Taste of Tradition: Parmigiano, Wine & Balsamic Tour from Bologna

About this activity

Discover the true flavors of Emilia Romagna on this small group artisan food tour from Bologna. Visit three family run producers creating the region’s most iconic specialties: Parmigiano Reggiano, local wines, and traditional balsamic vinegar.

Led by a passionate local host, you’ll step behind the scenes to witness the craft of authentic food making , from the early morning curdling of Parmesan to the slow aging of balsamic barrels. At a local winery, taste different varieties and learn how Emilia’s unique terroir shapes the character of each wine, from crisp whites to smooth reds deeply connected to the region’s cuisine. Along the way, enjoy a typical Italian breakfast and generous tastings at every stop.

With fewer guests, the experience feels personal and immersive, giving you time to ask questions, take photos, and connect directly with the artisans who keep these traditions alive. All tastings, breakfast, and wine are included; just bring your curiosity and appetite!
