The perfect evening - Silvias attention to detail was amazing! From welcoming us to remembering our son in laws birthday and having champagne & birthday candle in his tiramisu! Silvia’s home is warm and inviting which matches her beautiful spirit. Should you have Silvia as your cooking host consider yourself lucky! Don’t hesitate to book this cooking class ~ did I mention the food!!! It’s delicious as well of course Cincinnati Ohio

An incredible experience with Monica in Lucca. - We spent the day with Monica and Paolo in their home learning to make pasta. They were amazing, gracious hosts. Monica taught us every step of the pasta making process. She is a gifted teacher. Their hospitality went above and beyond! I highly recommend booking this experience with Monica.

Cannot recommend more highly - Our chef, Silvia, made this experience truly unforgettable. She was kind, knowledgeable, and made us one of the best pesto sauces I have had in my entire life. We were celebrating my mother's 70th birthday and Silvia made the experience once-in-a-lifetime. Highly recommend this!

Girls trip and cooking lesson - Monica and her family opened their home for this one of a kind experience. They were very friendly and informative. We loved interacting with their dogs and cats. The experience can take longer than listed; if you have time constraints be sure to let Monica know ahead of time as well as any food allergies. Come hungry- tons of food!

Very bad non-experience. - Lucca is a very very crowded city with not only cars, but thousands of people. We were not able to find the location due to blocked streets because of construction and no parking without a permit . We were there early but could find zero parking. We parked a very long way off and gave up because it was already one hour late. We texted when we got there and told them our predicament and 1.15 minutes later, they said the kitchen was closed. We asked to reschedule because we were in the area for three more days but got no response so we asked for our money back. We got no response I am calling my credit card company to have them cancel the charge of $343.

Ripped off!! - We had booked a cooking class in Lucca Italy for Oct 18th at 5pm. On the ticket it listed a remote location to be picked up due to the fact the class was at a private home. We arrived at the assign location at 4:45 and waited until 5:30. I tried to contact Viator because there was no phone number for the class operator. The Viator agent told me I had the wrong day! I explained the i was looking at my ticket and it was booked for today. The agent was very rude and had no solutions. We had paid in advance $645US. After several conversations with Viator they are unwilling to refund any of our money!! This is completely unacceptable! Our ticket showed a location to meet at and we were there. There was no contact information about the cooking class operator to call for help and the Viator agent was rude with no help. This was an expensive class and I don't feel we did anything wrong. To not be refunded is just wrong!! I will never use Viator again!!
