182 years of aceta balsamico di Modena - Our tour was everything we wanted! Learning about making balsamic vinegar--the heart, time, and dedication it takes--was so fun! Not to mention all of the snacks, wine, and balsamic vinegar we were able to enjoy as well. Grazie mille Marcello for sharing Acetaia Cavedoni with us--what an incredible experience.

An amazing experience - This was an amazing tour that everyone should experience. The guide, Elisa was extremely friendly, kind and knowledgeable. The owner , Marcello is so passionate and also very kind. The tour was amazing and they explain the process of the various stages of the balsamics. The tasting included balsamic of various ages paired with cheese, meat. Fruit and chocolate cake. This was our favorite experience of our 3 week visit to all of Italy. This is a must for everyone.

Wonderful time - It is a family run business and they opened up their small business to our small group and showed and taught us so much about the Basamic Vinegar they produce. The tasting at the end was also amazing and delicious!

Modena balsamic vinegar is a family heritage - I loved this tour. Very informative personal tour of a family’s balsamic vinegar stores and an understanding of the beautiful tradition in Modena of starting batterias of vinegar for each family member when they are born and nurturing them through the years. The family are lovely and the food was delicious. A very educational tour about Modena tradition

Best tour out five that I did on this trip - All the guests were treated like family members, the owner did an excellent presentation, and we sampled many types and years of his product. We sampled his product in salads, with parm and ricotta cheese, with fruit etc.. and at no time he tried no pressure sell his products. The presented to us his entire family and really made us feel welcome to his farm.

Great tour; expensive to get there. - This tour was excellent! The only reason I didn’t rated a five star is that no transportation was provided, and it cost more for taxis than the amount of the tour. This should’ve been more prominently disclosed in describing the tour.
