What To Expect

1

Meet our guide in Parma and head on to visit an authentic producer of Parmigiano-Reggiano PDO: you’ll discover how the King of all cheeses has been literally made by hand in the same way since the Benedictine monks invented it 10 centuries ago! From the curdling into the typical copper heaters to the salting and the final ageing in the so-called wheel cathedrals, you will be a privileged witness of almost all the steps of production of this out-and-out food icon. Tasting at the end.

1 hour • Admission Included
2

Salumificio Conti

Guided visit with final tasting at one of the local family-run ham factories producing the mythical Prosciutto di Parma PDO: you will get to know why the best ham can only be made in the hills of Parma, where the marino wind blows from the Ligurian Sea through the river valley.

    Wonderful experience on this private tour of the production of the main food products of Parma (prosciutto, parmigiana, and balsamic). The lunch was fabulous with great food served in a very scenic castle. Our guide (Federico) was excellent and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend this tour.

    Booked this tour for clients and they loved the experience -- particular the cheese and prosciutto tours. Tour guide and driver were both excellent and knowledgeable. They really enjoyed lunch too. A few call outs -- it would be helpful to include recommended attire in the activity details. Clients wore sandals but closed toe shoes would be much more appropriate for this tour. They also selected the pickup from Bologna, but the driver didn't have water and the drive was around an hour and a half -- so that would've been nice to be able to prepare for. Lastly, they did feel a bit rushed at the balsamic factor, and felt there was an opportunity for that to be a bit more leisurely and detailed. Like I said, overall they really loved this day and rated it five stars -- just a few call outs for potential improvement in the future!

  • One of the most memorable highlights of our trip to Tuscany

    This tour was one of the most memorable highlights of our trip to Tuscany. Our guide was waiting for us when we arrived early at the meeting point. This allowed us to experience the full end-to-end process. We were not rushed and our questions were answered beyond our expectations. We now know everything behind the foods we love so much.
