Long overdue review! We visited Tropea in July 2019 and booked in a Pasta Cooking Class for the middle of our trip and were not disappointed. The class size was us and another couple, and the atmosphere was great - Bettina was amazing! The instructions were very easy to follow and unlike some cooking classes, I felt we could actually have a go at re-creating it at home and get the same results. In fact, we tried when got back from our holiday and managed to make some great pasta!! The 2 sauces we made to complement our pastas were delicious and the lunch we shared at the end of the class was lovely. Bettina also recommended us some great restaurants in Tropea, which was really useful! I'm so glad we booked this class - it was excellent value for money and was the perfect addition to our trip.

This is a great winery-tour near Rome (40 min drive from the Aurelia district). If you’re not able to reach the winery with your own transportation, they offer a service for you. The winery is very authentic and beautiful, and the tourguide speaks English very clear. We got to see the grapyard and tasted 3 different wines. With each wine, you will have a small meal which allows you to taste te wine even better. After te tasting part, we got to see the winesellar. We bought a few bottles at this place to take home and surprise our relatives. A experience you won’t regret!
