5Amazing location and great experience!
Absolutely beautiful grounds and home. The class was fun and the food we made was outstanding!! Had a great time and would highly recommend!!! Olive oil was delicious and took some to go back to the US! A lot of care is given with everything they do!!
5Authentic and Amazing!
What a wonderful experience! The setting alone was unforgettable—a beautiful Italian olive farm surrounded by the countryside. We spent the afternoon making fresh pasta, tasting the farm’s own olive oil, and learning about the traditions behind both. The highlight was sitting down afterward to enjoy what we had made beneath a beautiful vine-covered arbor. It was relaxed, intimate, and felt wonderfully authentic—less like a cooking class and more like being welcomed into Alina's home for a beautiful evening. A truly memorable experience and one of the highlights of our time in Italy. Highly recommended!
5Cooking class and more
Excellent experience on a lovely olive farm setting. Ilina made pasta and sauce making easy and memorable. Nonna's homemade lemoncello was an unexpected bonus.
5A Must Do Italian Experience
My wife and I stayed a month in Italy and each week had 10 different guests at the villa. Every week each group attended Alina’s Slow Cooking school. Across the board all four groups expressed that it was one of the top experiences in Italy. It was a very hands on experience making plentiful and amazing dishes from scratch using organic ingredients. We shared the food along with wine in a beautiful classic Italian countryside setting under a vine covered pergola. Alina made it fun, educational and festive. In addition we had the opportunity to experience their olive oil production. A highly recommended experience.
5An absolute 10 out of 10. Don’t overthink it — just book it.
Absolutely — here’s a warm, lively version that keeps your enthusiasm and that little wink: **10/10 – just do it!** What an absolutely wonderful experience. We joined Alina’s cooking class with the whole family, including our teenagers, and every single one of us loved it. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. Alina welcomes you so naturally into her beautiful Italian home — honestly, it feels like a little piece of paradise. The setting is gorgeous, the atmosphere warm and relaxed, and Alina herself is incredibly kind, generous and full of energy. You learn a lot, you cook delicious food, you laugh, you eat… and then you get to sit down together afterwards and enjoy everything you’ve made around the table. That part was just as special as the cooking itself. And yes, it may technically be *slow cooking* — but it is taught in a wonderfully speedy, very Italian way. 😉 Full of passion, stories, tips and enthusiasm from start to finish. It really doesn’t get much more authentic than this. Delicious food, a beautiful setting, a heartfelt welcome and such a generous experience.
5Incredible cooking class
What an incredible experience! Alina and Lucia were wonderful hosts. We were a family of 5 with 2 children (aged 14 & 11). The workshop was great for all! We made pastas including gnocchi, a tomato risotto and a summer tiramisu. All were super delicious! It was fascinating to see where the olive oil is produced too. Highly recommend! We would visit again!
