What a fun way to engage in the food experience of Genova! We adored making and tasting local Cuisine, including pesto, shortbread, and focaccia. Veronica and Bernardo were both professional and fun! Molto bene!

My friends bought me a solo ticket for this course as a graduation gift, so I had to join some others I didn’t know to participate. At the time, I was recovering from an injury that made it hard for me to stand for long periods. This made me a little worried about going alone, but I didn’t want to miss out! When our local expert Veronica learned this, she was incredibly accommodating and kind. She ensured I had places to rest and was even taking pictures for me so I could show my friends later. The course was a lot of fun with great atmosphere. I felt like I learned a lot. Plus the food was delicious! I am looking forward to making it again someday for my friends to try. I was really glad I decided to take a chance on joining in the end!

Our tour guide Veronica was fabulous. The chef that worked with and taught us couldn’t have been better. I would highly recommend this tour. In addition to learning some wonderful recipes, we learned a little Italian along the way.

The entire experience was memorable. We loved how passionate each of our chefs were in teaching our group the history and techniques in making our three dishes.
