Itinerary

N/A

Visit an authentic producer of Parmigiano-Reggiano PDO: you’ll discover how the King of all cheeses has been literally made by hand in the same way since the Benedictine monks invented it 10 centuries ago! From the curdling into the typical copper heaters to the salting and the final ageing in the so-called wheel cathedrals, you will be a privileged witness of almost all the steps of production of this out-and-out food icon. Tasting at the end.

1 hour
Castello Di Torrechiara

Picture-stop at the medieval fortified village of Torrechiara dominated by its breathtaking castle.

10 minutes
Salumificio Conti

Guided visit with final tasting at one of the local family-run ham factories producing the mythical Prosciutto di Parma PDO: you will get to know why the best ham can only be made in the hills of Parma, where the marino wind blows from the Ligurian Sea through the river valley.

Wow! What a day! Vale was just spectacular, knowledgeable and a great tour guide. We highly recommend this tour. Great communication, ease in meeting, highly highly recommend. We sampled three different Parmesan cheeses and at the Parma ham factory we sampled three different Parma hams. After finishing the tour she pointed us in the direction of a castle we could tour. It was a superb day from start to finish.
