Life changing experience - “Christiana is wonderful. She was a charming, funny and caring host. She made us feel confortable from the moment we arrived. She was very welcoming. The dishes she introduced us to were delicious, simple and full of flavor. I don’t have words to express how enriching this experience was. I would relive this moment again and again. A huge thank you.”

Come for the Adventure and Leave a Pasta Chef! - This was just the adventure we were hoping it would be! Our class took place in Sona, a rural town outside of Verona we'd never been to before. Our "Cesarina," Gigliola, and her English-speaking assistant, Sonia, were thoroughly kind and welcoming, and also fully prepared to give us hands-on instruction in the kitchen. We signed up for this class quite serious about learning how to make fresh pasta, and Gigliola's instruction was straightforward and easy to follow. We made two kinds of pasta (tagliatelle and ravioli) with three different sauces/fillings, and after everything was cooked up, we had a fantastic alfresco lunch of everything we'd just made. The food was genuinely delicious, and we all bonded at the table like family. A really nice touch was that after lunch, kind Sonia offered to drive us to where we needed to be, making our return home super easy. We'll never again be too intimidated to make fresh pasta the old fashioned way, and best of all, this experience was as much about getting to know these generous and talented people as it was about food.

Great experience! - This was a great cooking class with Cristiana in her beautiful house. We made two types of pasta, with simple sauces to go with it, and the food was delicious! Cristiana is a warm and joyful presence, and I felt I had known her for many years. We enjoyed the food in her garden with her partner, friend, dog, chickens, and cat. I would definitely recommend! :)

Had a great time learning from Aurora - Aurora was very friendly and accommodating and she taught us to make 3 different types of delicious homemade pasta from flour to table. We had a great time and left full and happy. She doesn’t speak English so she had a friend who translated for us. A very enjoyable meal and a real learning experience. I recommend!

It is worth making this short trip that you can easily do by public transport - What a nice experience this was. We learned to make the dough with 2 different kind of flower. With some history of pasta making we dit it the traditional way, just with ours hand. We made Tagliatelle and Tortellini with a filling of 4 leftover ingredients. We ate the whole thing, mmmm... . I'll never going to buy pasta again that i can make myself. Thank you very much and i will look for new recipes on you website.

Was so much fun - The Prosecco and Pasta Making Class at a local's home in Verona was an absolute delight! I had so much fun making a variety of pasta from scratch, and the experience was both hands-on and enjoyable. My host, Aurora, was fantastic—so kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable. She made me feel relaxed and engaging. The Prosecco added an extra touch of fun, making it a truly memorable experience. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Verona! 🍝✨🥂

Maria Paula, alone trip - The best experience in my entire life, food was amazing, but the people in the house were the main stars, they were amazing hosts, and Cristina was the best teacher I’ve ever had.

AMAZING, MUST DO in Verona - This was one of our best experiences in Verona. Michela is like your Italian Aunt who invites you for dinner. She’s a trained chef with zero pretentiousness and she’ll start you with wine and cheese in her living room as you all get to know each other. Then it’s off to her kitchen where you physically make three types of pasta from scratch. We made Tagliatelle, Potato Gnocci and Spinach and cheese Ravioli (and she’ll customize the menu to your liking). Then, after the cooking is done, you’ll sit at her dining room table with her (the best part) and just have an amazing meal. (And she had some incredible pomodoro, pesto and brown butter/sage sauces). She finished it with a home made apple tort that was amazing. You’ll have a great experience, an even better meal and you WILL go home feeling confident that you can make your own pasta from scratch at home (with her written recipes in hand). Best money I’ve spent on a Viator purchase. Do it. You won’t be sorry. 🙌❤️
