Amazing your guides! They make sure you are properly trained on the Vespa before taking to the road. The scenery is beautiful and so is the winery!

Der Kochkurs mit Fabrizio hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Er hat uns viel über die verschiedenen Zutaten erzählt und einige Tipps gegeben, wie wir super leckere Pizza und leckeres Gelato herstellen können. Lediglich die Pizza hätte etwas größer sein können. Unsere Gruppe bestand aus 8 Leuten und es herrschte eine super nette und angenehme Atmosphäre. Wir können es nur jedem empfehlen!!
