A wonderful experience cooking and fun glimpse into life in the countryside - Cristina provided a wonderful experience in her home. We learned to cook several dishes and she provided wine, salami, and prosciutto as well. She was knowledgeable about the food we made, the history of her home, and the area. This was a one of a kind experience, truly.

One of the highlights of our trip to Tuscany - We couldn’t have had a better time with Maria Cristina and her husband at her home learning to cook some Italian dishes. She was a wonderful hostess and her beautiful home and it will be something we will remember of our visit to Tuscany.

Highlight of our trip to Florence! - This has been the highlight of our Florence trip! My boyfriend and I met Cristina at the market in the morning, we shopped for produce together; and then she drove us to her beautiful home in the country. Just the drive/views to her home alone was worth the trip! We cooked multiple courses together, enjoyed wine and cheese on her patio, and had an amazing lunch with her outside overlooking the land before she took us back to the city. Cristina was so kind and sweet, and we learned a lot from her. We are so grateful that she welcomed us into her home, and cannot say enough good things about this experience, very highly recommended! We already cannot wait to come back!

Enchanted Countryside Cooking Experience - Great experience cooking with Cristina in her beautiful home. Market visit was fun and traveling into the countryside gave us a fuller context for Firenze. Food was delicious and hostess is delightful. Could not recommend more highly

Incredible Tuscan cooking class! - We had an amazing day with Christina! She took us to the local Market to shop for items for cooking. She shared her history & stories with us about how she learned to cook with her mother. She has a beautiful home to entertain and immerse you in the Tuscan countryside. Christina is kind, professional and just a delight to spend the afternoon with. A must do if visiting Florence. We look forward to seeing her again on our next visit.

Countryside cooking class - One of life’s tick list… learning to make pasta, tiramisu and a beef carpaccio in the most idilic setting you could imagine. Our host ‘Cristina’ was charming and made us feel welcome in her beautiful countryside house. I’m so glad we choose this ‘out of town’ experience…
