Emilia Romagna might be the best region of Italy for culinary exploration. Visit a prosciutto producer like Salumificio Conti — one of the local family-run ham factories producing the mythical Prosciutto di Parma PDO. Spend some time with the makers of Parmigiano Reggiano, who have kept the traditional methods alive since the Benedictine monks invented the process 10 centuries ago. Curdling into the typical copper heaters, salting and the final ageing in the so-called wheel cathedrals. Taste the savoury masterpiece in the end, of course. Make your trip longer and learn the secrets of the best balsamic vinegar at Tenuta Medici Ermete. Parma is the gateway to Italy's culinary heritage. With many tours, you can choose to drive yourself or get a driver for a more sit-back experience.
