5.00This was a really wonderful class! I thought the teacher was really good and made things fun and easy to learn. Really appreciated her knowledge and the attention she showed us. She also created a fun and jovial atmosphere that helped everyone get in the mood and there was lots of camaraderie during the cooking, eating and wine tasing. 10/10 with no notes. Would definitely do again!

5.00We made pasta with Simona today, and what a fantastic teacher and chef she is. She accommodated 8 of us with a breeze, the youngest being about 7 and the oldest was me at 65. She showed us how delicate yet robust pasta can be. We made fettuccine which was served with a tomato sauce and ravioli filled with ricotta, parmesan and truffel. This was served with a butter and sage sauce.

5.00This Pasta Making Class is Amazing! My 2 adult daughters and I thoroughly enjoyed learning how to make real pasta from a professional chef in a professional kitchen in Italy! A memorable experience! The instructor was so knowledgeable and experienced and he made the class so much fun for everyone! After making the pasta, it was cooked and then we all sat down at a long table and enjoyed what we actually made with a glass of wine! So nice!!! It was lovely to share this experience with people from the Netherlands, Mexico, Brazil and Asia! Another amazing tour/ class with Viator!

5.00This is a great experience of learning about pasta, make pasta and eat what you made along with others. Enjoyed the entire experience. Our pasta teacher was amazing in her instruction and interaction. Wine was excellent at the table and juice for kids. Couple wine tasting at the end was also nice. It’s a great location near the famous bridges. Worth the money spent. I would highly recommend this experience.
