The Ultimate Capri Culinary Experience

Immerse yourself in the rich gastronomic heritage of the 'Blue Island' with a curated Capri cooking class. These experiences take you beyond the tourist traps and into the heart of Italian hospitality. Whether you are kneading dough on a private terrace in Anacapri, picking fresh herbs from a family vegetable garden, or even learning to fish and cook on a private boat, you will discover the techniques behind world-famous dishes like Ravioli Capresi, Neapolitan pizza, and Tiramisu. Guided by local chefs and nonnas, these classes emphasize the use of fresh, seasonal ingredients and traditional methods passed down through generations. Most sessions conclude with a convivial feast where you enjoy your creations paired with local wines, all while soaking in breathtaking views of the Gulf of Naples.

Authentic and Welcoming

We did the garden tour and cooking class. Picking our own herbs made such a difference. It felt like cooking with family rather than a tour.

Great Pizza Class

Very hands-on. My kids loved kneading the dough. The terrace views are even better than the photos.
