About this tour

Feel the sea breeze as you learn two beloved Italian kitchen traditions at a cooking class overlooking the tourist marina. In a small group of no more than 10, shape semolina cavatelli by hand, one piece at a time, then crush fresh basil in a traditional marble mortar to make pesto. Sip a chilled glass of local wine as you cook, with the water just beyond the table. After the hands-on session, sit down to lunch and take in the coastal setting. This 120-minute class offers a relaxed way to connect with Italian food traditions and enjoy a memorable meal by the sea. To find the meeting point, enter the marina and look for berth number 879. Come ready to roll, grind, taste, and savor a scenic cooking experience.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
