Enter a real Neapolitan pizzeria and become a pizzaiolo for a day in this immersive, hands-on cooking experience in Naples. Your journey begins with the foundation of true Neapolitan pizza: transforming just four simple ingredients — water, flour, salt, and yeast — into perfectly elastic, traditional pizza dough.

Under the guidance of a master pizzaiolo, you will learn professional techniques including kneading, proofing, and the ancient “staglio” method to create perfect dough balls. Each participant has their own individual workstation, ensuring a fully interactive small-group experience from start to finish. Once your dough is ready, you’ll shape, fill, and seal your calzone using fresh local ingredients such as San Marzano tomatoes, smoked provola, sheep’s milk ricotta, Napoli salami, fresh basil, extra virgin olive oil DOP, and a touch of pepper.
Learn how to perfectly close your calzone to create the iconic golden “mezzaluna” before it’s baked in a traditional Neapolitan pizza oven. After baking, sit down in a warm and authentic setting to enjoy your handmade calzone paired with a glass of local wine or beer. But the experience doesn’t end there. Finish on a sweet note with crispy bites of fried pizza dough filled with the world’s most famous chocolate cream — a delicious example of Naples’ creative street food tradition. Throughout the class, your master pizzaiolo will share traditional techniques, insider secrets, and the philosophy of simplicity and quality that defines true Neapolitan pizza. A culinary experience full of flavor, culture, and fun — Buon appetito!
