Tour of Guffanti Cheese Cave - This is a great tour of the cheese cave that Guffanti has. Our tour guide, Martina, was very knowledgeable of the various cheeses and their origin. She was very pleasant to be with and took the time to answer our many questions. The cheese tasting was phenomenal with a great array of different cheeses and a glass of wine. This is a great value for the cost as you learn so much about the making of cheese, where it comes from, and how it all got started. Martina was a great tour guide.

Fabulous experience! - Wonderful experience learning about a variety of different cheeses as well as the aging process of cheese. Martina was extremely knowledgeable and provided wonderful insight into why cheeses have different flavors and softness. Afterward we had a tasting of different types of cheese at different stages of maturation. Everyone enjoyed the experience. Arona is a lovely town on Lake Maggiore to explore as well. Be sure to go into the older part of town. Highly recommend the experience

Fine cheese experience - What an amazing experience. It was explained in clear English what they do. It was also told immediately that they only promote the ripening process and that the cheeses come to them from all over the country. Tasting was delicious and the prosecvo tasted good. Fantastic!
