★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 6,801 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $145Our pick

Make pizza or pasta, gelato, and memories at a Tuscan farm near Florence with a chef, wine, scenic views, and round-trip transport.

“We had such a fantastic time at this cooking class! The chefs were knowledgeable, engaging, friendly, and made the whole experience very fun! The setting at a farm up above Florence was absolutely beautiful, we learned practical techniques and were given recipes we can use at home. We brought our teenage kids, and thought it was going to be long at six hours, but the time flew by! The food was delicious and the bottomless wine was wonderful. This was one of our favorite experiences on our trip to Italy, highly recommend!”
