Unique and freindly experience.
Giovannie is a very likable host. He made this experience feel like a family event. Working under his direction was like being in the kitchen with your chef brother. Creating and chating like you would at the family table. The best meal comes from the preparation. So much great food was enjoyed on Giovannie and Robeorta's roof top terrace. Gazzie Melli Giovannie for shareing so much about your family history and your knowledge of Sicily. We won't forget you or this evening.

Great experience, delicious food
We had a great time at our pasta and tiramisu making class with Carlotta! She was so kind and engaging - very thorough in her explanation for making the pasta and giving us a hands-on experience. We made both tortolloni and tagliatelle which were absolutely delicious! We were so grateful to be welcomed into Carlotta's home and eat with her the fruits of our labor! So fun, and highly recommend!

Italian only.
Carlotta the host is super nice but she doesn't speak any English. My family couldn’t understand anything she was saying.
Response from the operator: Dear Micky, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the language barrier affected your family’s experience. We understand how important clear communication is, especially during a cooking experience where explanations and interaction are a key part of the activity. We apologise that the level of English spoken did not meet your expectations and that this made it difficult for your family to fully enjoy the experience. We will take your feedback into consideration and work with the host to improve the communication aspect of the experience. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Palermo: Sicilian Pasta & Tiramisu Class with Wine by Cesarine: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Palermo.
How much does Palermo: Sicilian Pasta & Tiramisu Class with Wine by Cesarine cost?
+
Prices start at $90 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Palermo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Palermo: Sicilian Pasta & Tiramisu Class with Wine by Cesarine 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 Palermo is not rushed.
Is Palermo: Sicilian Pasta & Tiramisu Class with Wine by Cesarine worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 123 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Palermo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Palermo: Sicilian Pasta & Tiramisu Class with Wine by Cesarine?
+
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 Palermo: Sicilian Pasta & Tiramisu Class with Wine by Cesarine 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 Palermo: Sicilian Pasta & Tiramisu Class with Wine by Cesarine?
+
Around 43 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 Palermo 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 Palermo and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Palermo: Sicilian Pasta & Tiramisu Class with Wine by Cesarine 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 Palermo 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 Palermo?
+
On Outty we rank every Palermo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Palermo Pizza and Gelato Cooking Class with Meal and Wine, Palermo Food Tour: 10+ Tastings of Arancini, Cannoli, Wine & More, The Original Palermo Street Food & Market Tour (All-Inclusive!). 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 Palermo?
+
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 Palermo?
+
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.
