What Travelers Say

Rated 4.9/5 by 70 verified GetYourGuide travelers.

Completely different to a restaurant class — we cooked in someone's actual home and ate at their kitchen table. Felt personal and genuine. The pasta was delicious and the digestif at the end was a lovely surprise.

Best cooking experience I've had anywhere. Only six of us, in a real Neapolitan kitchen, learning recipes that have been in the family for generations. I made the same pasta at home that week.

If you want the authentic experience, this is the one. Not a cooking school — a real home, a real family kitchen, and a host who genuinely enjoys sharing their food culture. The wine and digestif at dinner were perfect.

Is this at a restaurant or a home?
