Pasta Class in Florence or Day Tour from Florence

Hi,

My boyfriend and I are looking for a pasta making class in the Florence area. Any recommendations?

We have four days and nights booked in Florence. We are also looking for a day tour trip from Florence. We have seen a day tour from Florence to Siena to San Gimignano to Pisa. We want to know if anyone has any suggestions of what tour companies to go with or tour companies to avoid.

Thanks!

I’ve taken a couple of different cooking classes from Florence. One was with Florencetown - a group of about 15-20 people. Started by going to the market to buy ingredients and taste cheese, oil and Balsamica, then to the kitchen where we made ravioli, tagliatelle, rags and tiramisu. This was a pretty good class, but by far my favourite, and one that I’ve taken twice, is a wine tasting/cooking class with Accidental Tourist! Group size is 8. They pick you up at a meeting place, then drive out to the country to a small winery for a tour of the winery and tasting, then to an ancient house for the cooking class. While you make ravioli and tagliatelle a chef makes a couple other courses. Both are good, but the small group of AT, and the drive in the country makes it a really special experience!
