About this tour
Cook alongside a Castellabate local in their home kitchen, watching them prepare a four-course meal from family recipes spanning generations. This intimate 2.5-hour dinner includes antipasti, handmade pasta, a main with vegetables, and dessert, all paired with regional wines and coffee. You'll eat what you've watched being made, seated at their table—genuine Italian cooking without the restaurant theatre.

What to expect
You'll arrive at a local cook's home and move straight into the kitchen. They'll walk you through their technique as they work—rolling pasta, building sauces, plating sides. It's unhurried; you're there to watch and chat, not assist unless you want to. Once each course is ready, you sit down together to eat it. Conversation flows naturally between courses. The whole thing takes about two and a half hours from arrival to coffee.
Good to know
Public transport access is straightforward to the location. Bring an appetite and comfortable shoes. Let the host know about any dietary restrictions when you book. This is a proper home meal, not a restaurant—arrive on time and expect genuine, unpretentious Italian hospitality.
