A Mouthwatering Experience in the Prosecco Hills — Cook, Taste & Toast to La Dolce Vita
Escape the crowds of Venice and spend a day in the rolling Prosecco Hills — where fresh pasta, sparkling wine, and breathtaking landscapes blend into one unforgettable Italian experience. This 8-hour private tour combines food, culture, and nature in perfect harmony, taking you from Venice’s Piazzale Roma to the heart of the Veneto countryside for a hands-on Italian cooking class surrounded by vineyards.
🚗 Departure from Venice — Your Journey Begins
Your adventure starts at Piazzale Roma in Venice, where your private driver and guide will greet you with a smile. As you leave the lagoon behind, the scenery transforms — canals become winding country roads, and terracotta rooftops give way to vine-covered hills and charming villages nestled between valleys.
It’s a scenic drive through the Veneto countryside, leading you straight into the land where Prosecco DOCG is born — a place of harmony, tradition, and unforgettable flavor.
🍇 Discover the Prosecco Hills
Upon arrival at the welcoming agriturismo, you’ll be greeted with warmth and Italian hospitality. Before rolling up your sleeves for the cooking class, enjoy a relaxing walk through the vineyards along the Biodiversity Path — a gentle trail surrounded by nature, offering stunning views of the hills that have made this area world-famous.
Depending on the season, you might also take part in farm activities such as collecting eggs, picking vegetables, or learning about sustainable cultivation in the synergistic garden. It’s a truly immersive way to connect with Italy’s rural roots.
👩🍳 Meet the Chef & Start Your Cooking Class
Now it’s time to tie on your apron and dive into a hands-on culinary experience! Meet the local chef, who will introduce you to the secrets of traditional Venetian cuisine — focusing on simple, high-quality ingredients that let the flavors speak for themselves.
🥣 What You’ll Make
- Fresh pasta: Learn to craft two different kinds of pasta using a rolling pin and pasta machine.
 - Delicious sauces: Prepare two mouthwatering sauces to pair with your pasta creations, guided by your chef’s expert tips.
 
Along the way, you’ll also get to taste local cheeses and cured meats, savoring authentic flavors from the Veneto region.
🍷 Tasting & Lunch — A Celebration of Flavors
When your pasta is ready, it’s time to sit down and enjoy your creation in true Italian style. Your meal will be accompanied by Prosecco DOCG — one bottle shared between two guests — perfectly chilled and bursting with the crisp notes that define this world-renowned sparkling wine.
The menu also includes homemade bread, Prosecco grissini, and sweet Prosecco cookies to finish. To complete the experience, enjoy moka coffee and a sip of local grappa — the perfect Venetian digestivo.
🌿 Return to Venice — With a Heart (and Stomach) Full
After a day filled with laughter, cooking, and delicious food, your driver will bring you back to Venice, retracing the scenic roads through the Prosecco Hills.
