5.00This was our last activity in Florence and it was definitely one of our favorites!! Our son loves pizza so it was such an awesome idea to make our own pizza! Andrea was our chef and he explained and demonstrated perfectly! Our pizzas turned out amazing and we ate it all! It was fun experience and would recommend it as a fun family activity in Florence.
