Booked a private tour for... - Booked a private tour for 7 people for Prosciutto, Parmigiano Romano and Balsamic Vinegar. Everything was amazing - the communication before the tour, the guide, and the actual tours. Everyone loved it and it was the highlight of our trip to Italy! Our guide Luca was great and helped with suggestions even after the trip. As per description, our tour included sampling of prosciutto, cheese of different maturation, and balsamic vinegar. It didn’t include breakfast/lunch, but we were not hungry after the tour. We had small kids in the party (5yo and 3yo) and they were not bored during the tour. Also they had car seats ready in the car for them. Would highly recommend!

Zero crowd. Go as close as you can to the producers. Best tour and guide. 100% worth the money. - We traveled through Italy and took various tours, but this was one of the best. Matteo was amazing. He took us to the finest family run prosciutto and balsamic producer to experience the production process firsthand and taste the exceptional products. We also got to see the cheese making process in the Parmesan factory, and taste a variety of cheeses. The pace was perfect; although it was a four hour tour we never felt rushed. We even had time to walk around a beautiful old village. Matteo was very kind and knowledgeable. And the best part was- neither he nor the producers pushed you to buy the products. TBH the products were so good, we ended up buying a whole bunch anyway. The van was immaculate and extremely comfortable, and they were kind enough to take our luggage along and drop us off at the train station after our tour. Book the store and don’t forget to ask for Matteo.

Experienced Emilia-Romagna with all of our senses - Had a great day with Nicoletta and Ugo and learned so much. Having a private tour was perfect for our family and allowed us to ask lots of questions and interact with the workers at each of the locations.

A really great food experience! - We had a wonderful time visiting the parmigiano, prosciutto, and balsamic factories in the region. This tour was better than the semi-private tours because you could visit all three and be back at your hotel for a later lunch, rather than much later in the day. All three stops were interesting, but the balsamic tour was amazing. You get the opportunity to visit the home of the owner, see their “attic” of balsamic barrels, and get a true history of balsamic production in the region. Frederica (our guide) was incredible. She gave us the history of these three industries in the region and shared her own thoughts on current production methods. She was very engaging and made the trip seem shorter than it was. If you only have a few (like 5) hours and want to explore these exciting food histories, this is a great tour.

TOP Food Tour - Stella is really super!
Tours with attention to detail: from the choice of stops, made with impeccable taste, to transfers with driver on new and comfortable vehicles.
I recommend Slow Emotion both for the experience it offers and for the mindset: we did so many things, all with the right timing, without hurrying, enjoying every moment.
Highly recommended for those who want to pamper both the soul and the palate!

Primo experience - Totally over-delivered on expectations. They had the pull to get us into the best producers of Parmesan Reggiano, balsamic di Modena, and prosciutto di Modena. Nicolette was a very clear and enjoyable communicator - not too much, and not too little. The time flew by, and we keep talking about it. Worth every euro!

A Special Day! - This was one of my family’s most favorite days while visiting Bologna. Our guide Mattheo was very knowledgeable, friendly, and patient. Every place he took us felt special and unique to the region. All communication was clear and reliable. Our driver was great as well and put us at ease. We were a group of 10 ranging in age from 14-75 and everyone enjoyed themselves. Would definitely recommend!
