Amazing, delicious experience. Samantha our guide was very pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful. We were treated to food locations we would never have known on our own. Small group of 5 meant we had a more personalized experience. I would definitely recommend this tour.

The absolute best way to see Parma and learn about the city and local specialties. Barbara took us around the beautiful narrow streets of Parma and into the kitchens of several family-owned shops. The chefs were fabulous, sharing their spaces and specialties with us. Barbara answered all of our questions and explained everything beautifully. We would never have learned all we did without this tour. Highly recommend.

Lisa was an outstanding guide. The places she took us were superb. The only thing that we were disappointed with, was not seeing the actual production which the pictures that accompanied the tour description implied. Getting the back room tours were fantastic. Loved learning about Anolini. The tour wasn’t just about the cheese, it covered all sorts of different food from savory to sweet.

Learning about Parma ham, Parmaigiano reggiano (learning the different ages and tastes of the cheese), Agnolotti e Brodo, and gelato. Learning history of the Parma area was also very nice.
