Successful evening - We had a wonderful day together and everything was excellent, especially the ravioli and tagliatelle and the tiramisu were a lasting experience. Thank you for the good food and the great singing and for letting us get to know Italy and the beautiful wine in such a beautiful and warm way. Greetings from the Paulsen family from Hamburg 👋

Fantastic Cooking Lesson - We wanted to learn how to cook Italian food in Italy and this experience did not disappoint. Our host Maria invited us into her family home and patiently taught us how to make Tagliatelli, Ravioli and Tiramasu. She had also prepared some delicious appetisers so we left having eaten a lot! I would recommend this to anyone with an interest in food, you don't need to be a skilled chef just enthuastic.

Amazing experience with Marina, 100% recommend! - This was undoubtedly one of the best experiences we have ever had! Marina was amazing, she welcomed us into her home and provided wine (made in Lake Garda) and appetisers, delicious salami from Desenzano. Then we got to the cooking, we made tiramisu, ravioli and tagliatelle, Marina was so knowledgeable and we learned a lot! She also gave us the recipes, and different options such as sauces we could make, so we are going to try to make it at home too! We finished off with coffee and biscuits - again delicious, and Marina told us all about the Lake, her recommendations for things to do/places to eat! Marina and her son were so generous and gave us such an amazing experience that will be a lasting memory for us! If you are visiting Lake Garda I could not recommend the cooking class with Marina enough!
