Great experience
It was a great experience - the cooking class as well as the dinner with a bunch of lovely people and very sweet hosts. Would definitely recommend and can‘t wait to try the recipes at home.
via Tripadvisor
Disappointing experience.
We expected to cook ourselves. It was just rolling up meat and cutting a roll of dough to make a shell of oriechette. The rest is done by "mom." Sitting outside and eating at 12 degrees is just not it either. There were blankets. The food itself was disappointing in terms of taste and quantity. With 8 participants at least 30 rolls of meat made. On the table came one for each. Bombetta we would have eaten much better elsewhere. In short; at €100 per person, it is far too much money for the experience and taste.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. It's always helpful to hear from our guests. Unfortunately, I don't fully understand the review: the experience is certainly not private, as stated on Viator. Why did you think you were cooking alone? Mamma Betrice guided you through the dough preparation. You also had a complete family recipe booklet with all the details. You prepared dozens of orecchiette, not just one, and you were personally supervised by our staff. Unfortunately, the evening was a bit chilly, and we also had more than one blanket per person and a brazier. All this at a magnificent table among the vineyards. I'm sorry you didn't enjoy it. Also, the dinner. Your comment, besides being indecipherable, is also false: I'm sorry. The quantity: you had a dinner with five appetizers, including focaccia (made by you), a meat roll you prepared, a plate of homemade orecchiette (also made by you), where you were even asked if you wanted more; wood-fired meat, dessert, and limoncello, all accompanied by four of our own wines. This is the first time we've heard such a comment about the quality: everything is homemade and cooked in a wood-fired oven, as per Apulian tradition. I'm sorry, but I disagree. Giorgio

A nice evening cooking and sharing a meal!
A fun evening learning to cook focaccia, bread, bracciole and pasta! Also touring the vineyard and learned about the wines produced at the farm. We enjoyed a delicious feast afterwards. Definitely would recommend!

Apulian Cooking Class with Dinner in the Vineyard and Wine: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Brindisi.
How much does Apulian Cooking Class with Dinner in the Vineyard and Wine cost?
+
Prices start at $112 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Brindisi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Apulian Cooking Class with Dinner in the Vineyard and Wine take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Brindisi is not rushed.
Is Apulian Cooking Class with Dinner in the Vineyard and Wine worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Brindisi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Apulian Cooking Class with Dinner in the Vineyard and Wine?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Apulian Cooking Class with Dinner in the Vineyard and Wine suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Apulian Cooking Class with Dinner in the Vineyard and Wine?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Brindisi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Brindisi and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Apulian Cooking Class with Dinner in the Vineyard and Wine start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Brindisi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Brindisi?
+
On Outty we rank every Brindisi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Wine Experience: vineyard, wines and food, Ebike tours: the villages of Valle d'Itria and tasting of typical products, Puglia Bike Tour: Cycling Through the History of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Brindisi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Brindisi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
