About this tour

Learn how to cook authentic Italian dishes in a private class led by a Roman chef, with the breathtaking views of the Colosseum as your backdrop. This immersive experience begins in the chef's kitchen, where you'll discover the art of Italian starters: master the perfect bruschetta, roast zucchini flowers (fiori di zucca) stuffed with mozzarella and anchovies, and enjoy tastings of Roman-style pizza and rich Italian cured meats.

Next, roll up your sleeves to make pasta with your hands. Form fresh tagliatelle, tagliolini or pappardelle and accompany your pasta with a traditional Roman sauce, such as carbonara, amatriciana or gricia. Your chef will guide you step by step, following the age-old secrets of Italian cuisine.

For dessert, create crispy Sicilian cannoli and a reinvented tiramisù, learning the stories behind each sweet. Throughout the tour, enjoy fine wine, a lively spritz and the rhythm of Italian music. End your experience with a toast of limoncello and unforgettable views of Rome's most iconic monument: the Colosseum.
