16 tours · €52–€170 per person · ★ 4.9
Find your Palermo cooking class among 16 tours: we read every listing and kept only those rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €52 per person for pizza making with a gelato demonstration to €170 for a Sicilian cooking class in Palermo with wine tasting and lunch or dinner. A pasta class in Palermo lets you make your meal, then sit down to eat what you prepared.
Check the option before you book: the market and cooking class and the pasta and gelato class are separate options, so the market visit does not come with both. The pasta alla Norma option skips tiramisu. One pasta and tiramisu class offers allergy substitutes but teaches the traditional recipe and cannot guarantee against cross contamination. The best reviewed Palermo cooking classes come first below.

Wine comes with the meal on several classes here, for example the pasta and tiramisu class by Cesarine and the restaurant class with wine. Where a listing says nothing about wine, do not assume it. Cesarine pasta and tiramisu: €79 per person, rated 4.9 from 123 reviews. Wine is included; the express option omits tiramisu. Carlo V pasta and tiramisu: €69 per person, rated 4.91 from 716 reviews. Prosecco and wine are included. Both listings offer evening departures.
Book Authentic Sicilian Cooking Class in Bagheria for its listed vegan or gluten free option; arrange your own transport. The restaurant pasta class is not recommended for vegans or coeliacs. Authentic Sicilian cooking class: €86 per person, rated 5 from 48 reviews, listed for vegan or gluten free cooking, with transport not included. Restaurant pasta and tiramisu class with wine: €69 per person, rated 4.91 from 716 reviews. Elsewhere on the page one school asks that severe allergies be checked first and one home class lists no gluten free menu. No filter covers diets, so read the listing and tell the operator before you book.
For a family pasta lesson, start with Fresh Pasta and Tiramisu in Bagheria, which lists child tickets and stroller access. Arrange your own transport; the kids filter does not establish every age limit. Strollers and infants accepted: 11 of 16 category listings. This is the kids filter predicate, not a promise that every child can participate. Fresh Pasta and Tiramisu: €85 per person, rated 4.99 from 106 reviews. Child tickets are listed and transport is excluded. Confirm your child’s age when choosing the booking option.
For a kitchen reserved for your party, choose the private market class option at Towns of Italy. It meets at the cooking school; hotel transport is not listed for that option. The category marks none of 16 listings private, but this does not cover every booking option. Sicilian Cooking Class with Market Tour or Pasta & Gelato: €61 per person, rated 4.96 from 370 reviews. This starting price is for the shared Pasta & Gelato option. The same listing offers a separately priced private market class. Its meeting point is the cooking school on Via Volturno.
