Real Italian Pizza, Made Where You Stay
Our pizza making class in Italy comes to your villa, apartment or holiday rental, wherever your trip takes you: Florence or Venice, the Amalfi Coast, Puglia, Sicily or the lakes. A private chef arrives with everything needed and teaches your group to make pizza and focaccia the way Italians do, from the dough to the oven.
Every pizza making class in Italy we organise is private and hands-on. Each guest kneads, stretches and tops their own pizza, and we adapt the recipe to the region you are visiting and to the oven you have: a normal home oven is enough, a wood-fired oven is a bonus. Then you eat together, straight from the oven.

Yes. We adapt the class to where you are: Neapolitan pizza near Naples and on the Amalfi Coast, focaccia in Liguria and Puglia, sfincione in Sicily.
Is it suitable for children?
Yes. Making pizza is a favourite with families, and we adapt every step so even young children can take part.
Can the pizza be gluten-free?
