EXCEPTIONAL!!! - My husband and I were on our honeymoon and did this pasta and tiramisu making class with Luca and Erika and it was nothing short of AMAZING!! I cannot say enough good things about this class. It was definitely a highlight of our honeymoon and something we will never forget. If you are lucky enough to get Luca as one of your chefs, be prepared to be laughing the entire time. He was FABULOUS. Erika (our other chef) is also fantastic and so so sweet. The two of them worked very well together and we absolutely loved them both. They made shopping for the ingredients and cooking so much fun. There was so much delicious food and wine, we were so full by the end of it! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this cooking class!! Luca and Erika, thank you for an amazing day. We love you!!! - Michele & Josh

Highlight of our trip! - Highlight of Our Italy Trip! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This was the absolute highlight of our 12-day trip to Italy! From the moment Luca welcomed us at the market, we felt like we were exploring with a new friend. His energy and connections made it such a fun experience. The villa was breathtaking, and Chef Erika’s warm smile and expertise made us feel instantly at home. They guided us through each recipe with patience and insider tips you can’t get from a cookbook. We left with full hearts, new skills, and unforgettable memories. We can’t wait to recreate the meal for our family and share a little piece of Tuscany with them. Highly recommend—this experience is not to be missed!

One of the highlights of - I actually booked this tour because it was so hot in Florence, my husband and I wanted to beat the heat. I never expected to have such a wonderful time. Luca and Erica were fantastic teachers, and very entertaining. I loved touring the Central Market, spending some time in the beautiful villa,learning new techniques in cooking, and eating a fabulous lunch. I recommend this tour wholeheartedly. If you go, tell Luca and Erica I said hello!!

Unforgettable Cooking Class Experience Outside Florence! - This was hands down one of the funnest and most memorable tours we’ve ever done! The day started at the vibrant Florence market, where we met our guide, Luca — truly one of a kind! Luca was an absolute character — funny, energetic, and endlessly entertaining. He brought such a colorful personality to the experience, making the day so much more than just a cooking class. After selecting fresh, local ingredients at the market, we headed out to a beautiful farm location just outside the city. The views were absolutely breathtaking — the kind of scenery you only dream about in Tuscany. The cooking class itself was incredibly fun and interactive. The staff at the farm were friendly, efficient, and very helpful throughout the entire experience. The facility was spotless and well-equipped, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We made delicious dishes together — and everything turned out amazing (with lots of laughter along the way!). I did this tour with my 22-year-old daughter and 20-year-old son, and all of us had a fantastic time. It’s rare to find something that engages everyone, but this cooking class nailed it. If you’re looking for a mix of culture, cuisine, and unforgettable moments with a top-tier host, this experience is a must. Luca made the day extra special — we’ll be talking about it for years to come!

Amazing cooking experience in a breathtaking environment - From start to finish, every detail of this experience was extraordinary. The tour of the mercato was informative. The bus used for transport was clean and comfortable. The farmhouse was absolutely breathtaking. It had Views of the Tuscan countryside and panoramic Firenze. The service at the cooking facility was seamless. Our chefs, Luca and Erica, were the icing on the cake. They presented in a fun and engaging way. This will be one of our family’s cherished memories for sure!

Best Time Ever - It was so much fun. Lucca is very entertaining to say the least. We learned so much from him and Erica. They have quite the set up for the class. We were a large group but still had enough “hands on” experience. Going to the market to get her our items for the class was awesome!
