If you’ve landed on this page, it’s not by chance. As Master Oogway says in Kung Fu Panda, “there are no accidents.” If you’re planning to visit the Cinque Terre, you probably already know that pesto is the iconic Ligurian sauce, famous all over the world. It’s known for its fresh, vibrant, and aromatic flavor, where the delicate sweetness of fresh basil blends with the richness of extra-virgin olive oil, the salty depth of Parmigiano Reggiano and Pecorino cheese, and more… Did we make your mouth water already? Then write down this name: Nessun Dorma Pesto Experience in Cinque Terre.

Simone, the owner, created a truly unique pesto experience on his famous terrace overlooking the iconic view of Manarola. But the ingredients for such a fun experience are not only the ones used to prepare the pesto (those secrets are for Simone and his team to share with you!). Simone decided to personalize his pesto class Cinque Terre by making it relaxed, informal, full of music, joy, and the incredible freshness of the products used. Everyone knows pesto is made with basil, but what many people don’t know is that in Liguria, the real basil is considered to be the one grown in Genoa, in an area called Prà. That’s exactly the basil Simone chose for his pesto experience so you can taste the most authentic flavor possible. The Nessun Dorma pesto class is very simple and incredibly enjoyable: you will be guided to your table, where you’ll find everything you need — mortar, pestle, apron, and the (secret!) ingredients for preparing pesto. Simone will guide you step by step with his warm personality and contagious smile. The atmosphere is truly familiar and welcoming!

Why should you book a pesto experience Cinque Terre?

If you’re traveling with your kids, for example, sharing a cooking class together is one of the best gifts you can give them — especially in Italy, a country where food is one of the most beloved and celebrated cultural traditions in the world. They’ll remember it forever and thank you for introducing them to such a delicious dish! A pesto class is also a wonderful idea for celebrating an anniversary, a birthday, or even a marriage proposal in the Cinque Terre. And if you’re simply curious or you love cooking, it’s absolutely a must-do experience during your stay. The family-run spirit of this activity will make you feel completely at home. It’s also a beautiful way to learn something new about Ligurian culture. At the end of the lesson, you’ll know all the secrets of the recipe and you’ll be able to prepare authentic pesto back home, sharing it with friends and family — a delicious memory from your Cinque Terre vacation.
