5. Pricing for Our Cooking Classes in Rome
Our class prices change based on the season and demand, as well as the type of lesson being booked. If you are booking a private lesson, the prices are higher, typically covering the cost of an entire shared cooking class session. For example, if the price of a shared class is €50 and we usually have an average of 8 people per class, the price for a private session is calculated as €50 x 8, which amounts to €400, regardless of the actual number of attendees up to 8. For example, the cost per person would be €200 each for 2 people, €134 each for 3 people, €100 each for 4 people, etc., with the total always remaining the same up to a maximum of 8 people. This is just an example of the criteria we use to calculate the cost of a session. Additional charges may apply for requests that exceed standard offerings, such as the demand for high-cost ingredients like seafood, truffles, or expensive wines.
The prices shown on our site as 'starting from' refer to the off-season rates, which vary according to the demand for cooking classes. During the high season, prices are higher due to inflationary adjustments!
