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.

Amazing authentic experience Such an amazing class! We did the shared Pizza & Gelato making class. This was one of our favourite things we did in Italy! We did it with our children (4&7yrs of age). We also ended up paired with another lovely family with children the same age. It was such a fun evening!
The instructor was amazing, he encouraged the kids to do everything on their own. There was so much fun & laughter. Everything was perfectly organized. The food turned out amazing. We can't wait to recreate the recipes now that we are back home! We did this on our last night in Rome and it was a perfect ending to our trip.

A Wonderful Roman Experience We (party of 4 including grandparents and teenager) took a class in pasta making with 3 sauces. It was very interesting but also very fun. A very relaxed atmosphere and a wonderful teacher/chef in Giulio. The lesson is the first part and at the end we sat and ate our dishes - much more food than we needed, of course. Just wonderful!

Superb way to end our Italian journey. I would give it a 10 if possible. Favio was an excellent teacher. His explanations were easy to follow and a good overview of the dishes. The final outcome was the best we've had after 11 days including other Italian cities. Perfect activity!
