This experience blew us out of the water! Must do in Siena! - This experience blew my family and I out of the water!
My entire family (7 of us) decided to go to Simone’s farmhouse for this cooking class during our stay in Siena, and could not be more pleased with our decision.
Simone was an absolutely incredible host and teacher, and by the end of the day, friend!
We made homemade ravioli with fresh herbs from Simone’s garden grown right on his farm, and homemade tiramisu. We also had the pleasure of drinking (copious amounts of) his homemade red wine.
He even let my mother take home a full mint plant for her own garden at home.
If you are going to Siena, you have to experience this!

It's worth it - Very fun experience, we were just the two of us and learned a lot about the basics of Pasta making (as complete beginners). Good wine and good company :)
I recommend doing it with a larger group!

Country kitchen. - A great time. The chef was friendly, welcoming and really knowledgeable. He knew how to explain all that we needed to do to prepare the three courses. And, of course the food was fantastic. Oh, and don't forget the wine. We'll go back next time we are in Italy.

Personal Cooking Experience in Tuscany !! - The cooking class with Simone was an amazing experience. It felt super personal like we were just hanging out in someone's kitchen learning their family recipes in an authentic farmhouse setting. We enjoyed bruschetta, made spinach ravioli and tiramisu for dessert and of course, wine was always nearby. Seriously good. Definitely a highlight of our time here!

Simone’s cooking Class - One of my favorite experiences in Italy. Simone is hospitable, funny, very passionate and a great teacher. We made pasta and dessert from scratch using his grandmother’s recipes. It was a beautiful setting and a really great experience.

10/10 recommend! - We had an absolutely wonderful experience at the cooking class hosted by Chef Simone at his charming Tuscan farmhouse. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and hospitality. The chef was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also such a charismatic and engaging host, making the entire experience both educational and fun. The food we prepared was absolutely delicious, and we learned so many great tips and techniques to take home. The farmhouse itself was picturesque and added to the overall enchanting atmosphere of the day. It was truly a highlight of our trip to Tuscany, and we couldn’t recommend it more highly! Thank you, Chef for such a memorable experience!
