Discover the three authentic flavors that define the heart of Emilia's Food Valley.
Overview of your Bologna tour
Some of Italy's most extraordinary culinary traditions are still produced exclusively within a remarkably small area of Emilia-Romagna. For centuries, the knowledge and craftsmanship behind these iconic products have been passed down from generation to generation, earning this region the well-deserved nickname of Italy's Food Valley. Join me on a journey to discover the authentic world of Parmigiano Reggiano and Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena DOP, before ending the day with a visit to a renowned Lambrusco winery, where you'll enjoy the wine that has accompanied Emilia's cuisine for generations, together with a light lunch featuring local specialties
