Best cooking class in Venice! - This was our favorite activity during our 2 week trip in Italy! We had a private cooking class with two of the nicest hosts. It was truly a unique and amazing experience during our time in Venice. We are excited to try out making pasta and tiramisu when we return home this week. Thank you all so much for a once in a life time experience!

This cooking class was... - This cooking class was amazing! Patrizia welcomed us into her home, which was beautiful. She was as accommodating as she could be with our daughter having celiac. The tour company did not tell her until the last minute which was through no fault of her own. Everything was awesome. She had wine for us, appetizers. I think the tiramisu was my favorite. It was private, just the four of us and I think that made it even more special. Thank you again! :)

Authentic pasta making experience! - I had the best time making pasta with Tessa and her mom. The experience was authentic. I felt so welcomed by Tessa’s hospitality and warmth. My friend and I learned how to make pasta without the pretentiousness, in a way that we would remember and recreate it in the future. The Tiramisu was amazing as well. I’ve made it in the states but this recipe tasted like the ones you eat from Italian restaurants. Thank you Tessa and mom! I would highly recommend to anyone for their Venezia travels!

Pretty disappointing - Underwhelming. I paid $845 for a family of four and for that much money you would expect a top of the line experience. The class description mentions appetizers and drinks/wine. The appetizers were a very small bowl of olives and sun dried tomatoes for 12 of us. The owner brought out two bottles of very cheap Prosecco again for 12 of us to share. He seemed overwhelmed by managing 12 of us and could have used a helper. For what this cost, it seemed very cheap and underwhelming. All 12 of us in the class were fairly disappointed given the cost and were all fairly surprised given the good reviews. Note the viator site is a central place to book for various operators so just beware that experiences can probably differ wildly.
