If you’ve ever wanted to cook authentic Italian cuisine, this is where to start. Our hands-on cooking classes in Italy take place at Chef Stefano’s historic home on Mt. Fumaiolo on the border of Tuscany and Emilia Romagna. You’ll cook side-by-side with him to create authentic regional dishes using fresh, seasonal ingredients and traditional techniques—just like Italians have done for generations.
These all-inclusive immersive cooking vacations are perfect for beginners, food lovers, or anyone who wants to build confidence in the kitchen.
You’ll learn real skills you can take home and recreate for friends and family while experiencing Italy’s rich culture, history, and way of life.
If you’d like a private tour of Italy with a guide who can show you the hidden gems most travelers never see, upgrade your stay into a Culinary Vacation. You’ll savor la dolce vita in destinations like Venice, Florence, Bologna, Rome, the Amalfi Coast, Portofino and more—all with the ease of having a private chef and local guides by your side.
