Meet your host in central Naples and stroll to a nearby restaurant for your 1.5-hour pizza-making class. All utensils and equipment are provided for your session, and under the careful eye of your pizzaiolo (pizza maker), you’ll discover the culinary secrets behind making authentic Neapolitan pizza.

Naples has a refreshing keep-it-simple attitude when it comes to food, relying on the high quality of their local produce to make their dishes sing. Ruby red tomatoes, milky-fresh buffalo mozzarella, basil and DOP olive oils (Denominazione di Origine Protetta) are pizza restaurant staples, and you’ll use the best locally sourced ingredients such as these in your class.

Watch your pizzaiolo mix, knead and stretch the dough, then give it a go yourself! Neapolitan pizzas typically have doughier bases than their crispy Roman counterparts, and your pizzaiolo will explain how to get the dough worked to the right consistency. Choose from a selection of toppings, and then sit down while it bakes!

Relax with other food lovers in your group, chatting about pizza in Naples and enjoying a drink.
