What will we make and eat on this Rome cooking class for families?

Everyone makes their own personal Roman pizza from the dough up, choosing their own toppings, then bakes it in a real oven and eats it at a sit-down family lunch. Adults get a glass of prosecco with the meal.

What ages is it good for?

All of them. It's designed so kids and adults alike get hands-on, with each person shaping their own pizza, which makes it one of the best food activities in Rome for kids. Children's and infant tickets are available.

Yes. The pizza everyone makes is your lunch, so come hungry; it's a relaxed family meal, not a snack.

A glass of prosecco is included for the adults, and there are soft drinks for kids and non-drinkers.

How long is the class?

About 1.5 hours, starting at midday, from rolling the dough to sitting down to eat together.

Can you accommodate dietary needs?

Tell us about any dietary requirements or allergies when you book and we'll do our best. Because everyone tops their own pizza, vegetarian is easy; gluten-free and other needs depend on the kitchen, so we'll confirm what's possible for your date.

What to expect

Meet your Roman chefs

You'll step into a welcoming kitchen in the heart of Trastevere, where the aprons are out and the ingredients are ready. A local chef who knows Roman pizza inside out greets your family and walks everyone through the steps. By the end, your little one has earned the title of minipizzaiolo, "little pizza maker" in Italian.

Make your own pizza

This isn't a demonstration: everyone gets their own dough to stretch and shape into their own pie. With a rainbow of toppings in front of you, the rules go out the window, heart-shaped crusts, extra mozzarella, whatever the kids dream up. Your chef shares the tips that give Roman pizza its light, crisp crust along the way.

"The kids take it so seriously. They stretch the dough with their tongue out in concentration, then can't stop grinning when their own pizza comes out of the oven."

Rob,

WalksDevour Rome chef

"I built this after making pizza with my own daughter. That afternoon was pure joy, and I wanted families visiting Rome to have the same thing."
