Excellent Food Tour with Slow Travel Italy!

Our food walking tour by Slow Travel Italy was excellent! Our guide Teresa was interesting, knowledgeable, and so nice. There were only 3 of us on the tour, so very easy to get around. First stop was the showroom of Acetaia Malpighi, a member of the local balsamic consortium since 1850. We got to try their 12-year and 25-year old traditional balsamics which were incredible, then a bunch of their classic products (the kind you see in an Italian supermarket), which were also delicious.

A perfect afternoon in Modena.

It was a fantastic experience. Teresa was an excellent guide: she knows her city deeply and during the tour, she was able to customize the explanations based on our interests, also giving us great advice for afterwards. The food was delicious, with balsamic vinegar and wine as the true stars of the tasting. I absolutely recommend this experience to anyone passing through Modena. Top-notch!

Perfect day in Parma

It was a perfect day to visit Modena and Terese was the best guide. I loved the balsamic tour and education! Our stops were spaced out well, and she was so delightful to spend the afternoon with. Thanks Terese!!
