About this tour
Learn to shape Tuscan pasta by hand in a local's countryside kitchen near Campagnatico, then sit down to eat what you've made. Over three hours, you'll pick vegetables from the garden, work through traditional techniques for tortelli and tagliatelle, and finish with a proper meal paired with local wine. It's cooking in someone's home, not a studio—expect authentic, unhurried, and genuinely personal.
Highlights
- Pick herbs and vegetables straight from the garden
- Hand-roll tortelli, tagliatelle, and potato gnocchi
- Cook and eat in a local Tuscan home
- Two glasses of local wine included
- Learn regional techniques from your host
What to expect
You'll arrive at a traditional farmhouse and begin by harvesting what the day's meal needs—herbs, tomatoes, whatever's ready. Then move to the kitchen for a hands-on two-hour session: your host will demonstrate each pasta shape, then guide you through rolling, cutting, and filling by hand. No shortcuts, no machines. Afterwards, sit at the table with your creations, fresh bread, wine, and dessert. The pace is relaxed and conversational. You'll learn why they do things a certain way, not just the steps.
Good to know
No air conditioning—it's a real home, not a facility. Dietary needs (gluten-free, vegan, etc.) are accommodated with advance notice. Menu varies by season. Get yourself to Campagnatico; the host doesn't provide transport to or from your accommodation.
