“A fantastic family experience! Ages 13 to 80 and everyone enjoyed! The chef is the show! Michelin star rated, humorous personality and so inclusive of all participants! Stories of his life and family while teaching us how to make homemade pasta, pizza and limoncello tiramisu from his cliffside historical villa overlooking the Sorrento coast! Breathtaking views! We then enjoyed the food we created along with chef's homemade wine and limoncello to top off the evening! Great fun, stories, food and family! It was truly a wonderful night!”
Sorrento pasta and tiramisu class: Prosecco on arrival, hands-on fresh pasta lessons, sea-view lunch with wine, small group.
“There are many other cooking classes to choose from. Do not choose this one! It was in a dirty restaurant portion of a kid’s entertainment complex, half hour drive from the pickup place. The place was dirty, the aprons stank and were unclean. The cooking lesson was perfunctory and basically involved spooning premade tiramisu into a glass, and preparing pasta in a 10 minute procedure, using unclean pasta machines. As a result the pasta, both ravioli and noodles, were mushy and barely edible. The red sauce tasted bottled or canned. The tiramisu was watery, with no structure or substance. We were not asked to wash our hands before preparing food,…”
Learn gnocchi, eggplant parmigiana, and tiramisu in the hills above Sorrento, with free pickup and plenty of wine and limoncello.
“If you’re visiting Sorrento and love Italian food, this cooking class is an absolute must! It was, hands down, one of the highlights of my trip. The setting was stunning — nestled in the hills of Sorrento with views of the coastline and lemon trees all around, it felt like a dream. The focus of the class was homemade gnocchi, and I couldn’t believe how simple yet satisfying it was to make from scratch. Under the guidance of our wonderful local chef, we learned the traditional techniques and how to shape each piece with care. The sauce — a fresh tomato and basil blend — was divine and brought everything…”

Cook in a typical Sorrento garden: pick seasonal veggies, make gnocchi and tiramisu, and eat together with a welcome cocktail. English-led.
“This class was the highlight of our trip to Italy. It truly was an authentic Italian culinary experience. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like family and immediately immersed in the beauty of the garden. We received a welcome lemon cello spritz & bruschetta as we discussed what we were making. We prepared a full meal together including handmade gnocchi, eggplant parmesan, and tiramisu. We were able to enjoy the family’s delicious homemade wine and relax in the beautiful countryside atmosphere as we enjoyed our meal together. Highly recommended!”

“This Sorrento cooking class is an absolute must-do! It strikes the perfect balance between hands-on cooking and relaxing with wine and food. You spend just enough time in the kitchen to feel involved without it being overwhelming.

“This was my favorite activity in Italy! The host was so sweet and welcoming, showing us her home and incredible garden, where she grows all the ingredients we used to cook food.
