About this tour
Learn to shape and bake authentic Italian bread and pizza from local cooks who've inherited centuries-old techniques passed through their families.

- Small-group setting with practising cooks

What to expect
You'll work directly with instructors at their cooking space, getting your hands into dough from the start. Expect to learn the logic behind resting times and temperature rather than follow rigid steps—each cook has slight variations refined over years. You'll shape at least one pizza and one loaf, watching how they transform in the heat. The final hour shifts to the table where you'll eat together, discussing what worked and why, with drinks included. Bring an apron or wear clothes you don't mind flouring.
