4.00There was just my husband & I on the tour, the tour was good & informative, but we would have liked a few more people to have joined us as we were the only ones eating as our host had already eaten, it felt a little odd! We enjoyed the tour & the food, but found it expensive for what we had. We paid extra for the drink package & had 3 glasses of wine. We have done many food tours in other cities & have noticed how expensive they are all getting, over £100 per head! I think we will just do our own tour next time.

5.00Our guide Darren was so fun and full of knowledge on Balsamic Vinegar and on Modena. If we could have kept his service all day, that would have been fantastic but only a 2.5 hour tour. LOVE IT!
Fun day in Modena!

5.00We had a wonderful Modena Food Tour with Eugenio! We started with a balsamic vinegar tasting followed by a visit to the central market. The market was spectacular and vibrant and the meat and cheese selection delicious. Next was a pasta tasting and the one of the best gelatos we had on an 18 day trip to Italy. We would definitely recommend this food tour to others in the quaint town of Modena, a quick day trip from a lot of cities in Italy.
Grazie e mangia

5.00This was an outstanding and probably our favorite food experience in Italy. Eugenio was an amazing guide both with his knowledge and selection of foods for us to sample as well as his curiosity about us and our interest in food.. Modena is a lovely city with delicious food!!
