You will eat and drink your way through the secrets to great Italian cooking. My husband and I took the class as a suggestion from our travel agent, and did not know that Chiara and Mamma Agata, who run the class, would become our favorite part of our vacation to the Amalfi Coast and Capri. At first I took a... more

What a delightful experience we had. I had decided I wanted to learn some authentic Southern Italian cooking as my grandmother had cooked for me when I was a little girl. I did some research and came up with Mamma Agata in Ravello which is 23 miles from Positano where we were staying. So me, my daughter (20 yrs old)... more

Wow. I've been to several cooking classes over the years, but none compare to a day with Mamma Agata and Chiara. This was by far a highlight of a 3 week Italian vacation. Visiting with the other guests and munching on Mamma's famous lemon cake is a wonderful way to begin the day, the beginning of new friendships, great views,... more

A Cooking Class may not sound like the most fun thing to do while on vacation, but then, you've probably never visited Mamma's, in Ravello. Yes, of course you'll learn some of Mamma's famous recipes and how to prepare them (who would have thought I'd actually like eggplant parmiaganna?), and you'll eat well. But the day will pass so quickly... more

My husband and I spent one week at La Caravella Apartments in Positano Italy. We flew into Rome and then took the train to Naples. From there we hopped in a taxi to the port so we were able to go by boat along the Amalfi Coast to Positano. It is truly breathtaking. Positano is a delightful little place tucked... more

We stumbled upon Mama Agatas while searching for a unique wedding venue in Italy. We were on a semi-tight budget, but wanted to have a destination wedding with about 10 guests. The main reason we looked further into Mamma Agatas was the reviews we read on Trip Advisor. Booking with Mamma Agata turned out to be the absolute best decision... more

What a great experience! My wife and I visited with Mamma Agata and her daughter Chiara in May of 2008. My wife actually attended the class while I remained on their beautiful patio overlooking the Amalfi coast. Being a cook, by no means, I had decided not to join my wife for the class but to join her for the... more

Life presents many events that are memorable for a while. Many. Our six hours with Mamma and her daughter Chiara created memories that I believe will never fade. An unbelievable cooking class held in the instructors own home high on a cliff over-looking the Bay of Salerno. The time we spent there was the most memorable of our entire ten... more

We were visiting the Amalfi cost area and were looking for unique way to celebrate the birthday of my wife. We are a family of five. Mamma Agata was the perfect choice. It started with a very warm welcome (Our kids felt at home from the first minute) and continued through a personalized cooking session (tuned for kids). The place... more
