Set in her charming farmhouse nestled in the hills of Cortona, each class begins with a welcome aperitif and a short stroll around the property to take in the breathtaking views. In your 1.5 hour hands-on cooking class in Cortona, join Giada in her cozy home kitchen to cook two traditional dishes from scratch. Whether it's fresh handmade pasta or fragrant pizza and focaccia and beloved Tuscan desserts like tiramisu or crunchy cantucci, Giada guides you through each step with clarity, and expert tips.

Our cooking experience with Giada in her home in Cortona was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Italy. From the moment we arrived, she welcomed us like family with genuine warmth and hospitality. She graciously invited us into her beautiful home and farm, sharing stories about her family, their traditions, and the rich history of life in Cortona. Cooking alongside Giada using her treasured family recipes made the experience incredibly special. She explained each step with patience and enthusiasm, making us feel comfortable and involved throughout the entire class. It was much more than a cooking lesson—it was an authentic glimpse into Italian family life, culture, and tradition. If you’re looking for a meaningful and memorable experience in Cortona, I cannot recommend Giada enough. Her kindness, generosity, and passion for sharing her family’s heritage created an unforgettable day that we will always cherish.

A lovely afternoon and lunch making pasta and two simple sauces. Enjoyed the thoughtful instruction and also provided great local shop provisioner tips to create some of our dishes for friends and eat fabulously, in an unfamiliar kitchen.

We did the pasta cooking class with our family (girls ages 19, 13, and 6) and everyone loved it. So much fun and we’d love to do it again if we ever go back. It was the highlight of our trip. And she was so helpful on the area in general.
