About this tour

Your host—part of Cesarine, Italy's network of home cooks—prepares starter, pasta, main, and dessert using recipes handed down by their relatives. Four hours of genuine Italian cooking and conversation, with regional wines and coffee included.

What to expect
You'll arrive at your host's home in Sant'Agnello and settle in as they begin preparing dishes in front of you. Rather than a performance, it's a genuine working kitchen—you'll see how they handle pasta dough, build flavours, time multiple dishes. Between courses, conversation flows naturally; many hosts enjoy explaining why they do things a certain way. The meal moves at a comfortable pace, wine glasses refilled as you eat. By the end, you've seen the full arc of an Italian meal and eaten it at the table where the family usually sits.
Good to know
Arrive on time; these are private homes, not restaurants. Public transport reaches the area easily. Dietary requirements should be flagged when booking. The experience is genuinely intimate—expect a small group or one-on-one depending on your booking. Dress as you would for a dinner invitation.
