We met up with Lorenzo at the meeting point, he showed us round the Rialto market. Then he took us back to his place where we had the most amazing few hours. We prepared and cooked wonderful pasta and sauce along with a tiramisu. It was brilliant from start to finish. Thank you Lorenzo

We had a wonderful time cooking risotto and homemade pasta with Lorenzo. I would highly recommend this activity if you wish to visit the Rialto market and cook fresh food. If there's something you really want to learn to cook this is a great opportunity. Be sure to check the Rialto market schedule to be sure you don't miss out.

Highly recommend taking this tour! Lorenzo was a fantastic guide, we toured the market, picked what we wanted for lunch and then he taught us how to make pasta. You can choose whatever you would like to make for lunch! We made seafood tagliatelle, stuffed scallops and tiramisu- all washed down with beautiful local wine! A highlight of our trip!
