Kids highlight of Florence (and adults too!) - We loved making Gelato! So much fun to hear about the history of how gelato was made, the guide was funny and engaging. Highly highly recommend

Gelato Making in Florence with Liv Tours - My husband and I had a fantastic time joining Liv Tour's Gelato Making Class and Vetulio Bondi, learning about and making gelato in his family-run Gelateria. He was informative, but more importantly, so much fun! If you want to expand beyond the beautiful churches and sites of Florence, I'd encourage you to take a few hours to make gelato and to get a true "taste" of Florence.

Amazing experience - Our Family Gelato Making Class with Vetulio Bondi was nothing short of incredible. From start to finish, it was an experience we'll cherish forever. Vetulio's expertise in crafting sorbet and gelato that's as smooth and creamy as it gets was evident throughout the class. His passion for the art of gelato-making was infectious, and he had a remarkable ability to guide us, even with our varying levels of experience. But what truly left a lasting impression was the taste. The gelato we made together was, without a doubt, the best gelato of our lives. The flavors were rich, the texture was velvety, and each bite was a burst of pure delight. This class was not just about making dessert; it was a bonding experience for our family. We laughed, learned, and created delicious memories together. Vetulio Bondi's gelato class is a must for anyone looking to indulge in a sweet adventure and savor the best gelato they've ever tasted. We can't wait to return for more!

This Gelato Making Class was AMAZING... and so is Tulio! - You cannot miss this experience!! Tulio is truly one of a kind, SO very knowledgeable, engaging (to my teens, as well as us parents), and the gelato was perfection! This was more than just gelato making... it was a history of gelato, the science of true gelato making, hands on experience of making two kinds (chocolate gelato and strawberry sorbet)... all the while getting to experience Tulio's humor! The class took place in the back kitchen of his gelato store, across the street from his restaurant. Really a super fun, not-to-be-missed experience.

Must do authentic Gelato making experience when in Florence! - We actually did the private Gelato making experience. It was just us with the master of Gelato, Tulio Bondi at his famous Gelato store, Gelati del Bondi in Florence! It was definitely a HUGE highlight of our time in Florence. Learning the art of Gelato making from a person so passionate about his craft (he’s been making Gelato for 41 years!!). We couldn’t have wished for a better experience. It was a hands on gelato making experience with lots of fun chats and photos! And we got to be the chief taste testers (as in we ate as much as we were able to) of the gelato we made! HUGE thank you to Tulio! We loved this so much! Such a special memory on our honeymoon!

Gelato from a master! - Sig, Bondi is a masterful gelato maker and showman. The class was educational, lots of fun and our time flew by. His recipe and insights into gelato will make for lots of gelato at home. And LivTours made the booking simple.

Fun for everyone! - This was so much fun, even for adults. The instructor is funny and engaging. And you learn how gelato is made from scratch, as many gelato shops now make theirs with a pre-mix.

Amazing Gelato Experience - We loved making gelato w the expert gelato maker !! A Must Do in Florence !! A++++! Can’t wait to go back 🇮🇹!

Gelato making - My 2 x 10yo children and myself enjoyed this experience. We made strawberry sorbet and stratticela gelato. The first 40mins was a talk on Italian history and then making the gelato. The experience was with 2 other people. We enjoyed however it was expensive for what it was.

Informative and interactive Gelato Class, but few disappointments - Review is for LivTours Small Group Gelato Class- Overall informative and interactive, host is enthusiastic and engaging. But this class was a lot of talking by the host and giving information about gelato history, gelato making, science and techniques etc, all relevant but tough to engage younger children. When the time came to make gelatos, host was very engaging with children, getting them to do the measurements and pouring, mixing etc. The room is very small and chairs only for 6 people, our group had total 7 people, my child had no chair available, was offered a small stool. A bigger room would have been ideal. Instructions said to meet at the street corner for a guide with LivTours flag, but that wasn’t the case, we waited and when no one showed up, we went to Gelato shop and found the host there. Host, though very cheerful and enthusiastic, did not take questions well, his answer to a question- ‘How is gelato different from ice-cream’ he answered by saying -‘Were you not here when I was explaining it earlier’ His conversations involved around how his gelato classes are fully booked and only time he doesn’t do tours is when he is traveling around the world teaching.
