Description
Join us in the heart of the Langhirano district in Val Parma, the exclusive birthplace of the one and only Prosciutto di Parma.
This sensory journey begins in the production areas and leads you into the curing rooms, filled with the unmistakable aromas of tradition.
You will witness every stage of the process, from fresh cuts to salted hams and those in the final aging phase, while our expert guide reveals the secrets behind this world-renowned delicacy. The highlight of the tour is the 'spillatura' (needling) demonstration: a fascinating traditional technique where a horse-bone needle is used to scent and certify the ham’s superior quality.
To conclude, indulge in a guided tasting of aged Prosciutto di Parma, perfectly paired with rustic local bread and fine wines from the Parma hills.
Round-trip transport is included.

Cancellation Policy
We understand that plans can change unexpectedly. To ensure fairness to both our clients and our team, the following cancellation policy applies:
Cancellations within 24 hours of the scheduled appointment
Due to the limited notice, cancellations made 24 hours or less before the appointment will incur a 100% cancellation fee. Unfortunately, no refunds will be provided as it becomes difficult to fill the spot on such short notice.
Cancellations between 48 to 72 hours prior to the scheduled appointment
If you need to cancel your appointment between 48 and 72 hours before the scheduled time, a 50% penalty will be charged. You will receive a refund of 50% of the total fee paid. This allows us some time to adjust our schedule but still impacts our ability to rebook your slot.

Cancellations made more than 72 hours before the appointment are fully refundable, with no penalties applied. This provides us ample time to reallocate resources and accommodate other clients.
