I’m a certified Tour Leader in Emilia Romagna and with me, you can discover the original charm and lively character of the fascinating cities in this region, get insider stories, and discover hidden gems and local markets.
If it's true that the place where we are born says so much about us, then Bologna and generally my region Emilia Romagna represent my best business card. I love good food, good company and traditions, but at the same time, I consider myself a curious globetrotter.
This last aspect has led me to explore different cultures, languages, and countries: I've lived in Estonia, Spain, Germany, and Canada at different stages of my life. I keep unique memories of each of those places, because I have been fortunate enough to share my experiences with locals, and I acknowledge how this aspect can make a visit unique.

Description
One of the ideal destinations while visiting Bologna and Emilia Romagna region, is the city of Modena. The town is perhaps most famous as the home of some of Italy’s most famous automotive brands such as Ferrari and Maserati – but it's quickly becoming a place of interest especially for foodies, who come here to discover the culinary delights of Modena, and its quiet and genuine life.
We'll meet at Bologna train station and, after a fast 30-minute train ride, we'll stroll through the ancient streets of Modena city centre, reach the main square Piazza Grande and admire the UNESCO world heritage Cathedral and the Ghirlandina tower. We then experience the foodie heart of Modena, historical Mercato Albinelli, where you'll discover Modena's culinary tradition by tasting some local products like Prosciutto di Parma, Parmigiano Reggiano and Lambrusco wine. Next, you'll walk along unexplored corners of the old town and visit some historical "botteghe" (family-run shops) where you'll have the chance to taste and buy traditional Aceto Balsamico and other local products.
