Tour description
Step into a charming 17th-century villa nestled in the peaceful hills of Lake Como for an exclusive private cooking class. Surrounded by lush gardens, fruit orchards, and olive groves, this hands-on experience invites you to create fresh Italian pasta using locally sourced ingredients while enjoying breathtaking lake views.
Your culinary journey begins with a warm welcome at the villa, where you’ll discuss the menu and select seasonal ingredients from the on-site vegetable garden. From freshly picked herbs to sun-ripened produce, every element of your dish is rooted in the land’s natural bounty.
Under the guidance of an expert host, you’ll start crafting homemade pasta from scratch, learning the secrets behind traditional Italian techniques. If the weather allows, the class begins outdoors on the villa’s panoramic patio, offering an unforgettable cooking experience immersed in nature. As the final touches are made in the kitchen, enjoy a delightful aperitivo, savoring local flavors before sitting down to enjoy your meal.
Dine al fresco on the terrace or in the villa’s elegant dining room, both offering stunning lake views. Your meal is paired with carefully selected local wines, creating the perfect balance between food, scenery, and tradition. End your experience with a freshly brewed Italian coffee and a homemade dessert, before departing with new skills, unforgettable memories, and a deeper connection to the culinary heritage of Lake Como.
Perfect for food lovers and travelers seeking an authentic Italian experience, this private cooking class blends history, nature, and gastronomy into an unforgettable moment of discovery and indulgence.
