Cooking Classes in Sicily

Learn to cook and eat like a true Sicilian with this hands-on pizza cooking class in central Taormina. Stroll through Piazza IX Aprile on the way to a well-equipped chef's kitchen housed in a medieval stone villa. Learn about the history of pizza from a professional chef, then mix and toss dough and pile on savory sauce and toppings for an authentic Sicilian dish.

This soap and olive experience offers an alternate to winery visits and a chance to learn about the often surprising global history of soap. Take a guided tour of the soap museum - housed in a restored 19th-century building surrounded by olive trees - and learn about eons-old soap-making processes. Then, make your own soap bar and finish with a tasting of local olive oil.
