About this tour

Spend five hours in a Tuscan kitchen learning to cook regional dishes from scratch. You'll work alongside experienced cooks, prepare lunch and dinner with your own hands, and eat what you've made. It's hands-on and social—ideal for friends or couples wanting to pick up genuine cooking skills rather than just watch a demo. No prior experience needed; the pace suits everyone from confident home cooks to absolute beginners.

Highlights

  • Prepare and cook lunch and dinner from scratch
  • Learn authentic Tuscan recipes and techniques
  • Eat the dishes you've created together
  • Wine and local beverages included throughout
  • Casual, welcoming atmosphere for all skill levels
  • Wheelchair accessible kitchen and facilities

What to expect

You'll arrive at a working Tuscan kitchen ready to get involved. Expect to knead dough, chop vegetables, stir pots, and taste as you go. Your guides will show you traditional methods without hovering—there's room to make mistakes and learn. You'll prep ingredients together, cook lunch communally, eat it, then move on to dinner preparation. Wine flows throughout. It's unhurried and social; you're not on a strict schedule or being tested. By the end you'll have cooked several complete dishes and understand the reasoning behind each step.

Good to know

Wear clothes you don't mind getting flour or sauce on. The kitchen is wheelchair accessible and suitable for various fitness levels. Bring appetite and curiosity rather than expertise. Transportation to and from the venue is wheelchair accessible.
