So fun!
Wonderful experience! Loved making pasta with the Nanna! So fun! The place was beautiful! They picked us up and dropped off at train station. Food was amazing! Dancing was super fun. Only thing I’d change is when some people are waiting to dance while others being served dinner (not doing dancing) maybe offer people waiting a drink or water. We did wait a while, to start dancing due to others needing to be served dinner, it was fine but it would be nice to offer a drink. Would recommend to couples wanting to do a cooking class, dancing, and visit with others. We loved the group we were with, so many nice people. A very intimate experience.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this wonderful and detailed review! ❤️ We’re delighted that you enjoyed our Orecchiette Cooking Class & Pizzica Dance experience in Ostuni, from making traditional pasta with our Nonna to the Apulian food, dancing and meeting other guests. Thank you also for your helpful feedback. We’re sorry we didn’t manage to offer you a drink while you were waiting for the Pizzica class to begin. This is something we normally do, but unfortunately on that particular evening, while coordinating dinner service and the dance class, we must have missed it. We really appreciate you pointing it out. Bringing people together through traditional Apulian food, handmade orecchiette and Pizzica is exactly the kind of authentic experience we want to create in Puglia, so we’re especially happy that you loved the intimate and social atmosphere of the evening. We hope to welcome you back to Ostuni! ❤️ Senti La Puglia – Feel the Soul of Puglia

Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Brindisi.
How much does Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo cost?
+
Prices start at $113 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 Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo 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 Brindisi is not rushed.
Is Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Brindisi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo?
+
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 Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo 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 Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo?
+
Around 3 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo 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, Puglia Bike Tour: Cycling Through the History of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Mozzarella Experience - Cheese Tasting Tour at Masseria Fragnite. 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.
What is included in Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo?
+
Included: Meals; Apron; tools for making pasta; and Alcoholic beverages. Not included: Private transportation. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo?
+
THERE IS NO MEETING POINT! We will share the location on whatsapp on the day of the experience (please leave your WhatsApp) Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Italian. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Ostuni Orecchiette Cooking Class Pizzica Dance Class Combo if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
