Cava de Tirreni’s food-focused tours offer some of Italy’s most authentic market-to-table experiences. The best tours combine morning visits to the bustling open-air market with hands-on cooking lessons in family kitchens. Small-group market tours let you rub shoulders with locals while learning about regional specialties and seasonal ingredients. My favorite cooking experiences are the ones where grandmothers share generations-old pasta-making techniques and family recipes – you’ll make and enjoy a complete meal from antipasti to dessert. Tours run year-round, accommodate dietary restrictions, and include English instruction. Check out these standout food tours that showcase the real flavors of Cava de Tirreni.
