Enjoy a day of gastronomic excellence, departing conveniently from Firenze Santa Maria Novella. By high-speed train, you'll arrive in Bologna, the culinary capital, in no time. This day trip is designed to offer you maximum flexibility: make the most of your time by choosing the experience that best suits your wishes.
Those seeking a focused, top-quality experience can opt for the Parmigiano Reggiano food tasting. You will embark on a true sensory journey through three different excellent levels of aging (over 20, 30 and 40 months), expertly enhanced by pairing with artisanal preserves and honey, all accompanied by a glass of white or red wine.
Lovers of Emilian sparkling wines, on the other hand, can opt for the vertical tasting of Lambrusco. An expert will guide you in discovering three different labels, accompanied by a carefully curated selection of local specialties. The experience culminates with the fun "sommelier game," a sensory challenge to test your sense of smell and your palate in an original and engaging way.
If you want to fully immerse yourself in the soul of Bologna, the guided food tour will take you through the shops and historic medieval markets, where you will savor the true masterpieces of the region. For those who don't want to compromise, the full package combines the rich food tour with the Lambrusco tasting: the ideal formula to maximize your trip and experience Emilia in full.
The choice is yours! Whichever package is perfect for you, the train journey is already included; the culinary experiences, on the other hand, vary according to your selection. Get ready to go – Bologna awaits you: have a great trip and bon appétit!
