(about 17 miles) from Villa Campestri where all of the cooking courses will be conducted. If you are coming in through the rail network, your personal driver will pick you up at the Central Train Station in Florence. From Florence, you will have a chance to enjoy the picturesque scenery in one of the greenest places on earth.

In the evening of your first day, you will be joining your host and fellow travelers for dinner at Villa Campestri and savor first hand the legendary Italian hospitality.

Day two to day five of your Tuscany cooking holiday will start with a hearty traditional Tuscan breakfast after which a local chef, Chef Jeri, will be conducting four unique 2-hour Tuscan cooking classes. Cooking courses start at 10:00 a.m.

Your classes will offer you instruction in traditional Tuscan cooking which will include courses in

Pastas, Crepes and Sauces

Chief Jeri With Cooking Participants

Day six of your Tuscany cooking holiday starts with your private driver taking your group to Florence for a day tour. For a list of possible itinerary visit our Florence web page and find out what this fabulous city has to offer.

In the evening you will have dinner with the organizer, after which the driver returns the group to the villa. Prepare for this night, as this could be a very eventful and exciting evening.

The following morning, your driver who by this time is now your close friend, takes you to the train station or the airport. Keep those tear ducts open, as it is always difficult to leave nice memories and new-found friends behind.
