What To Expect
Our experience begins with a warm welcome from our team who will guide you throughout this awesome class, describing what we will do in the following few hours. We will start with a tour of our typical terraced gardens, an ancient local cultivation method that represent a resource of sustainability and environmental conservation on the Amalfi Coast. Here we will stroll by and linger at the lemon grove, the olive grove and the vineyard, where you will be provided with significant information on the importance of these groves in the Mediterranean diet and how our worldwide famous Limoncello, olive oil and wine are produced. We will continue our visit to the vegetable garden, and after wearing gloves and collecting wicker baskets, we will proceed with the picking of the freshest seasonal veggies and fragrant herbs that we will later use for the preparation of the delicacies during the class. Once we have put on our kitchen aprons we will be ready to get down to business and learn the secrets of preparing exquisite traditional dishes, which we will then go on to enjoy all together during a wonderful meal accompanied by local wine, limoncello and real Neapolitan espresso.

Best cooking class in Amalfi!

5.00I had such a great time at the Amalfi heaven gardens class. The chef, Ivan, really went above and beyond to make sure we left Italy satisfied. He also made sure we had something to look forward to when we got back home. The skills you learn are memorable and the meals taste just as good in your own kitchen as they do in the gardens, at least for me 🥰
The perfect experience

5.00We had the best time at Amalfi Heaven Gardens back in August. The staff were funny, informative and friendly. We especially loved seeing a traditional Italian kitchen and learning the best secrets! We had so much information on harvesting and you got to see into the gardens where everything grows. We had Alessia, Rosa and Gianluca who genuinely made our experience. A huge thank you guys.
A fun day

5.00So much fun and delicious foods were prepared and shared by all. Friendly hosts and the chef was such a sweet person with a great sense of humor. It was raining when we went which was awful but we still had a good time.
Monumental evening of the year

5.00Of our entire trip to Europe, this experience was the highlight of our journey. From the moment we arrived and toured the beautiful gardens, to taking in the breathtaking views of the coast below, every detail was unforgettable. The family-style preparation and hands-on cooking experience made it truly special—a memory we will cherish for a lifetime. The warmth of the staff, the exceptional quality of the ingredients, and the incredible meal we shared together have earned a permanent place among our most treasured milestones.
We had a blast making good food!

5.00We were in Italy celebrating my wife’s and my buddy’s 60th birthdays and we wanted to do a cooking class, that’s what you do in Italy, right? We found this excursion online and purchased it prior to arriving in Italy, which I highly recommend you do. Our driver dropped us off at the entrance on the busy road and we met our guide. We walked crossed the street and up a steep flight of stairs and entered through a narrow door and to our surprise we were in a beautiful garden overlooking the Amalfi Coast filled with lemon trees, herbs, grape vines, habanero bushes, tomatoes and much more, the aroma was amazing! The staff were wonderful, very nice people and a lot of fun. We made several dishes and they all were good. The food was the center point but the chefs/staff made our day. Thank you for such an unforgettable memory.😄
An extraordinary experience of gardening and cooking in a fun outdoor environment.

5.00Owner, guide and chefs were passionate about growing fruit and veggies. Gatano was entertaining from the garden tour to the cooking class. Participation was delightful and not demanding. Outdoor kitchen and dining overlooking the sea was unique and a highlight of our trip to Italy.
Our Favorite Italian Vacation Experience.

5.00Most likely our greatest experience in our 11 day trip to Italy. The guys were an absolute blast to be around. Getano, Alessandro, and Angelo were so hilarious and made the experience great. The food we cooked was delicious, the memories we made were lasting, and the views were unmatched. Would recommend this trip to anyone.

5.00Group of 8 adults, can't recommend this activity enough...such fun, exuberant and passionate people, giving us an extremely educational and most fulfilling 4-hours, surrounded by a gorgeous setting overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea! From the gentlemen who first met us, to those who transported us to and from the garden, throughout the entire time, they made us feel like family! Never have we enjoyed cooking so much! Thank you Lou, Chef Fabio, Chef Nicoli and all the staff who made our recent visit such a memorable experience and such a special time!!!
