5.00Pickup was on time and easy to find. Communication was good. We wanted to be dropped off at Modena Station rather than returning to Parma, and half the group needed the same. It was no problem and well organised. The tour itself was delightful. All I hoped for. Matteo was easily understood & had a great sense of humour. He gave clear explanations of the food processes without any tedium. The businesses we attended were small, privately owned, or coops of a few farmers. It was all very artisanal. And wonderful for that. I can't imagine being able to organise a tour like this on my own.
Parmigiano -Reggiano, Parma ham and Balsamic at its highest level!

5.00They took us to wonderful local cheese, Parma ham, and balsamic places, showing us and explaining the processes and giving us ample opportunities to taste each product. Our guide was also great!
Delightful day of tastings

4.00It was a fun experience for our family to see how parmesan cheese is produced and the steps involved in making prosciutto. Plus the tasting of freshly made products was delicious. We also signed up for the balsamic tour and tasting in Modena. The driver had to drive back to Parma to drop off 2 people in our van at the train station. Then we went on to Modena. This made our trip about 30 minutes longer and the tour guide from the balsamic place was wondering what happened to us. This was the only negative of the day. The balsamic tour was great and educational plus she was very generous with all the tastings of balsamic vinegar.
Great day discovering local culinary delights

5.00A fabulous day out with Mattia as our guide. So good seeing parmigiana being made; the curing of Parma ham and production of balsamic at the oldest production place in the world in Modena. Lots of good information from a local who knows his town very well. Would highly recommend this tour
Excellent day in the countryside

5.00A great day in the countryside. Our guide Mattia was warm, welcoming, very knowledgeable and helpful. The tasting were excellent and we visited smaller producers and not large industrial producers.
