Vatican Tour & Authentic Italian Cooking Class | Private

When you have plenty of curiosity and only a little time, this private guided tour perfectly blends two truly Roman experiences: art and food.

First, you will explore a treasure-trove of masterpieces within the Vatican Museums, including the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s Basilica. Your expert guide will give you the chance to discover the Vatican’s many Renaissance masterpieces from famed artists such as Michelangelo, Botticelli, Raphael, and Perugino.

Next, we will make our way to a stunning 17th-century palace for an authentic Italian cooking class. Set around the corner from Piazza Navona, you will learn how to create a delicious Italian meal, either pizza or pasta, with either gelato or tiramisù.

Great family activity! Our family of three experienced the pizza and gelato making class with Alessandro! What a fun evening! Alessandro made it fun for us all (including our teen!) and we made gelato and pizza from scratch! Everything we made was delicious. A truly fun family experience!

A must do! We had an incredible cooking class last night with the very charming Marco. Marco taught us how to cook two classic pasta dishes and Tiramisu. Would highly recommend! 5*

A Fun Time Making Pizza and Gelato in the Heart of Rome We took the 2½ hour Pizza and Gelato Making Class with InRome Cooking, which began at 5:30 pm and was a block from Piazza Navona.

As the participants arrived, it began with a prosecco and snacks reception, followed by the cooking classes, and ended with a meal of the pizza and gelato we had made, with wine and soft drinks.

Our chef, Giulio, was friendly, knowledgeable, informative and had a great sense of humor. We learned a lot from him and had a lot of fun. The group size was 8 adults and a child, which fit comfortably around the large prep island in the kitchen where we prepared our pizzas (with many toppings available) and the gelato (a choice of 3 flavors). Everyone was very friendly, had a great time, and enjoyed the pizza and gelato that we had made.

I highly recommend this class.
