TAVOLISSIMA: A WEEK AT OUR TABLE

Book Your Place in our Piccolo Italian Cooking Tours in Puglia

Traditionally Tavolissima offers a week-long cooking school immersion in the heart of Puglia, welcoming guests from around the world to experience authentic Italian food, culture and connection. This October, for the first time and as a special one-off opportunity, we're opening two exclusive Piccolo Tours designed for travellers who dream of joining us but have limited time in Italy.

With a small number of places available on our October 26 tour, guests can now choose a curated 3-night, 2-day culinary escape, either Saturday to Tuesday or Wednesday to Saturday, enjoying hands-on cooking classes, unforgettable local flavours, and the warm hospitality of Southern Italy.

If you've always wanted to experience life at an Italian cooking school but couldn't commit to a full week, this is your chance to discover the magic of Puglia in a shorter, intimate format.

Book Your Place in our weekly Italian Cooking Tours in Puglia

Book your place on our intimate 1-week Italian cooking tour in Puglia, southern Italy, and experience food, culture and la dolce vita the local way. Hosted by our warm, English-speaking cook Nino and wife Jo, these small-group cooking holidays are designed for travellers who want to slow down, connect and truly taste Italy.

Wander through vibrant local markets, meet passionate producers, and select the freshest seasonal ingredients before heading into the kitchen to learn how to prepare classic Italian favourites. From handmade pasta to traditional Puglian dishes, you’ll cook, eat and learn together in a relaxed, hands-on environment.

Afternoons are yours to enjoy — take a seaside swim, explore nearby villages, or indulge in an Italian afternoon siesta. As the sun sets, gather poolside for aperitivo before sitting down to enjoy the meal you’ve prepared, shared with new friends over flowing glasses of Italian wine.

Our Puglia cooking tours are about more than recipes — they’re about connection, simplicity and indulgence, Italian style. With limited places available, each tour offers a truly personal and immersive experience.

Reserve your spot today and join us for a week of cooking, culture and unforgettable moments in southern Italy.
