Highlights

Amalfi Heaven Gardens - Cooking Class in the Amalfi Coast - Our experience begins with a warm welcome from our team who will guide you throughout this awesome class, describing what we will do in the following few hours.
We will start with a tour of our typical terraced gardens, an ancient local cultivation method that represent a resource of sustainability and environmental conservation on the Amalfi Coast.
Here we will stroll by and linger at the lemon grove, the olive grove and the vineyard, where you will be provided with significant information on the importance of these groves in the Mediterranean diet and how our worldwide famous Limoncello, olive oil and wine are produced.
We will continue our visit to the vegetable garden, and after wearing gloves and collecting wicker baskets, we will proceed with the picking of the freshest seasonal veggies and fragrant herbs that we will later use for the preparation of the delicacies during the class.
Once we have put on our kitchen aprons we will be ready to get down to business and learn the secrets of preparing exquisite traditional dishes, which we will then go on to enjoy all together during a wonderful meal accompanied by local wine, limoncello and real Neapolitan espresso.

Cooking with Magic - What a great day! I’m not a cook, but my daughter is, and we both loved the experience. Francesco informed and entertained us. Mama Rosa is an excellent chef, and teacher, and a dear person. The chemistry in the pan, between the staff and with the guests was magical. The setting is stunning. The ingredients we all picked together fresh from the garden. Wow. So worthwhile. Trip and life highlight.

Best local staff with amazing foods! - From the start of the cooking class, good friend Francesco was helping with parking. Then when we went to the garden, and he explained all the vegetables and let us feel and taste them right from the ground. For the cooking class, our chef Rosa was excellent and very entertaining but serious about the cooking. Foods were amazing and learned a lot about the how to cook and various ingredients. I would highly recommend everyone who was to get in touch with real local amalfi friends and taste the real Italian foods!

Awesome experience and food - Very fun, beautiful views, and everyone was super nice. Also the food was amazing, tasty and very fresh from the garden. We learned a lot about specifics about making gnocchi. The dinner reminded me of Italian dinners growing up where everyone sits at the table and talks.
I would highly recommend for anyone visiting the areas.
Grazie,
Daniel and Stephanie!

Highly recommend the cooking classes at Amalfi Heaven Garden - This was a highlight of our trip to Italy. The Amalfi Heaven Gardens team was so welcoming, and the experience and the food were spectacular. The outdoor kitchen overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and instruction were just what we were hoping for, and the team did a great job engaging the participating children. It was a wonderful experience!

Beautiful all around - This tour was SO amazing. The MOST beautiful garden with the sweetest chefs and they each gave us a task to do making it fun. We really cooked a delicious meal and I made memories with people from all over the world. We had a nice intimate lunch with people from 6 different countries and of course drank lots of wine. It was one of the best experiences on my honey moon.

Best cooking class in Amalfi Coast! - The best cooking experience on the Amalfi coast! Beautiful gardens where you pick vegetables that you will prepare in the outdoor, covered kitchen, then eat in the beautiful outdoor dining space, all, overlooking the ocean. It was like cooking with family and friends. Great time!
