Cooking classes in Arezzo deliver authentic Tuscan cuisine instruction in small, intimate settings. Most classes run 3-4 hours and include a full meal with wine pairings.
We’re especially fond of the farmhouse experiences outside town, where you’ll learn traditional recipes using fresh-picked ingredients. Private home classes, limited to 6-8 students, offer the best hands-on instruction for pasta-making and local specialties. Prices typically range from €85-150 per person.
We particularly recommend morning classes that start with market visits – they provide valuable insights into selecting seasonal ingredients and interacting with local vendors.
The pizza and gelato workshops are perfect for families with children.
