    Experience was beautiful and the host was funny, lovely and inviting. Would recommend 110%, what a fantastic evening

    If you're in Milan, you absolutely have to make time to take this class! We met Bruna, our host, at her apartment complex and immediately felt welcomed into her beautiful home. She taught us so much about Italian cuisine & culture, and we loved hearing her personal stories and chatting with her as we cooked our meal. She guided us through making various types of pasta/sauces and tiramisu -- she knew our names, was patient with us, and offered to keep in touch if we wanted more recipes! We had the best time and couldn't be more thankful to Bruna for the cultural experience she gifted us. Best 3 hours ever!

    Don’t miss this experience- Not only does it give you a break from the hotels, but you get to see a beautiful apartment. The food was so fun to make all the little tidbits were entertaining.

    We were looking for something to really give us the experience of living in Italy and this was it! Seeing an apartment (instead of a hotel room) and how food we eat all the times is prepared from scratch is something I will remember forever! Our host was engaging and told us so many interesting things I will never forget. I can’t wait to go home and make the great food. One thing- if it’s during the day and it seems the host isn’t answering your buzz, check for a doorman

    We showed up after coming across the city and got buzzed in but no one answered the door. We called the number to speak to the tour organizer and the person said he wasn’t aware there was anyone signed up for the activity. We were very disappointed as it was our last night in Milan and we were celebrating a birthday.

    Well worth taking the time out of our stay to do this. The host was lovely. It was a comfortable relaxed environment and very enjoyable.

    We loved being involved in the whole process of making pasta and Bruna was a fantastic guide through it. She taught us both traditional and modern techniques of making a few different pasta types and a tirimisu. Her English was great and we also loved learning fun history stories from her. Thank you, would highly recommend!

    My husband booked the Milan: Traditional Homemade Pasta Cooking Experience tour on a Monday morning as a last gift from Milan for our holiday. He received confirmation from Viator that we were successfully booked, and he planned our day around our class. After an hour walk from the Duomo to the tour destination, we arrived a few minutes early.

    The “host” mildly reprimanded us for arriving at early, she explained that she had to pay her staff the extra 10 minutes for us to be there and it “was not good for her”, she also told us being there was inconvenient by interrupting her last minute preparations. We were then unceremoniously asked to wait in a cramped cooking/dining area where 12 spots were set up for the class.

    At precisely 6:00pm she handed everyone a glass of prosecco, she made some inquiries as to where everyone arrived from and she began explaining what was on the table. At that moment another couple arrived, and there was confusion in the room. The host asked our group “is everyone here from Airbnb”, I have 12 people from Airbnb?”. We said no we arranged through Viator. She said, “this is not ok, you cannot stay here, I have 12 reservations from Airbnb, you will have to leave”. She went on to say this was a Viator problem not hers, she said this problem had happened before, it was not her fault, “but we had to go from her home”.

    Can you imagine our embarrassment? Can you imagine how mortifying it was for us to hand back our glasses, get our coats and walk out after such an exchange? We arrived back at our hotel an hour after this terrible exchange to find an unacceptable email sent to us 30 minutes after the class was set to start…. “sorry guys just saw your booking which was really too short notice for today . can you reschedule please ? or you want me to cancel ? thx”.

    This error was not a simple mix up at some random location. We were made to feel embarrassed and asked to leave someone’s home. The so called "host" was not friendly, nor welcoming and the unprofessional email we received from some unnamed person at Viator was completely insufficient in making reparation for our experience.

    We did get an electronic refund notification from Viator, but I dont believe they will address the issue with the instructor or their customer service team. Our tour of Milan and bus trip to Switzerland were both wonderful, it is unfortunate that the Traditional Homemade Pasta Cooking Experience was a such a failure.
