Highly recommend - Sergio was a fantastic tour guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the factories and how the products are made. The only thing that would have made the day even better was if Sergio was also the tour guide of the balsamic factory (he's the tour guide for parmesan and prosciutto factories) because of how excellent he was. We learned so much. It was a seamless day from start to finish with excellent tastings and tours. I highly recommend this trip.

Wonderful experience - I did the complete tour and I emphasize that the balzamic aceto was my favorite. Completely out of the obvious and the aceto is wonderful. It was impossible to leave without some to take home.

A Great Tour, A Guide - This was a fantastic experience. Our guide was excellent and was very thorough in guiding us through the intricacies of the Parmagiano cheese making process and also Prosciutto di Parma. You really begin to appreciate the skill and care that goes into these wonderful products. The Balsamic vinegar part of the tour provided tastings of the different types and ages. The nuances in the flavors were enhanced by a thorough explanation of each. Very worthwhile. I would recommend this tour to anyone that loves Italian food.

Cancelled on us at the last minute - We booked this tour and we really looking forward to it during our stay at Bologna . The tour operator cancelled at the last moment so we didn’t get to go. Very disappointed and although the cost of the tour was refunded our $56 AUD currency costs left us out of pocket
