Wonderful authentic experience

Mattea was an excellent host, he was so passionate and authentic, obviously this is close to his heart having been brought up in a family of cheese makers.

Exceptional tour and guide

Our guide Michele was wonderful, personable and made the tour truly special. We felt like we were spending time with a family member or someone we have known a very long time. All the food was beyond expectations and all the detailed information provided to us made it all a truly wonderful experience. My husband and I are so glad we did this tour and completely recommend this to anyone upon their visit to Parma.

Parmigiano Cheese, Parma Ham and Balsamic

Richard_W, Sep 2026

Excellent cheese, ham and Balsamic tour.

Great tour to visit parmigiano cheese, Parma ham and Balsamic production sites. The tour gave a great insight into the processes and was brilliantly described by our guide Mattia. The tastings were generous as was the time given to each visit. The only downside is my standards for excellence has gone up several notches!

From Parma: Parmigiano Reggiano Farm Tour & Tasting with Transfer

Sabrina_R, Sep 2026

Exceptional from Beginning to End

Exceptional from Beginning to End This tour was absolutely exceptional. Mattia was a fantastic guide, funny, engaging and incredibly knowledgeable. Having previously worked inside the factory making Parmigiano Reggiano himself, he could explain every part of the process from genuine firsthand experience. We followed the entire journey of the cheese, from the first stages of production through brining and into the extraordinary ageing room, where we saw wheels ranging from newly produced Parmigiano to varieties aged for as long as 100 months. Mattia made everything fascinating and entertaining for both me and my daughter, who is seven. The tour finished with a wonderful tasting in the garden. We sampled a younger Parmigiano alongside Parmigiano aged for 30 months, accompanied by crackers and local sparkling red wine. Being able to compare the two ages made it easy to understand how dramatically the flavor and texture develop over time. Fabio, our driver, was also excellent, extremely professional, friendly and accommodating. He went the extra mile to make our return especially convenient, which we truly appreciated. A beautifully organized, informative and memorable experience. I would highly recommend this tour to adults and families alike.

Wonderful authentic experience.

I highly recommend traveling out in the country to experience this cooking class. Beautiful ride through the countryside. Virginia and Nadia are wonderful hosts. Virginia speaks English and was very gracious! We made ravioli and tagliatelle. They treated us to a wonderful appetizer of fresh prosciutto and Parmesan cheese with homemade bread. Sangiovese was superb! Then we ate our ravioli and tagliatelle and finished with a wonderful tiramisu ice cream dessert. I highly recommend!

Matthew_G, Jun 2026

We did this tour as a...

We did this tour as a family this afternoon and we all had an amazing time, personally my favorite thing we have done on our trip to Italy so far. Loris (I hope I’m spelling the name right) was an exceptional guide, it was so much fun viewing the entire process of the cheese making. It was very informative, interesting and fun. We did it with our two children who had an amazing time. I would absolutely recommend going out of your way to make this tour, and would recommend it for any age group. We capped it off with buying a bunch of Parmesan from the shop which we will share with family and friends along with the photos from the tour. Cannot recommend enough, absolutely worth the trip!
