Fresh pasta cooking class in Pisa, with dinner & Tuscan wine

Three hours inside Italy's oldest hotel: make two types of fresh pasta and two traditional sauces with a local chef, then share the meal with unlimited red wine.

The experience

A real Italian cooking class, not a show

Our pasta making class in Pisa is a practical experience: you work at the table with flour, eggs and a rolling pin, guided step by step by our chef. You learn how to prepare two types of fresh handmade pasta and two traditional Italian sauces using classic techniques — then everyone sits down to enjoy the full meal together.

It all happens inside the Royal Victoria Hotel, the oldest hotel in Italy, right on the Arno in the historic centre. It is the kind of experience that turns a quick visit to Pisa into a memory.

What you will make

Fresh pasta, the way Italians make it

Fresh egg pasta

Make the dough from scratch, knead it, roll it and cut it into ribbons like tagliatelle.

Filled or shaped pasta

Learn to fill, fold and shape by hand — the gestures behind ravioli and other traditional formats.

Two traditional sauces

Simple, balanced sauces with few quality ingredients — the real secret of Italian cooking.

Pasta shapes and sauces may vary with the season and the chef's choice.
