5 Star Experience! - What an absolutely amazing experience. It was just me and my girlfriend. The food was amazing, and they were very accommodating for two who aren't very skilled in an Italian kitchen. We stayed in Siena, and they took care of booking all of our travel to and from. Very easy and very highly recommended!

Amazing experience! - This cooking class was the most wonderful experience! Alexandra was a very fun and knowledgeable chef, and the beautiful backdrop of the winery for the class was unbelievable. My wife and I learned a bunch of new techniques and tips about Italian cooking, and we are so excited to try them out ourselves (although I’m sure it won’t be quite as good). We also loved how intimate the experience was - it was just us and one other couple, so we really got to be hands on for all the cooking. The food was delicious, and the Brunello wine from the vineyards we ate in front of was fantastic. 10/10 - would recommend this for everyone!

Amazing afternoon!! - This was an absolutely incredible experience. It started with a brief but informative tour of the wine cellar and castle, and then we got to cooking! My husband and I took the class with one other couple and the chef made it such a fun afternoon. We drank Prosecco while we made our food and then enjoyed a wine pairing once everything was cooled. The views were unmatched! I’d highly recommend this experience!

Fun and Delicious! - Amazing experience! Started with a brief tour then to the cooking area with a surreal view of rolling hills and grape vines. This mother and daughter team are exceptional! They Poured us glasses of the wine from the winery and off we went cooking. We made a meat dish, ravioli, pasta, and termasu from scratch and they made it fun and easy to follow. We Sat to eat all of our courses as they served us at a beautifully set table outside overlooking the Tuscan hills and valleys. One of the best experiences we had on our Italy trip! Highly recommend!

Fantastic family cooking class! - What a wonderful family cooking class!! We had a great time making pasta, drinking wine, eating delicious pasta with a gorgeous view of Tuscany! We have picky eaters, a food allergy and are vegetarians- they were super accommodating, which we really appreciated. We all had a great time (kids ages- 18,14 and 8 were all happy) One of our best days of our trip! Thank you!!!

Great fun, best side trip. - Great experience cooking overlooking a vineyard with the fabulous instructor Alessandra. We ended up being the only two in the early morning class. What a lucky treat. We took in the winery tour too. It was a great adventure.

The highlight of our Tuscany vacation! - Amazing! Our favorite experience during our one week stay in Tuscany. We booked the cooking class through Tours of Tuscany, a local tour company that provided above and beyond service throughout our stay. Run by a husband and wife team, the chef Alexandra is so engaging, friendly, warm, and an excellent teacher. She planned a menu that was interesting, yet appreciated by everyone with different tastes. She made the class interactive but without pressure, so we all enjoyed the experience regardless of cooking skill. Her kitchen was set in the gardens of a beautiful old old castle. The kitchen was designed to allow for two large picture windows to enjoy the view of the Tuscany landscape throughout your experience. Once your meal is ready, Alexandra serves you either inside or outside on a beautiful terrace, and provides wine pairings for each course. This experience is the one that we will be continuing to talk about with fond memories for many years.
