Absolutely loved it! - Our guide Darren was so fun and full of knowledge on Balsamic Vinegar and on Modena. If we could have kept his service all day, that would have been fantastic but only a 2.5 hour tour. LOVE IT!

Fun day in Modena! - We had a wonderful Modena Food Tour with Eugenio! We started with a balsamic vinegar tasting followed by a visit to the central market. The market was spectacular and vibrant and the meat and cheese selection delicious. Next was a pasta tasting and the one of the best gelatos we had on an 18 day trip to Italy. We would definitely recommend this food tour to others in the quaint town of Modena, a quick day trip from a lot of cities in Italy.

Highly recommend - great guide, great food, great value - Jessica was an excellent, local guide that provided history, facts and insight into Modena. All a bonus to the purpose of the tour - the food of Modena. We ate, not sampled, delicious food and gelato. The beverages, alcoholic and non-alcoholic flowed freely. We also stopped to sample and learn about the balsamic vinegars of Modena at a wonderful shop.Be prepared to end the tour full of information and a full belly. Highly recommend.
