Naples · COOKING CLASSES
Fresh pasta, mozzarella pulled by hand, tiramisu that never leaves home. These 15 classes span Naples kitchens and Amalfi Coast farmhouses, priced and honest about how much you actually cook versus watch.
Hands-on Naples pasta class: make ravioli and fettuccine with Alfredo and San Marzano tomato sauce, plus appetizer, drink, and a diploma.
“We absolutely loved our experience! Visited for our son’s birthday! Our host was the absolute best’ highly recommended!!”
Half-day Amalfi farm-to-table cooking class. Pick lemons and herbs, learn pasta and desserts, then dine with wine, limoncello, and espresso.
“Great Couples night or Family night out for Dinner in the 3pm timeslot. Cooking is a shared experience good for even novice cooks.”
Amalfi Coast pasta, mozzarella and tiramisu class in a hillside farm near Positano. Hands-on cooking, farm wine, small group.
“Confusing experience. Really wonderful people in the class, but the class itself doesn’t teach a lot. The recipes are “on Instagram” for if you want to use them later. Each person doesn’t get to do much in terms of making the food. It’s a long bus ride to get to the place from most locations and the bus does not operate frequently, so we ended up leaving the class and having to wait two hours for the bus. In most cooking classes, I walk away feeling like I could make the item myself. That was not the case here, but I did feel like I had a fun homemade meal…”
Naples pasta and tiramisù class in central Restaurant San Carlo 17. Make 3 pastas, dessert, wine or soda, then espresso.
“Really fun activity, well organised and great value for money. A must do in Naples. Also watched the pizza class as on the other side of the room and also looked great.”
Cook family recipes in Praiano with Rocco and Carla, using garden and local ingredients, plus homemade wine, pasta skills, and scenic views.
“Rocco and Carla were so hospitable and welcoming into their charming and picturesque cooking space. Carla was a patiently wonderful teacher and made us feel as if we were the best cooks in the world. The experience was amazing and the food delectable. Do not miss out on this experience!”
Amalfi cooking class in terraced gardens, pick fresh produce, cook 4 dishes, then eat a 4-course meal with wine, limoncello, and espresso.
“What an amazing experience we had! From the moment of arriving, greeted by friendly staff and our main host Francesco was fantastic! Very detailed tour of the beautiful gardens where we picked some ingredients and a fun enjoyable cooking session. The staff were lovely and made our experience very entertaining. We highly recommend this experience if you visit the Amalfi Coast. You will not be disappointed! Delicious food and they even offer you to take food home if you like. We would definitely do this again if we come back to Amalfi. You also receive recipes to continue cooking what you learnt at home. Thanks again to the amazing team…”
Hands-on Amalfi Coast farm cooking class in Pianillo. Make mozzarella, tagliatelle, and tiramisù with local wine and views.
“Fabulous. Wonderful. Excellent. We were met in the alley by, Michael, Fernando’s assistant. It was something out of the children’s movie, Ratatouille as he was driving his moped he stopped us and said, “you here for cooking class, follow me” as he sped away. The class was great, the gentlemen were both entertaining and educating. It is hands on as everyone has a part in making what became lunch. The food was delicious and they kept the wine flowing. They really involved our kids ages 12 and 15. Excellent views from the little farm looking over the hillsides and even a glimpse of the Mediterranean Sea. An excellent day!Read more”
Small-group Positano cooking class in a local home, making gnocchi, tiramisù, Prosecco aperitivo, and wine with an English guide.
“This was the best experience we had throughout our time in Italy! Emily and her family were so welcoming and you could tell how much emotion and love they had for sharing their personal stories and history through food. The food was amazing and so much fun to learn how to make! We were nervous with the transportation to and from the class but Emily made it very easy by arranging a car for us to share with other guests so we all arrived together and on time! This was such a once in a lifetime experience with hosts that truly care about what they do and connect personally to…”
Private Amalfi Coast cooking class in Scala with Marco and Tano: garden harvest, pasta and pizza, then wine and limoncello on the terrace.
“We were in Ravello on our honeymoon and lucky enough to book this cooking class with Marco and Tano. They are INCREDIBLE! From the minute you step foot on the property, they greet you and give you a tour through the gardens. They make it feel like you are extended family in their kitchen the entire time. This experience was a highlight of our entire trip, and we have carried much of what we learned from Marco and Tano into our daily lives back in the states. You will not regret this experience, it truly is one of a kind!”
Small-group Amalfi home cooking with farm-grown pasta, seasonal desserts, and their homemade wine in Praiano.
“We wanted an authentic, non-touristy experience, and we found it here! Rocco & Carla helped us make our own traditional Italian meal — complete with a starter, pasta and dessert. They explained & showed us how to do it all, and they weren’t afraid to crack jokes at our expense too. The food was great! The community was better. It’s a must-do if you’re staying in Praiano.”
Family-run ravioli and tagliatelle class at a Positano home, with garden picking, wine and limoncello, plus tiramisu in a small group.

Private Naples cooking class with Savio. Make fettuccine, ravioli, San Marzano tomato sauce, and pizza, then eat with local wine.
“Our experience in Savio's kitchen was absolutely wonderful. He is very charismatic and an amazing host. We wished we had done this experience in the first day or our stay because he recommended us lots of other activities that are not easy to find by yourself (hidden gems of Napoli and surroundings). The pizza and pasta we cooked turned up to be delicious and we had so much fun cooking them.”
