Amazing time. Chef and co-chef were great, very knowledgeable and active siring out cooking. I appreciated the great tips shared to make sure we're not falling in the traps to scam us. We also made great couple from London so it was great times overall
Great time making pizza and gelato. Our instructor was funny and knowledgeable! The team was great and very helpful.
This was so much fun! Highly recommended for people travelling with friends or family who want to try something different in Florence.
Amazing experience ! Learned so much about making pizza! I paid very close attention to detail ! Will definitely try at home next time ! Roberta has been an amazing teacher.
Anna was an incredible chef and host! We had a wonderful time.
It was a great experience! Victoria and Frederico were great teachers with so much knowledge about pizza and gelato. There were so many small touches that really made the afternoon special. Just the right amount of time without feeling rushed. Definitely worth the money. Would highly recommend.
A great experience. Delicious food. Explained the process very clearly
Alice and Federico were amazing! They were friendly and funny. Their instruction was very clear and we made perfect pizza and gelato. Thank you very much!
Federico and Alice were absolutely extraordinary with their knowledge and instruction! The class was fun and relaxed, but full of great inspiration!! Wonderful!!
Absolutely brilliant experience, I would highly recommend it. Fredrico and Alice were amazing teachers. I went specifically to learn how to make traditional gelato and Alice did a fantastic job of showing us how to do it and answering my many questions! Fredrico was amazing, again answering all of my questions and giving me additional information so I can use ferment/starter should I choose too. You get to eat your pizza at the end and plenty of gelato! There was so much wine! Highlight of my trip to Florence with the added bonus of a Polaroid photo each to take away and access to an app with all the recipes (and more). Thank you so much! Lindsay
Had a wonderful experience. The staff was very helpful & entertaining making the experience something to remember. Looking forward to trying to make pizza at home.
A fun and enjoyable experience to do as a family, the 3 hours flew past! Our two chef hosts were engaging, informative and lovely! Although a large group (approx 20) we were split into smaller groups (4-6), this made it less intimidating and gave everyone time to warm up and relax. It was a great evening learning about pizza and gelato and we looking forward to putting into practice all we have learnt. A fun, relaxing and memorable evening, thank you!
Super experience making pizza and gelato with Roberta: super clear, fun, lots of tips!
I have to say this was the best experience of our trip. It felt really authentic and our teacher made it so interesting and enjoyable. Just a perfect thing to do with our 12 year old daughters.
A great evening and experience Victoria, Federico, and Tommaso made the evening educational and fun. After doing all of our prep work and putting sauces, mozzarella and toppings our pizzas were fantastic. The gelato was amazing. Many thanks to all. From our group of four
Ferdinand and Victoria were very good teachers and very patient
Fun family experience, and tasty gelato!
This cooking class exceeded all of our expectations. My husband and I were looking for a unique experience during our time in Florence, and this was absolutely perfect. The atmosphere was welcoming, the instruction was excellent, and we loved learning traditional Italian cooking techniques. It was hands-on, interactive, and so much fun. We left with great memories, new skills, and recipes we can't wait to recreate at home. Thank you for such a special experience!
Wonderful experience with Andre! Fun, informative, and answered all our questions. Highly recommend the class and even more so Andre!
The experience was great! Andrei was a great teacher. Had a nice time with the people at my table.
Andre was absolutely AMAZING!!!! We had the best time. He is wonderful at is job and we are leaving with lots of tips! 10 out of 10!!!!!
Amazing class! Andre our chef was absolutely fantastic, engaging and informative! A must book if you are looking for a pizza cooking class
Andre was fantastic! Very entertaining and filled all the time with useful information. It was very enjoyable experience. We had people of all ages in our group and everyone was entertained and enjoyed themselves. Highly recommend and great value for the money.
Just finished our pizza & gelato cooking class with Alice. She made this so fun and informative, we loved it! Plus our food was delicious, even if we do say so ourselves :)
Fantastic couples experience. Alice and Jon were amazing hosts and teachers. The food turned out great, very tasty . Highly recommend 5stars 🌟
Excellent Class. Started right on time and ended right on time. Our teacher was Roberta and she was great. Incredibly fun. I was skeptical when I saw the class was 3 hours long but I was engaged the entire time. She taught the pizza and gelato making very well, not only in showing technique but also with how much useful information she gave. Pizza and Gelato tasted great and made me want to try the recipes when I get home. Roberta gets an A+ as a teacher. Having a good instructor for this course is a must.
Excellent experience! Roberta was engaging and funny.
Our pizza and gelato class was an excellent experience. Victoria and Lisa were great teachers/hosts and everything was tasty. Learning how gelato is made and what to look for when on the streets searching for good gelato was a nice addition. This is a great evening for anyone solo, a couple, families or a group of friends. It's definitely money well spent.
Nice kitchen, professional chef, wonderful experience cooking in the heart of Florence. We also received a certificate and recipes for the pizza and gelato.
FredericoH and his assistant were phenomenal. Best thing we did. Fee was reasonable. Would do again.
Great experience, Frederick H is awesome and definitely recommend doing this!!
We had a blast learning how to make pizza & Gelato with Frederico H & Roberta. I highly recommend Towns of Italy cooking school. We will be back
Was great and so much fun! Thank you!!
✨️BEAUTIFUL✨️ it was drlicious we didnt have enough time to make the dough rise properly but it was still DELICIOUS 10/10 👨🍳
Alice and Roberta were absolutely amazing!! I went with my grandparents, brother, and parents and it was an incredible experience for all ages. We learned a lot and I would highly recommend for anyone visiting the area.
Exceptional experience! Highly recommend for anyone wanting to bring home a piece of Florentine culture home. It’s what traveling is mean to be… bring everyone closer! Sharing food is sharing understanding and love!
The class was so much more than we expected! The chefs were knowledgeable, friendly and made the class very entertaining and a good learning experience even for myself as an advanced cook. Highly recommend taking courses from these chefs
Four of us did the Pizza and Gelato class with Andra and Roberta. They deserve more than five stars! The highlight of our trip to Florence. The pizza and gelato we made was delicious. It was entertaining, educational and a great way to spend an evening. We highly recommend the Towns of Italy cooking school!

He made the experience enjoyable for our entire family, and we loved learning how to make authentic Italian pizza from scratch.
