About this tour
Cook and eat in a Valpolicella home kitchen with a local Cesarine host, working through a four-course meal built from family recipes and regional wines. The 2.5-hour session pairs hands-on cooking with sit-down eating, giving you a genuine sense of how Italian home cooking actually works—no theatre, just honest food and the people who make it. Water, local reds and whites, and coffee included.

What to expect
You'll arrive at your host's home and move straight into the kitchen. Expect to peel, chop, stir and taste as your Cesarine cook walks you through their repertoire—these are cooks who've fed their own families for decades, not chefs performing for tourists. You'll prep elements of each course, then sit down to eat what you've made, course by course, with wines poured between. Conversation happens naturally; there's no script. By the end you'll have picked up technique through doing, not lecturing.
Good to know
Dress for a kitchen (apron provided). Tell your host about dietary needs when booking. Public transport serves the area, though a taxi is simpler. Two-and-a-half hours includes cooking and eating; you won't rush.
