    A lucky private experience- delicious and educational

    We booked ‘The art of Parmigiano Reggiano and real Balsamic vinegar’ in Modena and it was a highlight of our trip. Although we booked a standard ticket and provided our own transportation, we lucked out and were the only ones on the tour! The experience was the perfect mix of history and flavor. Standing in the "library" of Parmesan wheels was breathtaking, and the room of aging balsamic casks smelled incredible. Our guide was personable and knowledgeable, helping us finally understand the real difference between IGP and DOP products. Good to know: •⁠ ⁠Shopping: Make sure you have room in your luggage! You will definitely want to bring purchases back home.

    Laura was an amazing guide who gave us such a comprehensive and entertaining tour. Barbara and Elena were so kind even using their own cars to transport us when we couldn't find a ride back to the airport due to a big conference in Bologna. The best and most fulfilling tour of our trip!

    Spannende Tour

    Stefan_S, May 2024
    Interessante Tour im privaten Rahmen. Laura vermittelte leicht verständlich viel Wissen über die Produktion von Parmigiano Reggiano und die traditionelle Herstellung von Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena und ging auch detailliert auf Fragen ein. Neben den Erklärungen und der Besichtigung konnten die hochwertigen Produkte vor Ort verkostet werden.

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the private tour and found Laura’s explanations clear and informative. It’s great to hear that she took the time to answer your questions in detail. We’re also happy you enjoyed tasting the high-quality products on site. We hope to welcome you again soon for another memorable experience!
