My wife, Kimi, and I along with another couple took the Modena Food Tour on December 29, 2023 with Lori as our guide. She was a wonderful guide; knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She chose great places to introduce us to the foods of Modena: gnocchi fritto at Tiffany, a visit to Mercato Albinelli, sandwiches at L’Or-MA and sweets at Antica Pasticceria San Biagio. This was our third food tour with Taste Bologna and we recommend them highly.

This was easily one of the highlights of our tour of northern Italy. Our guide felt more like an old friend that we had never met. She was so friendly and knowledgeable. And you could tell she was very proud of Modena and the amazing food and culture. We had amazing chats and really soaked up everything we could during this wonderful day. Oh, and the food was fantastic!

We had an absolutely delightful full and amazing guide, who went above and beyond. However, the food tour was not as advertised. We believed we were going to go places where they actually made Pecorino Romano cheese, and also a someone that produced authentic balsamic vinegar. That was not the case.

We enjoyed tour very much. The food is simply but authentic. Iole is a very nice and informative guide. She helped us find the best cheese, ham, balsamic and olive oil. We are satisfied.

This tour is a “must do”! Our very knowledgeable tour guide, Loredana, introduced us to the special and unique qualities and heritage of both Modena and Emilia-Romana. The history is fascinating, and her culinary tasting selections were superb. Our small group (7) all were able to absorb and share in this immersive experience. Additionally, having the tour at the front end of your stay, if possible, allows for follow up visits for more in depth exploration, with knowledge of the geographic layout of the city center. And, photo ops galore! Plus, I learned more about the balsamic vinegar industry and history here through our tasting stop from the fabulous presentation than expected. Perfetto! An enchanting city with tasty delights and experiences await! Grazie Mille, Loredana!!
