Overview

The food here is tradition, family, excellence! How to discover the real food of Parma, not just the most famous products? With a local like me who will guide you inside the city market, a must for Parmesan! In an hour we will immerse ourselves in aromas and colors.
I will tell you how the typical recipes are born as we stroll through the alleys of the historic center enlivened by the stalls. We will stop in a fresh pasta shop to taste the Anolini, we will stop in a historic deli, we will toast in a calm alley with a glass of Lambrusco dei Colli and we will go to a cheesemaker's stall to test Parmesan cheese and Spalla Cotta salami.
We will then end up in Borgo Basini, where there is the most famous pizzeria in the centre... and much more!

What's Included

  • Snacks Small samples from the stalls and street food shops (Crudo di Parma, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, bread). You can then buy what you want directly from the merchants!

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
