I did not even get to attend. The booking voucher had the wrong address and when we called they would not give the correct address and viator would not refund. I will never use viator again. Very poor customer service.
Charming Chianti farm with a stunning view and the most welcoming chef! You can certainly tell that Simone loves what he does, is an amazing chef, and a fabulous teacher! We all came away with a smile and a full belly!
Simon was a wonderful host! We had such a fun time and he was very knowledgeable! We loved the food!! Would definitely recommend!!!
This cooking class was one of the most amazing experiences and definitely one of the highlights of our Italian adventure! Chef Simone and his crew created such a fun, educational, and warm environment at their quaint Tuscan farm. With an intimate group of fewer than 15 people, we had the perfect amount of time and personal attention from Chef Simone to confidently make homemade ravioli and tiramisu. We learned so much and truly felt welcomed into the experience while sharing free-flowing wine and laughs. It was a wonderful way to experience Tuscany beyond just seeing the sights—and the food we made was absolutely delicious! An especially great experience for couples, and one we would highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic, hands-on Tuscan experience.
Very pretty, functional and clean. Didn't realize that there was a delightful outdoor area. Very close to the 7 escalators that take you yo the town center.
We had a wonderful time making pasta and tiramisu. Simone was knowledgeable and entertaining. It was also a lot of fun getting to know other travelers.
Such a wonderful experience! Hands on class making spinach and ricotta ravioli and tiramisu and then they made us bruschetta for an appetizer. This was the best meal of our Italy trip! The class was so enjoyable and Giovanni was wonderful! We would definitely recommend!!
Set in an old farmhouse, the hospitality is unmatched and Simone is the star of the show. Its a can't miss if you are in the Siena area
The cooking class was intimate, fun, and interactive. Our hosts catered for all our needs. All in a delightful rural setting.
Rustic barn setting, alot of fun, Simone hospitality made us so comfortable. Pretty sure his culinary experience goes far beyond Ravioli and Tiramisu. We loved everything about this experience, highly recommend.
We really enjoyed the cooking class. It is located in a beautiful village in the Tuscan countryside. We happened to be grouped with other travellers with whom we spoke extensively, and even exchanged contact info after the class. Simone was a great instructor, giving us time to rest and chat throughout the class. The food we made (ravioli and tiramisu) was tasty. The quantity of food provided was great - we all left very full. Simone also patiently and proactively accommodated my 1 year old daughter who attended the class with us. We recommend this experience to other travellers!
Amazing! Small group and we really learned how to make traditional pasta. Set in the beautiful countryside in the chefs backyard. Highly recommend. Thank you for the great time and wonderful food!
Chef Simone was a wonderful host and teacher, he put us all at ease with his kindness and good humour. We made delicious ravioli and tiramisu from scratch and feel confident thanks to his tips and guidance that we could make it again when we return home. This was a real highlight of our trip and we would highly recommend. The farm is in a gorgeous location, so eating our handiwork later was also a treat.
It was nice. It was a small farm. We were showed how to make tiramisu and pasta… Actually, we did spinach fill ravioli. The instructor was knowledgeable and interesting. He made it enjoyable. It was a perfect length of time.
We had the best time at our cooking class with Simone and his wife. They were both so kind and welcoming, and they made the whole experience feel really relaxed and fun. They walked us through making pasta and tiramisu in a way that was easy to follow and had wine flowing the whole time. Their home was so charming, tucked away in the mountains, and we got to eat outside in their courtyard with jasmine climbing up the walls. It was very kid-friendly, which we really appreciated. They had high chairs and toys ready for our little one when he started getting antsy, so we could actually enjoy the experience without feeling stressed. This ended up being one of our favorite memories from our trip. I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, authentic, and family-friendly cooking class in Italy.

we booked this super last minute but so glad that we did! it has been our favourite experience of our entire europe trip. our host was so warm, friendly, and supportive with a fantastic personality! we really enjoyed learning about his background as a chef, especially his time in perth, australia. he quickly built rapport with all of the guests and continued to support them throughout the pasta making class. would highly recommend this experience to anyone wanting an intimate but non-overwhelming cooking experience. our only wish was that he joined us for the meal so we could speak to him some more and learn more about his experience as a chef! :)
An unforgettable experience! The cooking class felt truly authentic, from the traditional recipes to the hands-on guidance. Set in a stunning, picturesque location, the whole atmosphere made it even more special. Not just a class, but a genuine taste of Italian culture—highly recommended!
Simone was fantastic. Fun to cook with. Knowledgeable and very personable. Everything was so great. Highly recommend
This was such an authentic experience with Simone, who was so excited and patient, teaching the finer details on cooking, ingredients, and of course the vineyard his family lives on. We made delicious raviolis and tiramisu from scratch, using high-quality local ingredients, with Simone having everything setup for our group for each stage, generous with wine, and ultimately a beautiful family style meal. If you’re looking for true authentic cooking with an experienced chef, and learning about Siena & Tuscany in general, I’d highly suggest this experience!! Check in with Simone about the location before you head down, and he’ll send you exact location directly in a message!
From the minute I stepped out of the car to the moment I tasted the delectable foods we learned to make, I thought I was in a fairy tale. The setting for this intimate cooking class was simply enchanting. The old Tuscan farmhouse is set in the rolling hills amongst vineyards. As the sun set, we clinked sparkling Prosecco and began our lesson expertly led by Simone our chef. His class was educational, relaxed and fun. The fresh pasta topped with homemade mushroom sauce was magical. What could top that? Pizza made in an authentic wood burning fireplace. As I reluctantly climbed back in the car, I may have shut the door to that magical place, but the memories will forever stay with me. Thank you Simone. I highly recommend this fantastic place to anyone who wants to transport themselves to a magical place.
Simone was excellent! He was such a fun instructor and the food that we made was delicious! Our ravioli were superb and the tiramisu was to die for! And the wine was absolutely delicious! We also had a great time in his kitchen and the grounds were so beautiful. It was a spectacular day and we can't thank you enough!
