All the food, drinks and venues were great, with short walks between each stop. We were the only ones to book our timeslot so it was nice to have the 1-1 experience and get to know a little about Leonardo himself. I think the tour has been very well planned and thought out, especially for a frequent traveller like myself.”

Travel from Bologna into Emilia-Romagna’s food country with guides such as Stefania, Roberta, or Stefy. Visit a Parmigiano Reggiano producer, historic balsamic cellar, and Lambrusco winery, then sit down to a generous Modenese lunch. The English tour lasts about eight hours and runs in a small group of up to 26.

“If you're in Bologna, do yourself a favor and take this tour! I had no idea I would be so captivated by the Parmigiano Reggiano and balsamic vinegar process—it was eye-opening! But what I really loved was the relaxed pace. I never felt rushed; it felt more like hanging out with friends while learning about Italian traditions. The Lambrusco tasting in the oldest cellar in the region was an unexpected highlight—cool vibe. And the lunch? Let's just say it was the best pasta I've had in years. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a chill yet informative experience from Bologna. They also offer cooking classes and food tours in town…”
