Itinerary:

Your Tuscan culinary adventure begins with a trip to one of Florence’s bustling historical food markets. Here, you’ll shop like a local, selecting the freshest, most flavorful ingredients as your chef shares insights into each choice and how it will contribute to the day's recipes.

With baskets filled with seasonal produce, you’ll then travel into the beautiful Tuscan countryside, arriving at a charming farmhouse surrounded by vineyards and olive groves. Under the guidance of an expert chef, you’ll dive into a hands-on cooking lesson, learning to make classic Italian dishes from scratch. From creating perfect bruschetta to mastering handmade pasta, savoring the scents of roast pork in the oven, and whipping up a creamy tiramisù, you’ll discover the secrets behind these Tuscan favorites.

Once the dishes are ready, it’s time to sit down and indulge in the meal you’ve crafted, each bite complemented by fine Chianti wine and other local varietals. As the afternoon comes to a close, you’ll leave with new culinary skills, authentic Tuscan recipes, and a cooking diploma—a perfect reminder of the delicious day you spent immersed in Italy’s rich food culture.
