Tour with passionate guide
Published on Aug, 2024
Although it rained, it was a very detailed description of Parma's most important sights and a lot of history background. We even had a little cheese tasting at the end of the tour. Thanks again!
Excellent tour of Parma Centro storico
Published on Jul, 2024
Excellent tour guide (sorry to say I forgot her name - young, blonde woman, excellent English). She gave us an excellent tour of Parma history and sites in the Centro storico. We ended with a Parmesano-Reggiano tasting!
Overview of Parma
Published on Jun, 2024
This is a great way to learn the places to visit. Gulia was very knowledgeable and did a nice job explaining us the history of the locations. You need to plan additional time to visit sites since this does not include going inside many of the sites we visited.
Parma history and culture through food
Published on Nov, 2023
Beatrice was an excellent and engaging guide who gave us so much information about Parma, its history and culture but especially its unique culinary traditions. We fad so much good food to taste, we didn’t need dinner that night.
Beautiful Parma
Published on Oct, 2023
Inside the churches , beautiful , they don’t make them like that anymore. Also the tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the town.
