★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 46 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $174Our pick

Cook fresh pasta, regional dishes, and dessert in a local Varenna home, then share a wine-paired meal with your private host.

“This cooking class was a phenominal experience . The local couple was so sweet, and made their home our home. They were incredibly welcoming and kind. We were late and they were so patient with us, and excited that we were able to make it. They were a joy to learn to cook with. Best part of the trip was gettting to know them and learning from them! I will add that if the email says “meeting point” it is wrong. Just take a taxi to the address that is provided after booking. Great experience and amazing food!!!”

Cook pasta and dessert in a Bergamo home, share wine and a meal, and learn family recipes during this private three-hour class.

“Very friendly and knowledgeable Cesarina, in a charming home with a large kitchen island. Laura and her family were welcoming and shared their experiences in Bergamo and surrounding villages. Laura had good knowledge of the ingredients and included background information about each step in the cooking process. Handing down to us recipes from her grandmother, Laura made the cooking more personal than just a recipe. We highly recommend Laura and the local cooking class.”

It was very nice to come home to the host's home and take part in traditional pasta making. It was a very nice evening before the food that was prepared was served to us. We were in a party of 10, but were very professionally looked after. Recommended 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻”
