5Such a fun experience,...
Such a fun experience, with delightful hosts and absolutely delicious food! We learned a lot and enjoyed every minute! Highly recommend!!
5An excellent, authentic Tuscan cooking experience
This was a super fun hands on activity! It was great to make an entire dinner from scratch and then sit down and eat it. Francesco was excellent. We are excited to go back home and make these dishes again. Definitely a 5 star excursion!
5Hands on interactive cookery course
We were a group of 9. Such a fun experience and can honestly say the best meal we have had in Italy.
5Amazing and Memorable Culinary Experience
Amazing experience!!! My wife and I loved the class where Chef Francesco taught us how to cook four separate courses in the Tuscany tradition. Francesco and Julia made the entire experience memorable. The four dishes included antipasta which was La Pappa Col Pomodoro; homemade pici pasta; Tagliata Steak with caramelized onions; and Cantuccini Biscotti. With each dish they explained the background, local ingredients and tradition, and then coached us to prepare ourselves. Their personalities and knowledge were the perfect combination to make the experience incredibly enjoyable and beyond worthwhile. Best of all, you get the experience and the recipes to take home to try for yourself. If you want the quintessential Siena/Tuscan experience, don’t miss Chef Francesco, Julia, and their classes. It will be the highlight of your visit!

About Siena
Siena is a medieval Tuscan hill city of red-brown brick, known for its shell-shaped main square, its striped cathedral and the twice-yearly Palio.
Siena was Florence's great rival in the Middle Ages, and its historic centre, a UNESCO site, still looks much as it did then. Il Campo, the shell-shaped square, slopes down to the Palazzo Pubblico and its slender tower, the Torre del Mangia. The cathedral, striped in white and dark green marble, has a pavement of inlaid scenes and a library of painted manuscripts.
Top-ranked sights in Siena: Piazza del Campo, Siena Cathedral (Duomo di Siena), Mangia Tower (Torre del Mangia).
