WHY CHOOSE ACCIDENTAL TOURIST?
- In the spring of 1998, ours was the first pasta class in Florence – that’s 23 years experience!
- We open our own historical home to you: a 900 year old villa in our family for 6 generations
- Max 8 people in each group, so we can give you all the attention you deserve
- While social distancing is required:
- to enjoy a spontaneous familiar environment in all safety, we run private classes at no extra cost.
- Custom classes for families traveling with children
- The ingredients we use in our class are 100% organic, no GMO, farm-to-table
- Over the years, we have researched and developed our own secret low-gluten pasta recipe
- For every meal we serve, we provide one for a homeless person. That’s ONE to ONE.
- We are working towards a plastic-free experience: bee-wax cloth and homemade detergents, so far. Looking for more ideas..
- Last but not least, unlimited local headache-free Chianti wine for our guests!
- And if you’d like to stay after cooking, eating and drinking, you can book a night at the villa

Our history before the Accidental Tourist:
Our main home has been in our family for 6 generations: Michelangelo, Galileo, Rodolfo, Giovanni, Majla, Eva and Giotto. It is a watchtower built is 1146, and later became an orphanage, then a farmhouse. During WWII, total strangers found shelter and many lives were saved in this family villa.
As heirs of this abode, we want to honor its vocation:
to Treat Strangers as Guests, to Turn Guests into Friends
