About this tour
Learn to stretch, shape and bake an authentic Neapolitan Margherita in a two-hour private class led by a Naples-based chef. You'll work with San Marzano tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella, master the dough from scratch, then eat what you've made alongside a local appetiser and drink. Walk away with your diploma and the muscle memory of proper pizza technique.

What to expect
You'll arrive at the kitchen and tie on your apron and hat. The chef walks you through preparing the tomatoes, then moves into dough work—mixing, folding, resting. Once it's ready, you'll learn the stretch technique, the one that takes practice. Toppings go on next: just tomato, mozzarella, basil, oil. Into the oven it goes. While it cooks, you'll have the appetiser and drink. When your pizza emerges blistered and hot, you sit down and eat it. The chef explains what went right. By the end, you'll have a sense of why Neapolitans are fussy about their pizza.
