About this experience
Step into an authentic Tuscan kitchen in the heart of Florence and dive into the world of Italian cuisine with this hands-on cooking class. Just a short walk from the iconic Duomo, this experience offers you the chance to learn traditional recipes, connect with local culinary culture, and create delicious memories to take home. Our expert chefs will guide you through the process of making two classic types of fresh pasta: fettuccine and ravioli. Starting from scratch with simple, high-quality ingredients like flour and eggs, you’ll learn how to knead, roll, and shape the dough by hand. You’ll then prepare savory fillings and craft your own ravioli, along with ribbons of fettuccine ready to be paired with rich, authentic sauces made with seasonal ingredients.

Book it! It’s work every penny and every minute.
This was so fun. Sam was a passionate and knowledgeable teacher-chef; her positive energy made the experience so much fun for even my teenage kids. Unlimited wine was nice too. I was expecting a “decent” wine, but it was really good. We made and ate our own pasta, ravioli and proper Italian tiramisu. I highly recommend this experience for solo or family travelers.

Excellent class!
We had a great time! When we got there, someone was outside asking if we are here for the pasta course, and checked our name and told us to head in. They asked everyone to wash their hands first and then once everyone was there the class started. Everything was explained well, the teacher was really good and helpful and we had a great time making the dishes! You eat exactly what you make, they label the plates with a number and whilst you wait for the pasta to be boiled by the chefs, the teacher makes fresh tiramisu and gets everyone involved which was nice. Highly recommend the class!

A fun experience for the whole family!!
We enjoyed the cooking class so much! We were a very big group with many different ages, and the instructors were so attentive to each person! Explaining in many languages, helping the kids, and sharing history as well as cooking advices. Very recommended!!
via Tripadvisor
Unique experience
Very fun and unique experience. Our food turned out surprisingly good. Our chef/teacher (who had 9 brothers, I have lost his name) had enough energy for the whole room and more. He was helpful and friendly in addition to the humor and enthusiasm he shared.

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Florence Cooking Class: Vegetarian Pasta and Dessert Making: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Florence Cooking Class: Vegetarian Pasta and Dessert Making cost?
+
Prices start at $19 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Florence Cooking Class: Vegetarian Pasta and Dessert Making take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 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 Florence is not rushed.
Is Florence Cooking Class: Vegetarian Pasta and Dessert Making worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Florence Cooking Class: Vegetarian Pasta and Dessert Making?
+
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 Florence Cooking Class: Vegetarian Pasta and Dessert Making suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Florence Cooking Class: Vegetarian Pasta and Dessert Making?
+
Around 4 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 Florence 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 Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Florence Cooking Class: Vegetarian Pasta and Dessert Making 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 Florence 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 Florence?
+
On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici Tales - guided by a STORYTELLER, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class & Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner. 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 Florence?
+
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 Florence?
+
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.
