Cooking Class in Tuscany

We recently returned from Italy, and we stayed the night at Podere Vergianoni a family-run villa with guest rooms. Here are some details "Vergianoni Tuscany Experiences  is our original and local family-run tour operator, dedicated to sharing the local lifestyle, old traditions, and hidden gems of Tuscany through personalized and authentic experiences with us and our family!

This idea was born from our deep love and passion for this special region in Italy that has always been home for us: two brothers, Niccolò and Mattia, born and raised in Tuscany, who, after playing basketball around Italy for many years, decided to return home and make their dream come true — to give life to our unique and original family-run tour operator with all our family in our ancient tuscan home built in 1600 located in Chianti organizing personalized and private experiences, in maximum comfort, to live authentic and traditional moments together with us and make your stay in Tuscany unique and special!

We will share with you the true local traditions, places, and food culture that have always been passed down through our family generations."

My husband stayed at the Airbnb a couple of years ago with his friends. They arrived late at night after an accident in the hire car and were towed to another town. Niccolo made quite the impression, giving them wine and pizza late at night and driving them to Florence the next day to catch a train. He wanted to return with us to experience the place, and we all wanted to take a cooking class. 

The setting was magical, overlooking vineyards and the sunset. 

The kids really enjoyed making pasta with Niccolò's Mom; she was lovely. The family is from the area and has a love for Tuscany, its land, food, and traditions. 

The tagliatelle, it wasn't so hard to make, but I am not sure it will be as good here, it needs semolina flour from Italy, I feel. 

After we made the Pasta, they set up appetizers on the table outside our room, you can see bruschetta and pesto, also cream cheese and truffles. The Dad had found this that morning with their dog!

Lots of cheese and meats, with fruit. 

Then the pasta and homemade pesto that we had helped make, with wine and tiramisu for dessert!

The attention to detail, with lovely place settings and a slow, relaxed experience to savor the food, was wonderful. Please do consider visiting this family; you will love it.

They are also local tour operators and can arrange many more activities for you!
