We booked a wine tour for half a day only the night before and received the confirmation following morning! The driver picked us up at our place in Siena with a very nice and comfortable car. Our driver was Roberto, who spoke very well English and is a very funny and nice guy! He could answer all our questions on Italian cuisine and culture in a very passionate way. The wineries we visited were as authentic as you could imagine and they let us try all their best wines! We had an amazing afternoon and wished we’d booked for the entire day. Wedriveyou.it is highly recommended by us and make sure you ask for Roberto!

Meet your host Monica, a guide at the modern Malpighi acetaia, for a local balsamic vinegar tour and tasting. You will learn about why the region of Modena is world-renowned for its balsamic vinegar and how it is made. You will visit two barrel rooms and a museum of vintage vinegar utensils. The proportion of black to white grape juice and the order of the wood that the vinegar is transferred in is what distinguishes the Malpighi family’s vinegar from others. After your tour you will enjoy a tasting of vinegars of various ages, ranging from 5-25 years, and see if you can determine the age of each vinegar based on its taste. You will leave the experience with one bottle of Saporoso (100 ml) and one bottle of flavored balsamic vinegar.

The madam was going to tour us the brewery and show us how to pair food. She had health condition problem, so her brother ( I guess who is the CEO) lectured us the process of making Balsamico. He was very good presentation and everything he Showed us and told us was extremely interesting. Then he recomended three examples of usage of Balsamico. All of them tasted great. They also have cookbook in English as well as Q code shows us the cooking book. We really appreciate the CEO to be very kind for us and answering all the questions as well as pick up at the station.

I use to travel very often abroad - mostly in the States - and more I travel, more I understand how important is for the people who come from all the World discover the real authentic products and being educated on them! The market is honestly too full of the fake ones! I’m a producer of the authentic DOP Traditional Balsamic Vinegar - not the easily one that you find at the supermarket - and I’ll tell you its history and why locals love it so much! It’s not born to be a business like many of the others, it represents a great part of our local culture. We will also visit the production of the Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese, that’s a local family business where no one speaks English and last but not least, the Winery that wonderfully represents the essence of the Made in Modena. Because Modena is really the realm of fast cars&slow food. Com’on, live the experience with locals and learn authentic informations on our typical products!

Inclusions: You'll taste a few tastings of the representative products in each place, which means different ages of balsamic vinegar, diggerent ages of parmigiano cheese and different kinds of wine

Dear Tripadvisor community, If you are looking to do a tour of an Acetaia while you are in Modena look no further than Acetaia Malagoli. The place itself is so authentic to its roots, Sofia explains everything that needs to be known about Modenese traditions and the importance of Aceto Balsamico to the local culture. Honestly, it was the best experience I have done in Modena.

This was our second tour with Taste of Bologna, having done the Pizza and Gelato tour on a previous visit, this time our daughter joined us and once again we had Sara to guide us through the food and history of Bologna. We started with an interesting Expresso, you need to do the tour to find out more, then through one of the mercado's, then to the best pasta shop in Bologna, we did it on our last tour and I went at 08.30 the morning before the tour to buy some before they ran out! We tried to make tortellini with mixed success , Sara bought fresh pasta and we were off to explore and then have some ragu, more exploring of the city then the bakers (wow) and then the collect our lunch to be enjoyed with a glass of vino, afterwards more exploring and gelato. We all had a fabulous time and learnt so much. Andrea was super helpful with answering question we had and providing restaurant recommendations all of which were really good

We've done a couple of cooking courses in Italy before. This one seemed quite cheap so we weren't expecting too much. However, we had a lovely time. Mum (with no English at all) just got on with her usual food preparation for a normal fresh pasta meal. Her son translated (our Italian is embarrassingly bad) and got in her way so she occasionally grabbed the kitchen utensil or pushed him aside like Mums do! Dad and the dog sat next to us watching telly. It really felt like we were involved in a normal family day. We got lots of hands-on experience rolling pasta and trying to make Tortelloni. Then we all sat down together to eat. Charming experience. We really enjoyed it. Be warned, their lovely house is in the middle of nowhere so take a taxi.
