Fall In Tuscany

An excellent romantic way to combine the adventure of travel with the chance to learn and explore the delights of the table in an area known worldwide as "the land of food & wine". Enjoy seven days in the tranquil, rolling hills of Tuscany at a meticulously restored country inn, surrounded by olive trees and vineyards, only a ½ hour drive to Florence.

The cooking classes focus on Italian gastronomy, Tuscan style cooking and ingredients. Learn first-hand about the pleasures and benefits of the Mediterranean diet while participating in hand-on planning and preparation with Susanna Ravalli and Chef Bartolo, culinary expert and English speaking chef. Class courses are designed for enthusiastic amateurs, gourmets, and those who appreciate good food and wine. Relax and immerse yourself in the lifestyle and culture of the warm Italians, as you learn easy to prepare, signature dishes handed down through the Ravalli family for generations.
