Parma and Piedmont
10 Days / 8 Nights

A wealth of gastronomy, art and scenery in two regions often neglected by travellers
to Italy. Here you will find elegant cities, rich local traditions and what we believe to
be the best food and wine in Italy. The landscape varies from the mist-shrouded hills
of Piedmont to the fertile fields of the Po River delta, from bustling market towns to
great castles on Apennine hilltops. This trip is a special gourmet event.
