Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Fresh pasta

Immerse yourself in the authentic Messina with this eco-friendly walking tour!

We’ll meet at the Sant’Orsola Municipal Market, where we’ll spend an hour exploring the stalls filled with local products, vibrant colors, and rich aromas — a truly immersive experience in daily Sicilian life. After our walk, we’ll head to my home by car to begin our traditional two-hour cooking class. Together, we’ll prepare fresh pasta — a cornerstone of Italian cuisine — and I’ll guide you step by step through the process. We’ll dress it with a delicious seasonal sauce and enjoy it with a glass of local wine, sharing a special moment around the table. I can’t wait to spend a morning with you between the market and homemade pasta!

We booked this experience to have a local taste of Messina and it exceeded our expectations! Rosella and Giuseppe were so sweet and offered us transportation from to the market and their house round trip for only 20 euros. It was a pretty quick drive, the market was nice and authentic and their house was so beautiful and a perfect ambiance for the cooking class! We all got along very well, them being very personable and we had such a nice dinner with them and they even gave us cannolis for dessert which were delicious! 10/10 would recommend, we made new friends, saw how to make Italian style pasta, and had a great time. Thank you Rosella and Giuseppe for your hospitality and kindness!

We had the most wonderful time, in fact probably the best excursion of our 10 day trip. Rossella and her family welcomed us into her home and treated us like royalty. She went over the top to insure we had a great time, including making us the most delicious fresh cannoli. Do not hesitate to book this class.
