What to expect

Departing from Florence’s Piazzale Montelungo, embark on a culinary journey into Italy’s rich food traditions. Travel by air-conditioned coach with a knowledgeable tour leader, uncovering the craftsmanship behind Parmigiano Reggiano, balsamic vinegar, and prosciutto.

Your first stop is a local dairy, where you’ll witness the art of Parmigiano Reggiano production. Step into the ageing rooms, learn about the process, and taste this world-renowned cheese at different stages of maturity.

Next, visit an authentic balsamic vinegar producer, where generations of expertise transform grape must into rich, aged vinegar. Sample a variety of flavours, pair them with Parmigiano shavings, and experience a unique balsamic-infused gelato.

Continue to a prosciutto facility, where you’ll discover the delicate process behind Modena prosciutto, culatta, and salami. Enjoy a light lunch featuring cured meats, fresh tigelle bread, aged Parmigiano, and a glass of local Lambrusco wine.

In Bologna, your tour leader will provide a brief city introduction before you explore at your own pace. Stroll through Piazza Maggiore, discover charming streets, or sample local delicacies. After a day filled with authentic flavours, relax on your return journey to Florence.
