Your villa is more than a place to stay—it’s the perfect setting for unforgettable experiences.
If you’ve already booked accommodations in Tuscany, Umbria, Emilia-Romagna, or the surrounding regions, Italy Culinary Vacations can bring the authentic flavors, traditions, and hospitality of Italy directly to your doorstep.
Whether you’re planning a family vacation, celebrating a special occasion, hosting friends, or traveling with a private group, we’ll curate personalized culinary and cultural experiences that allow you to relax while we take care of every detail.

Perfect for:
Some of the best memories in Italy are made around the kitchen table.
Our private cooking classes bring everyone together to learn traditional Italian recipes using fresh local ingredients. Under Chef Stefano’s guidance, you’ll discover time-honored techniques for making fresh pasta, regional specialties, seasonal dishes, and family recipes that you can recreate long after your vacation ends.
Classes can be tailored for couples, families, groups of friends, or special celebrations, with no previous cooking experience required.
Arrive at a villa that's ready to enjoy.
Skip the stress of finding grocery stores after a long day of travel. Before your arrival, we’ll stock your kitchen with fresh regional ingredients, pantry essentials, local wines, breakfast items, snacks, and any special requests you may have.
Whether you prefer your kitchen fully stocked for the week or simply want everything ready for your first evening, we’ll customize your order to suit your needs.
No culinary journey through Italy is complete without exceptional wine.
We can arrange curated wine tastings, food and wine pairings, and visits to local wineries where you’ll meet passionate producers and discover the unique wines of Tuscany, Emilia-Romagna, and Umbria.
Whether you’re a casual wine enthusiast or an experienced collector, we’ll create an experience that matches your interests.
