Traveler reviews
Cheese
What a wonderful tour. We watched them making the cheese through all the processes and it was explained by a knowledgeable guide. The tastings were generous. Organic family run cheese location.
Parmagiano cheese process
Saw all the steps involved in this process which were explained in a simple and easy way. Transport to the property was simple and efficient.
A total non-event
We waited for half an hour in the cold and rain. When we contacted the company to say the bus hadn’t arrived they said the tour was cancelled. There is no excuse for them not contacting us.
What tour?!
We waited in the cold rain for half an hour to be picked up. It was only when we contacted the operator that they told us the tour was cancelled. Completely unacceptable and unprofessional.
Awesome Trip to the Cheese factory
Meeting destination is very convenient, we came from Milan and met up at the train station - The ride was comfortable and scenes were pretty cool. At the factory they gave hairnets and walked us through step by step how to make the cheese with valuable info along the way which was awesome. The guide which was an ex-cheese maker was AMAZING, He was funny and gave us a lot of info. We did a tasting in the end as well and got to buy some!! Overall HIGHLY recommended we had an amazing time!
