Proeven en fietsen Parma

Davide is very kind and nice. The visit to the production facility was interesting, even if you only see a small part of the live production. 20 km by bicycle is very doable because it is all flat. Lunch is more of a standing tasting. A seated lunch would have been ideal.

We had a wonderful morning biking with Davide to a small cheese producer outside of Parma and grabbing lunch at a farm where Davide had apprenticed to learn how to cure meats. The biking (we used traditional bikes) was flat and very doable for us in our 40s and our son who is 12. Weaving around the traffic circles on our way out of town was the only somewhat challenging part for us as some of the turns were tight, but that's nothing to complain about. The meetup spot at their location in town was convenient to walk from our hotel, and easy to find. The experience of watching the cheesemaking and touring that facility was fantastic and exceeded my expectations. Davide was also wonderful at chatting up our son to keep him distracted while riding, which allowed us to simply enjoy the beautiful rural scenery. Definitely recommend this tour!

Ebikes are available for an additional charge. Davide is a fantastic guide and great conversationalist. Verify interesting and informative tour of the people, places, and artisanal processes of Parma. Highly recommend the tour!

Excellent tour. Our guide was very professional and friendly. It was a fantastic experience, and he made a difference. The bicycles were in perfect condition, and it was an unforgettable experience for cheese lovers.

Did this in 100 F degrees and it was still great! Parma is incredibly bike friendly! So interesting to learn about cheese & our guide was great!

Great way to see parma. Super easy biking through scenic parma. Way better than a bus. Apparently I need to type more to leave a review….

Thank you David for the bike tour. It was such an informative tour of the Parma cheese factory and the local area. It was topped off with an amazing lunch at a local restaurant. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Our bike tour with Davide and company was the absolute highlight of our Italy! Parma is an incredibly bike-friendly town with beautiful sights, amazing food, and rich culture. Even more, I’m so glad that we got to know Davide and see his passion for both cycling and the culinary arts. We highly recommend anyone visiting Parma to do this tour!

What a great way to learn first hand the art and craft of making DOP Reggiano Parmesano cheese. An easy bike ride through the countryside enroute to the cheese producer gave us a glimpse of the region. Our very knowledgeable guide showed us the intricacies of producing quality cheese. As an added bonus, we saw a bit of charming Parma on our way in and out of town and had a delicious lunch.

We had a wonderful half day tour with Davide! This type of experience is always a holiday highlight! Davide was very kind and friendly as well as efficient and well organised. The bikes were excellent . We rode out of town through the countryside to a cheese factory. The tour was incredible and Davide very knowledgeable on the cheese making process and the industry in general. Also included a cheese tasting. Then riding on further to the Palazzo Ducale del Giardino through Ducal Park and alongside a stream to a lovely neighbourhood where we stopped to enjoy some of the most delicious cured meats and cheeses along with some great wine before heading back to town. Davide, you are a wonderful host and all round great guy. It was an absolute pleasure meeting you and we very much enjoyed the conversation. We hope you will visit New Zealand one day soon. Grazie Mille!!
