Just got back from a three city visit to Italy. he cooking class in Florence was wonderful. We met in a famous square that just happened to be just a minute from our hotel near the Ponte Vecchio, crossed the bridge and walked about two blocks to a kitchen where we spent a wonderful evening conversing with travelers from all over and making some fine food. While I cook often and knew most of the techniques, I definitely learned a thing or two and enjoyed the camaraderie. The chefs who instructed us served our work product to us in the way of a four course meal with wine. Great evening! Highly recommend this.

Great fun! This tour was well-organized and efficiently run. There were about twenty five participants and three chefs, we could have done with another. They took us through preparing a three-course meal, making it so easy that I'm looking forward to trying it out for myself! I would do it again.

I had so much fun! You have to eat, so why not do a bit of cooking? It's not hard at all. Eat great food, drink great wine and meet some great people, all in one night.

Great! Enjoyable for novices and experts although not difficult or challenging for experts, we were very well "chaperoned". As novice chefs, we had a fantastic time. In groups of four we learned to make tiramisu, potato gnocchi, oven roasted whole tomato, and country chicken. We cooked, then ate, some wine included. The entire evening was extremely enjoyable.

It was the highlight of my trip. Of course, it helped that our group was awesome! Meeting and connecting with other travelers from around the world was a blast! The food was good and I learned something new! It wasn't HIGHLY hands on since we were in a group and we didn't get to eat what our group prepared but it was fun, nonetheless.

If you love to cook with friends, you will love this cooking course. The chef was entertaining. He was entertaining enough have his own TV cooking show.

Excellent evening with hands-on experience.... the chefs were all knowledgeable, talented, and very hospitable. They engaged the participants in lively conversation and made us feel welcome in their kitchen and country. Followed the class up with serving us our dinner, dessert, and chianti. Enchanting evening. Bravo!

This was very fun. It's not for someone who is really into cooking. It is more for the fun of it. The cooks help you a lot, and you get to take about five recipes home! We loved it, it was a perfect addition to our honeymoon.

This was one of the most enjoyable things we did in Italy. The size of the cooking class was 14 people, which made for a relaxing evening away from the thousands of people at the other sights in the city. The instructors were great, and we got to enjoy a delicious meal with wine.

The Tuscan Cooking lesson was fantastic. You'll spend the evening with 7 or 8 other travellers, and that's just fine, everyone had a great time. The cooking instructors were full of humour and patience and as well as learning some great recipes you can take your new skills home with you. I was surprisingly impressed and would definitely recommend the experience.
