Discover the art of Italian cooking in Florence, the birthplace of the Renaissance and the perfect setting to craft your own menu!

Picture yourself hand-making pasta, shopping for fresh ingredients at open-air markets, and sharing plates of classic Italian dishes with new friends who love food as much as you do. In Florence, Italy’s capital of culture and cuisine, you’ll master crowd-pleasing Italian recipes, learn from experienced chefs, and explore breathtakingly beautiful Tuscany.

In the kitchen, take daily cooking classes and culminate the summer by building your own custom menu inspired by centuries of Italian culinary tradition. Learn the details of classic recipes like ravioli, tagliatelle, pappardelle al ragù, and tiramisu. Savour gelato in the town that invented it, along with other Florentine must-eats like Panzanella (a rustic Tuscan bread salad with tomatoes, onions, herbs) and zuccotto (dome-shaped Florentine cake with chilled creamy filling).

When you’re not cooking or eating, take in Florence’s breathtaking sights. Hunt for art treasures at the Accademia Gallery, stroll the Rose Garden, and climb Torre di Arnolfo for amazing views. Head beyond Florence to the Tuscan countryside and take an unforgettable excursion to the Tuscan Coast. By the end of summer, you’ll have new cooking skills, cherished memories, and close friendships you’ll never forget.
