During a seven-day trip to Italy, my husband and I participated in the three-day cooking course at Torre del Tartufo. We both agreed that it was the best part of our trip. The staff was so accommodating and professional. The grounds and rooms were comfortable and beautiful. We enjoyed the excursions planned by the staff. And then there was the... More

We did the three-day cooking course and our only regret is that we didn't do the full week. The drive up the mountain road was definitely adventurous, but sometimes paradise is a little difficult to get to... and paradise it is! The facility and our room in itself would have been enough to make the perfect vacation spot, but then... More

My daughter and I love to cook together and have always wanted to come to a cooking school in Tuscany. My daughter travels every week for business and has a very stressful job. She needed to get away and we could not have picked a more perfect place for us both! Torre del Tartufo is magnificent, every view more gorgeous... More

I cannot recommend this experience enough - it was absolutely BEYOND anything I'd even imagined. As a solo traveler, I was a little nervous, but the group was perfect, the classes were fantastic, the staff were amazing, the setting idyllic... This was my first trip to Italy, and Tuscookany was the most relaxing way to enjoy it. If I had... More

If you are even thinking about a cooking vacation at Torre del Tartufo in Tuscany, all I can say is DO IT! I spent a week at the villa and cooking school in early September and it was beyond my expectations!! When you arrive at the villa, it will take your breath away. It is truly the most beautiful place... More

Searching black truffles with a hunter and his dog, and with success.... More

My 60th birthday present from my husband was a 3 day cooking course with Tuscookany and what a wonderful present it was! We stayed at the charming, picturesque Torre del Tartufo, high in the hills of Tuscany. My husband came along, and though he did not cook, he joined us for all the scrumptious meals, superb wines, and relaxing atmosphere.... More
