Culinary tradition is a protagonist of Tuscan culture, and a major part of the experience visiting the region.
We will be hosted in an organic farm, in the heart of Chianti Classico area. A typical farmhouse where a Tuscan family lives since many generations. It’s a charming set up, surrounded by rows of vines, olive groves, flowers and vegetable gardens. Here we will have to roll our sleeves up and start cooking our meal. With the help of a
local Tuscan Lady you will learn traditional secrets of our cuisine as well as cooking techniques. Success is
guaranteed.
Starters like bruschettas and crostini, cold cuts, cheeses and their pairing with honeys and jams. Pasta, and its fascinating world. We will make our own fresh home-made pasta from scratches, the old-fashioned way with a wooden rolling pin! Since any great meal ends with a dessert, we will be making something traditional to be
enjoyed at the end of our lunch too.
A tasting of various wines

We booked this private class in part because we were travelling with our (very energetic) 18 month old daughter and wanted to be able to take turns chasing her around as needed. The guide and the family running the experience were very accommodating, and made sure we all had a great experience. After learning to make the bruschetta, pasta, and tiramisu, we got to sample the wines produced at their vineyard while enjoying one of the best meals we had during our trip! The location is amazing and it felt like we were spending the afternoon with a tuscan family on their farm. The wines were all very good, each paired with a course of the meal. I would highly recommend this experience!

Loved getting to meet the wine maker and his family! His mom taught us to cook Italian and we even got to do wine tasting and tour the family winery! The driver was absolutely fantastic and taught us so much about the area!

A private tour and cooking class of a Tuscan olive farm and vineyard. Mama Sylvia and Jessica were fabulous hosts and teachers!! The food (made by us!!) was wonderful. We loved the doggo too! Mama Sylvia makes the best limoncello we’ve ever tasted!! Totally worth the time! Such a personal interaction with Italy! Jessica was so friendly and informative!

Giada was a fantastic guide on this trip, warm, friendly, and exceptionally knowledgeable. This was the highlight ending of our Tuscan stay. The farm and the residents were super. We made pasta and tiramisu and it was easy and delicious. The wines were exceptional and the surroundings even better. A must do activity in the region

Our family (2 adults and 11 year old daughter) loved this tour. Phillipo, our guide/driver was excellent - friendly, good humoured and full of interesting information about the region, history, food and wine. Sylvia, our chef/instructor was wonderful. After preparing the food, we were able to tour the farm/vineyard before sitting down to a wonderful meal. We all thoroughly enjoyed the day, especially my daughter. It was one of the highlights our our trip to Italy. I would definitely recommend the tour.

We had such a good time, lots of laughter and fun with our host Paolo who was very knowledgeable on food and wine and made the day one to remember. Would recommend this tour to anyone who loves food and wine.

This is a must do experience. Our guide Martini was great, there wasn't a question we asked that she didn't know the answer to. Learned so much walking through the vineyard and Olive trees. The cooking class was so fun and now my husband and I can make homemade pasta. Our lunch with the items we made was delicious. It felt like for an entire morning we were transported back in time and really got a chance to experience the Italian culture.
