What you’ll do

Eager to indulge in the branded luxury of the Italian lifestyle for one day? Come try the tastiest PDO gourmet foods of Emilia combined with the most iconic car of all times: Parmigiano-Reggiano, Traditional Balsamic Vinegar and Ferrari!

Itinerary

09:30 am – Meet the staff guide directly at a family-run Acetaia and join your private tour of the magic ageing lofts where Balsamic Vinegar is created and aged, with final tasting of their full production of aceti, from the two Traditional grades (the one and only original product) to the “regular” ones (a sort of by-product) and the so-called condiments.

10:30 am – Move on to the second stop.

11:00 am – Private guided visit at a family-run Parmigiano-Reggiano producer’s, stepping in all the production areas from the milk heaters to the drying, salting and ageing rooms, which are also known as the “wheel cathedrals”: once there, as a kind of magic, you will be the privileged witnesses of something special… A final rich brunch, including 4 different ageings of Parmigiano paired with other local deli foods and a glass of Lambrusco, will almost make you full for the rest of the day!

12:00 pm – Move on to the hills of Maranello.

01:00 pm – Visit the Ferrari Museum (on own) and just live the dream, as they say down there: a permanent exhibition dedicated to both the most recent supercars and the Formula 1 models, as well as a pit stop area, test-drive simulators, a large Ferrari Store and a welcoming cafeteria.

02:15 pm – End of activities and back to hotel /head on to you next destination.

Wish a cherry on top? A 20-min Ferrari Test Drive on the streets of Maranello can be added any time, just take a look at the available supplements!

Notes

Program: the described program may undergo minor changes in the timings.

Pick-ups: If you add the car+driver supplement from a specific town, you will be picked up at your hotel downtown. If out of town, you could be asked to pay a further supplement.

Live production: being artisanal and not industrial products, the working cycle is not repeated every day at the same time, so it is not guaranteed to see craftsmen at work at each site (for example: Wine and Vinegar making, Prosciutto di Parma, Culatello).

Driving license: an internationally valid driving license with at least 1 years of driving are mandatory for the test-drive.

Guide: the tour does not include a private guide following you up during the tour: each visit is run directly by the producer in a private mode.

Our drivers are NOT driver-guides, since this kind of professional profile is forbidden by the Italian law.

From 7 days to 3 days before the tour starting date: 50% penalty;
