Neapolitan pizza-making class: learn the craft, live the tradition
In Naples, pizza isn’t just taught—it’s passed down.
Taking a Neapolitan pizza-making class with a master pizzaiolo means stepping, even just for a few hours, into a living tradition made of precise gestures, slow rhythms, and deep respect for ingredients.
This hands-on experience is now open to visitors who want to truly understand what makes Neapolitan pizza unique. It’s not just about following a recipe—it’s about understanding a method.
The pizzaiolo shares the history of pizza, explains the importance of long fermentation, and shows how to feel the perfect dough texture. Every move has meaning; every step is the result of centuries of tradition.
Designed to be inclusive and accessible even for beginners, the class is not about perfect results, but about real contact with an artisanal craft that belongs to the soul of Naples.
Tasting the pizza you’ve made with your own hands is the final, unforgettable moment—when learning becomes memory. Not just a flavor, but the feeling of having lived Naples through one of its most iconic languages.
The class blends culture, hands-on practice, and conviviality—telling Naples from the point of view of those who keep it alive every day in front of a wood-fired oven.
Classes usually take place in artisan kitchens, often located in the city’s historic neighborhoods or central areas, where pizza culture is everyday life. Guided by expert pizzaioli, you'll learn the key steps: mixing dough, hand-shaping, selecting the right ingredients, and mastering the bake.
