Modena Private Tours |
|
Welcome to historic Modena, the heartland of Italy's Reggio Emilia and Parma regions. Whether you wish to sample superb regional gastronomic specialties or learn about the city's vibrant history, there's a private Modena tour to suit your needs. Your local guide is eager to share the best of their region with you.
Modena's Duomo is considered one of the finest Romanesque cathedrals in Italy, and a stunning example of 12th century architecture. Your guide will be sure you visit this World Heritage site, along with the piazzas, market stalls and palaces of Modena's lively medieval centre. Outside of the city, the region's unique foods are calling! Proscuiotto sausage and Parmiginano-Reggiano cheese, Lambrusco and Sangiovese - food and wine fit for a king, and your guide can take you right to the source of its production for the freshest local tastings.
Enjoy sampling Italy's rich foods and even richer history on your private Modena tour. |

| Tour Guide Legal Requirements |
If the nature of the tour is that the guide is 'interpreting the cultural and natural heritage of an area', Italy requires the guide have a guiding license. A person giving tours such as the 'best nightlife spots', 'shopping and fashion tour' or 'restaurant tour' for example, does not require a license. This definition follows the European standard for tour guiding (CEN).
To become a Licensed Tourist Guide, candidates must pass an examination given by the local public tourist authorities to assess and test their knowledge of the area in terms of its history and geography, its art and architecture, its museums and art galleries, churches, its environs and cultural features. As part of the requirements, candidates must also prove their knowledge of each foreign language they applied for with oral and written tests. report error
All ToursByLocals guides have met our ToursByLocals Guide Requirements which includes warranting that they can legally give the tours they offer. |
