Description:
Visit Sorrento and learn the art of the traditional Italian pizza – a dish at the heart of every
Napolitan!
Your hands-on cooking class focuses on the essential techniques needed to recreate the perfect pizza in your home - from preparing the dough to baking a delicious hot pizza complete with your favorite toppings!
Participants in this class will create authentic Italian pizza dough from scratch, incorporating scrumptious ingredients and various toppings. Perfect for vegetarians and meat lovers alike.
Pizza never tasted this good and once you have practiced making your own authentic Neapolitan style pizza, you will be equipped with the necessary skills to recreate the experience right in the comforts of your very own home (alas, perhaps without the surrounding lemon trees and wood oven, unless you are very lucky!)
The pizza oven is heating up and almost ready to create delicious pizza masterpieces!

Testimonials
"Our cooking instructor was not only very informative but she was enjoyable to spend time with, as was her family. It was difficult to say goodbye. Needless to say, we learned much more than simply how to make pizza. We learned a lot about Sorrentine culture too. They treated us like family and we can't say enough good about them. Jess and I both commented that we would have paid much more for the class had we known how enjoyable it would be.
We will certainly be referring friends your way and plan to visit again in the future also."

"Please relay our many thanks to our cooking instructor for what has become the highlight of our trip. She is truly a gem."
"I just wanted to say thank you for an amazing itinerary you put together for us. We had an AMAZING fun packed day in Sorrento.
It was nice not having to worry about any of the details. It was flawless.
I think the Pizza class was one of our highlights during our entire stay. She was an amazing host, I cannot say enough about her and her sister and her nephew Ernesto. We felt like we were there for a family gathering. She went above and beyond to please us. By the end of the night, I did feel like we were family and I did not want to leave.
Thank you again for setting everything up. I will and have already recommended your website to some of our traveling friends."

Just got back from Italy yesterday and the cooking lesson was the highlight of our trip. I would highly recommend them to your clients, they were warm, accommodating, and the greatest hosts we could ask for! I might also add that you could enter a little section on their page regarding that they offer great accommodations to go along with their cooking classes, although we didn't stay there it looked wonderful! Thanks again for your assistance.

- Puentes Family
We as a group of eight were staying in Sorrento for one week. We decided to do the Pizza al Forno cooking class and it turn out to be the highlight of the week. We had a fun filled day learning all the trick of the trade. I am going to try and replicate the pizza at home. I would recommend anyone visiting in the area to do this cooking lesson.
