“The perfect day - Bellisimo! The day started with Guiseppe arriving in a lovely Mercedes sedan to take us on our tour - great surprise as we didn’t realise ‘Private’ actually meant just the 2 of us. First stop was a very informative tour of a bio reggiano parmigiana cheese factory that exceeded our expectations. Next to the Lamborghini museum 😍 for a great display and history. Third stop was a traditional balsamic vinegar artisan where we had the most incredible lunch which showcased their vinegars and the local produce- could’ve stayed all day. Final destination was the Ferrari museum where you could spend a lot of time - this museum with its extensive collection including F1 cars and history is well worth the visit. Not having to worry about driving between all the destinations, having access to the sites taken care of, being treated to lovely Guiseppe’s company and being so comfortable made this tour one of our best in Italy. Great value for the cost and definitely recommend. Perfecto, grazie mille Guiseppe” - Reviewed at 2024-10-27
