Ten cooking classes in Bari, Polignano a Mare and the Lecce area cost €58 to €99 per person at list price and last 2 to 3.5 hours. In the parts read, only one of the ten pages states a group size as a number: the Bari home class, limited to 8 participants.
On this page
All ten promise free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start on the booking site. One operator’s own site allows cancellation up to 6 hours before the start for the same class, so the channel matters.
Every figure on this page was read on 9 November 2026 from the booking pages of the classes and from two operators’ own sites. Where a page does not state a figure, this page says so instead of guessing.

Which Class Fits Which Traveler
These are readings of the table, not a ranking.
- If you want the largest review base, look at the Bari pasta and tiramisu class (956 reviews) and the Lecce courtyard class (530).
- If you want a full meal in the price, the Lecce courtyard class lists dinner and a dessert at €58, the lowest list price of the ten. The Bari home class lists a 3-course meal at €99.
- If you have only two hours, four classes take 2 hours: the Bari focaccia and orecchiette class (€59), the Polignano pasta class and masterclass (€65) and the Lecce orecchiette class (€68).
- If you want a stated group limit, only the Bari home class gives one (8 participants). It has two reviews, so you have little evidence about it.
- If you eat no meat, the Polignano pasta class says it is suitable for vegans and vegetarians. The Bari pasta and tiramisu class and the Bari focaccia and orecchiette class offer vegetarian options on request, and the Bari pasta and tiramisu class is not suitable for vegans.
- If you have gluten or lactose intolerance, the Bari pasta and tiramisu class and the Lecce handmade pasta class say they are not suitable, and the Bari focaccia and orecchiette class has no gluten-free option. For the other classes the page says nothing, so ask the operator before you book.
- If you want a longer, home-based class, the Corigliano d’Otranto class lasts 3.5 hours and is held in a family home, at €89 with a 5.0 rating from 58 reviews.
What the Booking Pages Do Not Tell You
Group size. Eight of the ten pages give no group size, one gives a limit and one says “small group” with no number. A review of the Lecce orecchiette class mentions a group of 9, which is a traveler’s count, not a limit.
Cancellation. The booking site’s rule is the same for all ten: a full refund up to 24 hours before the start. The operator of the Bari pasta and tiramisu class allows a full refund up to 6 hours before the start on its own site.
Price by channel. The same Bari pasta and tiramisu class is listed from €69 on the operator’s own site and at a €78 list price, with a €55 offer, on the booking site. A Polignano orecchiette class on Pugliamare’s own site starts at €35 per person and needs at least 2 participants. This page does not treat it as the same product as the two Pugliamare classes in the table, which list €65.
The Bari home class listing. The class is listed under Bari with a Bari meeting point, but its “includes” list mentions a pickup under the arch of Porta Napoli in Lecce. Confirm the meeting point with the operator.
What Is Not Confirmed Yet
- The group size of eight of the ten classes.
- Prices and cancellation terms on the operators’ own sites, apart from two operators.
- Classes in Ostuni, Alberobello, Monopoli, Locorotondo and Matera.
- Two further Bari classes and one Polignano class that were not read.
