MOTORVALLEY: Lambo Museum, Ferrari & Pagani fabriksrundturer + museer

We enjoyed the tour immensely. Our two youngest sons, ages 14 and 16, rated this tour the best tour!! They felt it was better than the Uffizi and Academia Galleries in Firenze. Of the 3 museums Pagani factory tour was best, followed by Ferrari and then Lamborghini Museum.

Everything ran like clockwork. We saw all three car experiences Pagani, Ferrari and Lamborghini) it kept everyone’s attention. Would highly recommend it!

They were reliable, on time, kept in touch with our group. We first went to the Lamborghini museum, it was absolutely amazing, their gift shop is nice too, if you want to do their simulator, you have to schedule it; then we went to Pagani, no cell phone allowed in the factory, they make you put all phones in a locker, it’s a guided tour with precise time in each section, and lastly Ferrari, we ate lunch there, they have a fabulous sandwich, dessert and snacks place for reasonable prices. The bus tour also does not allow photography or video, the museum was amazing, they have a big gift shop! Definitely worth every penny!

We truly enjoyed our day tour to the Lamborghini, Ferrari and Pagani factories/museums. It was particularly interesting to experience and compare them one after the other on a single day, as they're quite different! You really get a feel for the different cultures of each car maker and their inspiration for the cars' craft. Our private driver was very pleasant, and although he spoke very little English, he was able to graciously handle our needs for the day. My only regret is that the timing for each location was very tight. We could have easily spent more time in the Lamborghini and Ferrari museums, for example, and we barely had enough time to wolf down a sandwich (albeit delicious) at the Ferrari Cafe in between stops. I do believe this is due to our full itinerary and the timing of the factory tours, however. One thing to note is that with frequent strikes, there is a chance you will not see the factory workers actually performing their jobs during the factory tours. This was the case for us on the Lamborghini tour, although the guide there was so excellent that we felt we still received an outstanding tour. As my husband is a huge petrol head, this tour was specifically booked for him, and he truly enjoyed every minute.

It was a full day of cars, food, and drinks! Our itinerary included the Ferrari Museum, Enzo Ferrari Museum, then lunch at Pedroni's Osteria where we had tortelloni and for the first time, vanilla ice cream with Balsamic Vinegar. After lunch, we visited their production area, were whisked off to the Gavioli winery and their impressive museum (including Senna's F1 Williams car) before we finished our tour visiting the Pagani Museum and the Lamborghini Museum. Riccardo, our driver, was prompt and kept the day on schedule despite traffic, rainy weather, and us just taking too much time enjoying the balsamic flavors.

This was a wonderful day. We were picked up on time from our hotel in Modena. Our guide, Riccardo, spoke English well and was a personable young man. We started at the small Maserati museum. Then we drove to the Ferrari museum. This is a can’t miss for car enthusiasts. The cars and the history are epic. Then we did the balsamic vinegar tour. Excellent. We learned much and have a better application for the art of balsamic vinegar. Lunch was very relaxing and good with our newfound appreciation for balsamic. Next we went on the Lamborghini factory tour. Again excellent. Imagine watching a $1m car being built from start to when they drive it off the line. Lastly we finished the day with a wine tour. This is not the usual tasting as there is a tour and of course amazing history of the winery through many generations. We recommend this tour. Leave the driving and logistics to the experts.
