  • 5Yummy pasta and tiramisu making!

    We had an absolutely marvelous cooking class. It was the last night of our family vacation and such a perfect end. My entire family came home eager to make pasta and replicate the recipes. Guilia was a patient and gracious teacher and made everything look easy. We highly recommend this experience and plan to take more cooking classes on future trips.

  • 5Wonderful experience in an amazing setting!

    What a lovely experience! Barbara and Stephen were warm and welcoming, and the gorgeous setting couldn’t be beat! My daughter and I enjoyed learning and trying our hand at making bruschetta, gnocchi, and a fabulous fruit and cream dessert, then got to sit down and sample the fruits of our labor. It was a relaxed and memorable evening of fun, and I highly recommend it!

About Cinque Terre

The Cinque Terre are five colourful fishing villages strung along the steep Ligurian coast, linked by trails, trains and boats above the sea.

The Cinque Terre are Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore, five villages on a rugged stretch of the Ligurian coast in north-west Italy. Pastel houses cling to cliffs above tiny harbours, and centuries of dry-stone terraces climb the slopes, planted with vines, olives and lemon trees. The coast is a national park and a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Top-ranked sights in Cinque Terre: Riomaggiore, Cinque Terre National Park (Parco Nazionale delle Cinque Terre), Vernazza.
