Excellent food tour!

I highly recommend this food tour of Modena.
Naturally, one highlight was learning about (and sampling) the balsamic that Modena is known for. But the cuisine of Modena is so much more than just balsamic. This tour gave us the opportunity to try lesser known items from Modena . One of my personal favourites was the food from the "market". For instance, I had some ricotta from the market that was unlike any I have ever had in Canada. Silky smooth...it was exquisite.
The tour guide was very good. She was entertaining and informative and she kept the tour on track while at the same time happily answering our many questions about Modena's cuisine and culture.
Really enjoyed the experience!

Highly recommend this food tasting! You will learn about Modena’s history & culture as well as experiencing the food, the tour guide is great. Highlights for me were the breakfast, food market and balsamic tasting. Thank you very much!
Fantastic Food Tour!

Our tour guide, Lori, was very informative and provided us with a little bit of the history of Modena and then guided us through the market and local tastings. She was very knowledgeable about what ingredients and food are authentic versus what ingredients are from outside of the Modena/Emilia-Romagna area. We had a great time with her. We would definitely do a tour with Lori again.
Modena-The food!

One of the highlights of our two week vacation in Italy! Our tour guide, Catrina was terrific! Very knowledgeable about fine food, wine, traditional balsamic and all things with great Italian Food !! Our tour included stops at the indoor farmers market in Modena, several restaurants, balsamic vinegar store, where we learned about real Balsamic and the loving process involved in making "real traditional" balsamic. Great Tour! Terrific Tour Guide. Grazie Mille!!
Don't miss this tour!

Christina was awesome. She is a local and took us to local places. IF you want to live a day like an Italian in Modena, do this tour. She was delightful, the places were definitely oft the beaten path, so no tourist traps.
Don't waste time on a balsamic tour or a Parmesan tour - We were able to figure out how to buy cheese, taste different ages and sample balsamic from different processors - not just one when you are on a tour.
Modena und die Sinne des Geschmacks

Es war sehr schmackhaft und interessant die Spezialitäten von Modena kennen zu lernen. Der Haselnusslikör sehr fein der kleine Snack namens Niocco Fritto mit einem Cappuccino ist der Wachmacher des Morgens. Auch die Degustation des Balsamicoessig war ein spiel der Geschmacksnerven ich sag nur das was man in den Lebensmittelgeschäfte kaufen kann ist weit entfernt vom richtigen Balsamico.
A must

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
