From Milk to Wheels: Parmesan Tour and Tasting in Parma Discount Tickets

Overview

Enjoy a guided visit to a fully integrated farm-to-table dairy and cheese facility, where cows produce organic Parmigiano with full traceability. Engage all five senses: watch cheese-making, touch the cheese, smell its aroma, listen to farm sounds, and taste the delicate flavor. Enjoy humorous animal metaphors and stories that blend history, geography, and psychology, including the “Japanese Room,” “Wow Room,” and the story of the pig. Playful language like “C’è una volta” reveals deeper truths about tradition. The tour ends with a final tasting. The 9 a.m. tour uniquely includes witnessing the daily Parmigiano birth, a highlight. Other tours visit the farm, cheese aging, and tasting, but do not include the birth process.

The tour beginning at 9 a.m. is special because it focuses on witnessing the birth of Parmigiano—an unforgettable highlight for all attendees. Please note that tours at other times do not focus on witnessing the birth of Parmigiano, because it's made once a day in the morning. These tours still feature the visit to the farm and cheese production & aging facility, along with the tasting experience

Please note that buses only run three times a day (once in the morning, once in the afternoon, and once in the evening). Therefore, we recommend arriving by car or taxi for convenience.
