food. The experience included a walk through the quaint and historic Pristiano village with beautiful lemon, olive and orange trees, herbs, and edible flowers. We gathered herbs for our meal and walked to a nearby restaurant for the cooking class with a breathtaking view of the sea. The cooking class was engaging and interesting with homemade appetizers, pesto pasta, and dessert all paired with wonderful beer and wine. Highly recommend - bring walking shoes - great tour for foodies and people who love to garden!

Do not miss this experience! - What a great day. It started at 11 o’clock. We took a walk/trek to learn about the history, herbs, vegetables, and plants of the Amalfi coast. We then ended up in a kitchen (with an unbelievable scenic view) where we were taught to cook a fantastic lunch including appetizers, an entrée and dessert. The lemon beer and wine was superb and everyone had a great time! Francesco is a knowledgeable tour guide, a very talented chef (and an all-around nice guy!) All of this was done with the beautiful scenic background of the Amalfi coast. This was truly one of the highlights of our trip to the Amalfi coast!

Best Excursion in the Amafi Coast - The best excursion we did in the amafi coast. Francesco, our guide, was very knowledgeable and passionate about the local herbs in Praiano. The 3 course meal comes with plenty of water and wine, which is important after a warm walk! 100% recommend.

Cooking and walking in Praiano with Francesco. - I can’t say enough about how wonderful our time with Francesco was. He was knowledgeable about the local history and a heck of an instructional chef. He was patient, agreeable, and all around a joy to be with! We learned and then ate like a King and Queen. A must when in the charming town of Praiano.
