Secrets of Parmigiano Reggiano and Balsamic Vinegar

An Cultivated day in Reggio
An absolutely amazing and unforgettable experience with Claudio in Reggio Emilia! From visiting his beautiful agriturismo and working farm to seeing the cows and learning how authentic Parmigiano Reggiano is made, every part of the day was fascinating and special.The balsamic vinegar experience was equally incredible, and I loved learning about the traditional production process and the passion behind these iconic products.Claudio was an exceptional host—knowledgeable, warm, generous, and truly passionate about sharing his family, his farm, and the food traditions of Emilia-Romagna. This was so much more than a tour; it felt like being welcomed into a way of life.If you’re visiting the Emilia-Romagna region, I highly recommend spending a day with Claudio. A truly authentic Italian experience that I will remember for a long time!

Secrets of Parmigiano Reggiano and Balsamic Vinegar

Don’t visit Bologna without taking this tour!!!
Claudio was a wonderful guide from the onset of our booking! He wrote to us and asked that we contact him (he gave his WhatsApp number) before we made any train plans so he could make sure we’d arrive in a timely fashion. When the time came for making those reservations, I reached out to him and he promptly responded with incredibly detailed, helpful instructions. The day of the tour, our small group (only 8 people!) was treated to a behind-the-scenes tour of Claudio’s family’s Parmigiana farm/factory. We learned about and observed every step of the process, and when it was over, we enjoyed a delicious tasting of the three ages of cheese they create and sell. The fun continued after a short drive to another beautiful family location where they produce balsamic vinegar. I felt like I was in an enchanted place as Claudio deftly drew us in to the love and care and patience for the process. And after another tasting experience at this location, it did seem like something truly magical must occur to create such a delicious vinegar. We were given the opportunity after each of the tastings to purchase various items, but there was absolutely no pressure. Some members of our group did and some did not without any awkwardness or discomfort. After driving us back to the train station, we said our goodbyes to our small group (who now felt like friends) and to Claudio, one of the most passionate, interesting and kind tour guides we’ve ever known.

Our guide was a lovely young lady named Elena (sp?) who shared her knowledge and passion for the Modena Region in general and parmesana reggiano & Balsamic vinegar specifically with us. The aromas and flavors we experienced on these tours were delightfully delicious and her passion and personality made the experience even better!

A great self guided tour
This guide was amazing! The experiences at all the different locations was great. I wish I had read the text beforehand as you needed to book and pay an admission fee for some of the places. The tour took me around 2 hours but that was without going into the different paid experiences. The area was pretty quiet with minimal crowds, which made it easy to look around freely! The tour is best people that want to learn more about Modena and want to see all the best places without just wondering around! My husband went to the Ferrari museum so this tour was ideal for me to go a look around and it’s the tour took help me!

This was a great way to visit some local producers of regional specialties. Alessandro was a great guide and very friendly. First we toured the Parmesano Reggio factory, saw it being made, and tasted 3 ages. Then we visited a small balsamic producer and the owner did a guided tasting with us. Finally we went to a small family vineyard and did a wine tasting with the owner. It was the perfect way to immerse yourself in the region. Alessandro gave just a great recommendation for lunch afterward too.

Parmigiano Reggiano e Prosciutto di Parma con i professionali
Mattia is a guide from Parma with natural charisma and a light sense of humor, whose family knowledge of cheesemaking and crafting of Prosciutto di Parma serves his guests wonderfully. ParmaLook has a number of guides who are all assuredly skilled, but I feel glad to have gotten to spend the morning with Mattia, learning about and sampling the wonderful flavors of (authentic) Parmigiano Reggiano e Prosciutto di Parma and discussing travel, filmmaking, and all manner of other topics during our rides to and from the train station!

Parmigiano Reggiano & Aceto Balsamico tour with lunch
Brandon_H, Jun 2026
Amazing 10/10
This was our favorite package I purchased for my wedding honeymoon. We started with the Parmesan tour and tasting which was phenomenal. Followed up by going to Origine 1977 which was the balsamic tour. This tour was the highlight of our entire trip. Laura gave us a tour of her property which was truly spectacular. She showed us the grape vines in her backyard and took us upstairs to her attic where the barrels are sleeping. The smell is something I will never forget. She showed us the work that goes into true balsamic. Then she had us taste them all. Unbelievable. My favorite part was how kind Laura was. She brought out ice cream for us to try with the balsamic. She let us try as much as we wanted and just chatted with us. Truly taking the time to know us and inform us as much as possible. The tour concluded and we went to lunch which was also amazing. A true mom and pop spot. Overall for the price of this you’d be silly to pass it up.

Parmigiano Reggiano, Balsamic Vinegar and fresh pasta tour
Mara_F, May 2026
Absolutely wonderful!
This tour was absolutely perfect! My sister, mother and I loved the-group experience (it was just us 3!) Alice was wonderful - very educational, personable, and helpful. We loved the private tour of the cheese factory, from the start of production through a tasting at the end. Afterwards, Alice took us to a private balsamic production where the production was explained start to finish. The tasting was very informative and delicious. Then we had a private pasta making class! Our instructor was delightful, explaining all the techniques and styles of pasta. We made the dough, rolled it, cut it properly for the specific pasta type, and also filled tortelloni. They prepared the pasta with delicious sauces and provided wine with our meal. We couldn’t recommend this tour enough. It was a great length of time and was enjoyable throughout. Thank you Alice!!!
