About this tour
A 2.5-hour pasta-making class in Barcelona where you'll hand-craft fresh Italian pasta from scratch, then eat it on a rooftop terrace overlooking the city. You'll learn foundational techniques for working with dough and shaping pasta, finishing with an Italian aperitivo spread and the meal you've made, paired with wine or soft drinks. Suits anyone curious about cooking fundamentals and wanting to taste what proper fresh pasta actually tastes like — no kitchen experience needed.
Highlights
- Hand-make pasta dough and shape it into fresh sheets and cuts
- Cook and eat your own pasta on a rooftop terrace with Barcelona views
- Italian aperitivo spread included with wine and non-alcoholic drinks
- Rooftop setting in a vibrant, creative space
- Lunch and dinner components in one session
- Small interactive class format, not a lecture
What to expect
You'll arrive at the rooftop venue and move straight into the pasta workshop. An instructor will walk you through mixing and kneading dough, then show you how to roll, cut and shape it into finished pasta. The hands-on part takes up the bulk of the session — you'll be at the table working with your own dough and learning the core techniques.
Once your pasta is ready, it goes into the pot. While it cooks, you'll set up on the terrace with the aperitivo spread, wines, and soft drinks. You'll sit down to eat what you've made, taking in the Barcelona skyline. The experience wraps with you finishing your meal and winding down on the terrace.

Good to know
This suits anyone who wants a hands-on food experience without pretension — no culinary background required. It's also a good fit if you enjoy learning a repeatable skill you can take home. Fair warning: it's an active, participatory class, so you'll be on your feet for stretches and working with your hands; this isn't a demonstration you watch from a seat. The rooftop is open-air, so weather matters. Children and infants are welcome (strollers accommodated), though anyone under 18 won't be served alcoholic drinks. Service animals are allowed. The venue is accessible by public transport. Inclusions cover all food, drinks and instruction; no hidden costs flagged.
