Emilia-Romagna Food and Supercar Day Tour
Lamborghini, Ferrari, Parmigiano and Balsamic Vinegar: A Full-Day Small Group Tour from Bologna
Taste the finest flavors of the Italian Food Valley and walk through the legendary halls of two iconic supercar museums — all in a single unforgettable day.
This Emilia-Romagna food and supercar tour takes you deep into the countryside between Modena and Bologna, where family-run producers have been crafting Parmigiano Reggiano and Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena for generations. Between tastings and factory visits, you will explore two of the most celebrated automotive museums in the world: Lamborghini and Ferrari.
The tour is designed for curious travelers who want substance over spectacle. Every stop involves direct access to the people who make these products, meaning your questions will be answered by the artisans and producers themselves, not by a tour guide reading from a script.
The itinerary moves at a relaxed pace, classified as easy difficulty, making it suitable for a broad range of travelers. A light lunch centered on gastronomic pairing is included at the premises of a balsamic vinegar producer, giving you a genuine sense of how these exceptional ingredients are used in local cuisine.

Guided visit to a working dairy farm to witness the production of aged Parmigiano Reggiano cheese firsthand.
