This was our best day in the Bologna area thanks to Eleonora, our guide/translator and Gian Caetano, our driver. We opted for a 6-hour trip to see the production of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, balsamic vinegar from Modena and local wines, followed by lunch. After an early pick-up from our hotel, we visited family-run businesses where we were shown round by... More

This full day tour was a wonderful way to see the beautiful region, taste the classic foods, have an outstanding meal, and have all your foodie questions answered. Morgan was an outstanding guide! Additionally he was exceptionally knowledge-able about Italian foods of many regions. He was extremely patient answering our many questions about food and cooking. I highly recommend this... More

Emilian land tour was a wonderful way to see and taste artisanal products of the region with Morgan. My family and I enjoyed starting the day early to watch the morning's fresh cow milk be made into parmigiano reggiano cheese. The cheesemaker demonstrated and walked us through the process. They even cut a whole wheel for us to taste! Next... More

The tour with Morgan was extremely interesting and filling! We got to taste the finest cheese made by local cheese maker who is very proud of his work (and he should be!) The 40 years old balsamic vinegar was divine! And so was the ham! Morgan the tour guide is locally born and raised in Modena, and is very ethusiastic... More

The day we spent with Morgan was the highlight of our time in Italy. The tour was everything we were looking for and so much more. We were a little worried about a day long tour but when it was over we were sad we didn't have more time. Morgan is wonderful and everyone me met was so excited about... More

My wife and I contacted Morgan after reading the enthusiastic reviews on Trip Adviser. I can only echo all the enthusiastic and accurate descriptions that other reviewers have made. The day with Morgan was the highlight of our three-week tour of Northern Italy. I don't think other reviewers have mentioned that Morgan, despite his Welsh name, is a local guy... More

We recently visited Bologna and had a limited amount of time to tour. We wanted to visit a Parmesan producer and a balsamic vinegar producer and didn't know if it would be possible with the time we had. Emilian Land Tours made it happen and, we could not have asked for anything more. The tour was AWESOME! Our driver and... More

Wonderful experience. Great way of getting to know Emilia Romagna (especially for those who like their food). Morgan (with Nicola's help) did his best to make it both interesting and relaxing. He was punctual in picking us up and the day went exactly as he described in his email with the added bonus of a visit to the town of... More

The tour we took with this company was great. We ended up seeing a Parmigiano-Reggiano farm, a Prosciutto producer, and Balsamic Vinaigrette producer. It was beautiful at the Balsamic Vinaigrette vineyard and it was absolutely a very neat seeing all of the processes behind making each of these products. We also had a great traditional lunch that was not only... More

This is the best full day tour of the Emilia-Romagna food region! We absolutely loved it and it was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy! The tour guide Morgan speaks perfect English and is a wonderful host. Him and the driver picked up from the hotel in Bologna and first took us to a real, authentic, small... More
