City Experiences has expanded its travel offerings with a newly refreshed cooking school experience in Rome’s popular neighborhood of Trastevere. Guests will discover the secrets of Italian cooking with local master chefs with a pasta- and pizza-making class. This product marks the first collaboration between Walks and Devour Tours, both part of the City Experiences portfolio.
As cooking classes have become popular throughout Italy, City Experiences says its cooking school stands apart with its brightly lit, private commercial kitchen—a rarity in Trastevere, where most classes take place in a local apartment.
Classes in City Experiences’ Rome cooking school are available to book online. Both classes offer the opportunity to cook and dine like a local, with each culminating in an intimate three-course dinner:
- “Rome Pizza-Making Class & Dinner in Trastevere” – A local, master chef welcomes guests with a classic aperitif of bruschetta and prosecco before sharing step-by-step instructions to craft an authentic Italian pizza, from kneading and stretching the dough to selecting the perfect toppings. The evening ends with homemade gelato, made on-site, for dessert.
- “Rome Pasta-Making Class: Cook, Dine & Drink Wine With A Local Chef” – In this hands-on pasta-making class, guests learn how to make and roll their own dough, choose the right shape for the right sauce, and discover why the best pasta dishes are often the simplest. Guests can enjoy gelato for dessert and plenty of Italian wine throughout.
Walks, which began as Walks of Italy, has cultivated deep roots in Rome, building strong local relationships that have translated to exclusive guest experiences. Devour Tours, founded in nearby Spain, has a similarly long history in Rome. Both brands exemplify City Experiences’ mission to provide one-of-a-kind experiential travel offerings.
