Guidekin's take

A market first, then the kitchen: a walk through the Nomentano market to see the ingredients, a pasta class with an Italian chef and a long lunch of what you made, with wine, coffee and limoncello and a certificate to take home.

Market walk, class and lunch are included at €125 per person, transport and tips are not. Children from eight.

In our comparison: #181 of 197 in Food Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
