Local Gastronomy Tours & Cooking Classes

Immerse yourself in the rich culinary traditions of the Emilian Apennines. These tours offer guided visits to local cheese producers (e.g., Parmigiano Reggiano, ricotta), prosciutto factories, and balsamic vinegar cellars in the surrounding area. Participants can taste regional specialties directly from the source. Additionally, hands-on cooking classes are often available in various agriturismi or specialized kitchens in towns like Sestola or Fanano, focusing on making fresh pasta (tortellini, tagliatelle), 'gnocco fritto', and other traditional dishes. Prices vary: tours typically 40-80 EUR/person, cooking classes 70-120 EUR/person, often including a meal. Availability is generally year-round, with specific seasonal ingredients highlighted.
