    About this experience

    The experience will take place in this way: You will meet with Lorenzo, our chef directly at the crime scene! The kitchen. Here you will begin to prepare your handmade pasta, ravioli or scialatielli, with the help of Lorenzo who, through his expert hands, will explain to you the movements for making a good pasta, starting with its ingredients: water and flour. While you prepare the pasta, a nice sauce will begin to cook. Lorenzo will prepare a welcome aperitif for you and you can choose the type of menu with him... omnivorous or vegetarian! Once the pasta is ready and the water in the pot is boiling, you will cook it and eat it together with Lorenzo, who will be happy to offer you a glass of wine and a dessert, to complete your hand-made lunch... or dinner!

    An Italian Evening

    We had just arrived in Italy and were excited to begin our trip with an authentic cooking experience. Giovanni communicated very well with us beforehand and made sure we knew exactly where to meet. She welcomed us into a local apartment that felt very typical of the region, which added to the atmosphere of the evening. The original chef was unavailable, so another guide stepped in and shared recipes and techniques he had learned from his Italian mother. While everyone was friendly and did their best to create an enjoyable experience, there were a few organizational challenges, including missing ingredients and kitchen items that required several trips to the store. Even with those unexpected moments, it was a beautiful evening and we enjoyed spending time together and learning about Italian cooking. Overall, the experience was different from what we had anticipated, but we still appreciated the hospitality and effort that went into the evening.

    Response from the operator: Dear Guests, Thank you so much for sharing your detailed feedback and for your wonderful spirit of adaptability. We are thrilled that you enjoyed the authentic atmosphere of the apartment and the warmth of our team, learning recipes passed down from a real Italian mother! We sincerely apologize for the organizational challenges you experienced, such as the missing items. This is certainly not our usual standard. At Tex: Selezione di Eccellenze, we pride ourselves on rigorous control and seamless organization across all our channels, including Viator and GetYourGuide. Your notes are incredibly valuable, and we have already taken steps to ensure our kitchen checklists are flawless for future guests. We are happy that our hospitality made it a beautiful and memorable evening for your start in Italy. For your next adventures, we invite you to explore our wider collection of curated local traditions and masterclasses at www.touristexperience.net. We would love to welcome you back anytime to show you our excellence at its absolute best! Warm regards, Domenico | Tex: Selezione di Eccellenze"

    The BEST authentic Italian experience!!!

    This excursion/experience was the best part of our entire trip! Our host, Lorenzo (and his friend Georgia), were awesome! They made me and my family at home, and the dishes we made were spectacular! He taught us how to make three types of pasta, we tried a homemade local wine, and he topped off the meal with espresso and desserts from the local market. He was patient and friendly, and the two of them taught us a great deal about their culture. You cannot get a more authentic Italian experience than we had. I highly recommend this excursion and especially if you can experience it with Lorenzo! We had a great time!!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. Tourist Experience .net promotes the true authentic traditions in Naples and all over Italy.

    Wonderful food. Great experience

    This was a great experience. Alessandro made it feel as though you were cooking with a friend. He was very patient in showing us how to prepare the pasta. It was a fantastic meal. Highly recommend.

    Super experience

    Great experience. Givanna, lorenzo and their friends were super friendly and the food was great 😊. We learned how to cook raviolli and spaghetti in combination with fish. This experience is very recommended.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for choosing touristexperience.net We value authentic local experiences.

    Great Napolitan experience with Lorenzo

    Lorenzo is a lovely guy and a great cook. His house is amazing and very nice to be able to have a look inside the house and normal life off the Napoli people. He brought his friends who helped cooking, made music Napolitan style and spoke with us about the history off Napels, the habits and the culture off the people. It was a very warm and nice experience. Thanks to all ! We can very recommend this !

    Response from the operator: Thank you for choosing the authentic experiences. For us it is a great satisfaction to see tourists satisfied and happy with their experience

    Handmade Pasta Masterclass: Naples Rooftop or Secret Garden: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Naples.

    How much does Handmade Pasta Masterclass: Naples Rooftop or Secret Garden cost?

    +

    Prices start at $95 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Naples usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Handmade Pasta Masterclass: Naples Rooftop or Secret Garden take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 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 Naples is not rushed.

    Is Handmade Pasta Masterclass: Naples Rooftop or Secret Garden worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Naples, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Handmade Pasta Masterclass: Naples Rooftop or Secret Garden?

    +

    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 Handmade Pasta Masterclass: Naples Rooftop or Secret Garden suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Handmade Pasta Masterclass: Naples Rooftop or Secret Garden?

    +

    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 Naples 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 Naples and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Handmade Pasta Masterclass: Naples Rooftop or Secret Garden 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 Naples 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 Naples?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Naples experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full Day Private Amalfi Coast Tour from Sorrento/Naples/Salerno, Caserta Royal Palace & Gardens Small Group Tour with Shuttle, Naples Pizza and Tiramisu Cooking Class. 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 Naples?

    +

    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 Naples?

    +

    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.
