BOOK WITH CAUTION
I booked this Pizzeria Pizza making experience for my 11 year old son and I by clicking through on Tripadvisor. I booked it in September for 28 Oct class. Booked on the strength of the description and photo that it was in a Pizzeria. My booking form they emailed to me was not for the Chef's Cooking Experience. This is the link for Pizzeria Course I booked (which they said was impossible as not on TripAdvisor) https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/AttractionProductReview-g187871-d13797719-Verona_Cooking_Class_Italian_Pizza_Making-Verona_Province_of_Verona_Veneto.html What they sent me on was this: https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/AttractionProductReview-g187871-d13921080-Cooking_Class_experience_at_chef_s_house_in_Verona_center-Verona_Province_of_Veron.html Not what I booked and I was too polite to say anything to our host Michela as she was the nicest of ladies and the class was in her home / did not want to offend her or make her feel awkward. I also did not want my son to be disappointed as to not be having a cooking activity as we were only in Verona for 2 nights. I contacted Romeo & Juliet once we arrived home and found the Romeo & Juliet staff hugely unhelpful. This was a very expensive mistake on their part for us and I was really unhappy but they just came up with lots of excuses as to why it was not their problem. Ranging from it not being their fault that it was on Tripadvisor as Tripadvisor a separate company etc. when we all know it's just a platform and the onus is on the company to provide the information about themselves and what they offer. As you'll see it's still up there as a Pizzeria experience. I've never written a bad review before and contacted them to take it up privately with them, looking for some kind of recourse. I could go on but I think you get my point Only rating it 1 Star / terrible as it was not what I booked and customer services were dreadful. Michela the chef was lovely
Response from the operator: Dear Hicky - We are sorry to hear you were not happy with your experience with us. We were surprised to hear your issues as they were not addressed during our time together. We wish you would have given us the opportunity to discuss and address it then so we could have found a workable solution. All out tours and activities are clearly defined on our site and Viator. So, we are confused on some of your feedback. Please know that we pride ourselves on offering 5-star service, as our reviews reflect. We are very sorry that our service did not meet your expectations and it’s being taken to the level of wanting money back. That is quite serious to us. So, next time I warmly suggest you to say something BEFORE the tour And in front of us! So we can fix it Asking money back After few days is not fair and honest! Thank you. Our best regards

Perfect day!
My husband and I met Sara for the food and wine walking tour of Verona. We also brought along our one year old daughter, and as an oversight, forgot to give Sara a heads up ahead of time. However, Sara skillfully adapted our tour so that it would fit the attention span and interests of a toddler while also giving us an informative, detailed, and delicious tour. She also gave us recommendations for dinner (and made the reservation!), and told us about a town to visit during our drive back home. Her insider tips made our short weekend in Verona completely worthwhile. I highly recommend one of her tours, especially if you’re trying to fit a lot into a little bit of time. She’s flexible, knowledgeable, and fun!

Sweet hospitality and delicious dishes prepared!
My sister and I are visiting Verona and thought it would be fun to take a cooking class. We booked it and Makela greeted us and took us to her home where we enjoyed preparing three different dishes (calzone, pizza, and tiramisu). Makela was so warm and welcoming and explained so much about Italian food and it’s regional dishes. With her guidance and fresh ingredients, all three dishes were delicious and enjoyed with local wine. A very fun time spent cooking, visiting and eating! Thank you, Makela, for a very memorable day!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much! we had a great time, too! take care, and we hope to see you again

Pizza Cooking Class
Our cooking experience with Chef Antonio was both fun and educational. Each of us were able to create our own pizzas from start to finish. And, the best part was eating our homemade pizzas at the end of the process. Antonio was an excellent teacher. He was encouraging and made this experience fun. He told us about his Italian family, his experience in the USA and his pizza business. His wonderful assistant helped throughout and also agreed to take some photos with my camera so we would have pictures of this great experience to add to our photo book after our trip.

Pizza cooking class in a true pizzeria in the heart of Verona: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Verona.
How much does Pizza cooking class in a true pizzeria in the heart of Verona cost?
+
Prices start at $131 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Verona usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Pizza cooking class in a true pizzeria in the heart of Verona take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Verona is not rushed.
Is Pizza cooking class in a true pizzeria in the heart of Verona worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Verona, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

+
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 Pizza cooking class in a true pizzeria in the heart of Verona suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Pizza cooking class in a true pizzeria in the heart of Verona?
+
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 Verona 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 Verona and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Pizza cooking class in a true pizzeria in the heart of Verona 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 Verona 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 Verona?
+

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 Verona?
+
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 Verona?
+
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.
