Bologna: Parmesan, Vinegar, Wine, Lunch +Transfer
Join our exclusive day tour and immerse yourself in the rich flavors of Emilia-Romagna, Italy’s gourmet heartland. Your experience begins at a traditional dairy, where you’ll witness the full process of making Parmigiano Reggiano cheese — from curdling to aging inside vast “cheese cathedrals.” Enjoy a generous tasting of different ages of Parmigiano with ricotta, caciotta, balsamic vinegar, and a glass of local wine. Next, visit a family-run winery to learn about the region’s signature sparkling red — Lambrusco. Toast to tradition with a guided tasting among the vineyards. Finally, explore an Acetaia (balsamic house) to discover how Modena’s “black gold” matures over decades in wooden barrels. The day concludes with a relaxing 3-course lunch (starter, pasta, dessert) at a winery or balsamic producer before returning to Bologna. A perfect blend of flavors, culture, and countryside charm — ideal for food and wine lovers.

Where this sits in Bologna
Bologna is about 8 min by road from Bologna Marconi Airport. The food capital, and it does not have to try. Porticoes for miles, a real university city rather than a museum piece, and Modena and Parma close enough for a day out.
