Authentic, fun and delicious! Can't wait to try my new skills at home. - I spent an absolutely delightful evening with Veronica. She told me the word "Cesarine" is associated with the stewardship and passing on of cultural traditions, and her passion for and enjoyment of this was so clear. Everything was so nicely prepared for our session, and I really loved making the pasta and tiramisu together...and it was delicious, too! I felt very welcomed into her home, for an experience that was personal and authentic. But also everything was very professional, too, with her kitchen lab a bit separate from the main family home. Definitely a, maybe even the highlight of my trip to Italy. Highly recommend!!

Vincenzo is the best host ever! - What an incredible experience! From the amazing view of Lake Como we enjoyed from Vincenzo's balcony to the scrumptious meal we helped to prepare (we made two different types of pasta that Vincenzo turned into dishes that delighted our tastebuds! and tiramisu!), our time in his kitchen was the perfect ending to our stay in this beautiful part of the country. We even left with instructions on how to make the lemoncello back home in the states - he served this to us as a final treat for the evening. Salute!

A warm, welcoming, and delicious experience - This was the highlight of our two week trip to Italy. Carolina and Simona are warm and welcoming hosts. We were delighted to see how real Italians live . Carolina is a wonderful and patient teacher, and our meal was delicious.

Terrible service!!!!! - Cannot get hold of supplier. I have still not received an update as to where and when this booking will be. I am not happy at all. I booked this on Wednesday, I then did not hear from you regarding where I need to go and when so I messaged you to chase a location for the booking and received the below response at 6:30pm that you would contact me. I then received no update as to where to go. At 10:30am the following day I then received a phone call from a lady called Roberta who was apparently waiting for me at her house, but I had not received the location or confirmation from you at Viatour. Roberta then said we could not proceed with the booking. I am still waiting to hear back from you as to when I can make the booking. I only have today and tomorrow before I leave back to the UK. I have called in twice now with no resolution and have just been disconnected on a call and no one has called me back. I am beyond unhappy with this service. I will not be booking again, what a shame!!!!
