Description - What to expect

Start your Emilia Romanga food tour with a hassle-free pick-up from your hotel and then head toward a dairy production site in Emilia Romagna. Listen to your host and learn how the iconic Parmigiano Reggiano is formed from milk after 36 months. Tour the facility with a guide and learn about the production of the world's favorite cheese.
