Looking forward to taking some cooking classes in Rome? Learn to make pasta, pizza, and glorious Italian desserts with the best chefs in the city. Check out your options!
Rome, and Italy in general, is widely renowned for its food. You only have to think about a dish of pasta, a slice of pizza, or a yummy gelato to start drooling, and the best part about being in Rome is you’ll actually get to taste them all!

But there really is no better way to experience Italian cuisine than by taking a cooking class in Rome, learning the secrets and art of preparing some of the world’s most beloved meals, and getting to eat them afterward…paired with a good glass of Italian wine. This and a food tour in Rome are a must.
I’ve prepared a list of the absolute best cooking classes in Rome, Italy, to add to your Rome itinerary. This way you (and your family!) can have a fantastic time, eat deliciously, and go home with some very precious recipes. Check them out!
I usually use (and recommend) Viator and GetYourGuide for booking tours around the world, and I particularly love their cancellation policy. If for any reason your travel plans change, you can get a full refund on most activities canceling up to 24 hours in advance.
