What you can expect

I will welcome you in the oldest point of Parma with a very special red bag prepared for you: your tasting kit of typical delicatessen (so selectioned by the best producers)! Now you're ready to discover with me the historical centre from the Middle Ages to present: be an 'image detective', compare historical photos and current monuments listening to our idioms in dialect and curious anecdotes to discover the authentic tradition! All local rarities that only a local person can point you!
Itinerary:
1) Ancient Roman bridge: first hidden place, first tasting!
2) Piazza Ghiaia and historical market: dialect and local customs.
3) Ancient food shops.
4) Pilotta & Piazzale della Pace: an incredible storey and…statues lost! Second tasting.
5) Post office: second hidden place, what you do not expect!
6) Piazza Duomo: discovering Parmigiano cheese (third tasting!)
7) Cathedral (we can enter): really amazing!
8) Via Cavour and Piazza Garibaldi: the modern fashion shops, the biggest square and the Yellow Parma's colour…as our last tasting!
