It is very important for people to know that this activity is only good for those who are staying in Bellagio. If you are staying anywhere else on Lake Como, the last ferry is at 7:30. The cooking class is not done until 8 pm and then you eat for two hours. If you are not staying on Bellagio you have no way to get back to your hotell. I was very excited for this excursion, but it had to be canceled. I did receive excellent customer service from Viator.

Fantastic experience and fantastic chef. The villa where the class took place was amazing. The views of the mountains were incredible. We met people from Canada that made it even better so much fun. Loved it all !

The view is breathtaking. Chef Maximo did a wonderful job teaching my wife and I how to make pasta and tiramisu. Every staff member we interacted with was so nice and accommodating. I would encourage anyone considering this option to book without hesitation.

From start to finish this was a fabulous experience. From a personalized pick up, to friendly staff, to breathtaking views, the class would have been amazing on its own. But the food and Chef Alessandro took the experience to the next level. The food was DELICIOUS and Chef made the experience so fun and inviting. Especially for non chefs like us! Eating the meal at the end was the highlight. The tiramisu was the best we've had! Will definitely recommend to any friends coming to Como.

My sister & I were conveniently picked up near where we stayed in Bellagio & driven to the best view we’d seen yet of Lake Como.. absolutely gorgeous!! The charming Chef Alessandro immediately came out and welcomed us & later 4 others arrived. We then went into the cool open air kitchen & began the fun hands-on experience of making gnocchi, tagliatelle & tiramisu. Alessandro was excellent in engaging everyone to experience every step & explaining it all! The food was delicious.. and lovely eating it outside together with the new friends we met & the incredible view!! Wonderful evening we hated it to end but exactly at 9pm we were told our ride was waiting and we were driven back to our street in Bellagio having had an exceptional experience & even getting to take home our aprons & recipes to remember it by. Thanks for the fabulous evening!

Was really enjoyable and in an Amazing spot overlooking the lake . The only negative was that we didn’t learn how to make pasta from scratch. It was all prepared earlier.
