Description

This unconventional tour of Parma is designed to provide you with a complete, immersive experience delving into the art, lifestyle, and traditions of this wonderful Italian city.

Let me guide you through the most wonderful monuments of Parma on this hour-long Online Experience, starting from a visit to its impressive cathedral. After admiring the beautiful architecture of the cathedral, we will make our way to the very unique medieval baptistery designed by Benedetto Antelami, and take a look at the huge Pilotta monument. I will also point to you the Regio Theatre, and tell you all about the place it occupies in the development of Italian opera as we walk on.

To get to know the city better, we will make a beeline straight for its heart – the Garibaldi Square! As we browse through the traditional shops and interact with locals here, you will get to know Parma from a complete and completely different point of view. Making our way along some silent alleys and crowded squares, we will stop by at a line of small workshops run by the same artisans for the past 50 years. 

While we explore these renowned icons of the city, I will share with you some secrets and curiosities about the style of this city – it has a lot to offer on that front, given that it served as the capital of a small Duchy for three centuries! To end our tour, we will make our way to some gastronomic parlours to discover the other very important side of our little capital: the exciting food culture.

At the end of our time together, I hope to have imbibed you with ample curiosity that you would want to visit Parma in person - to taste the typical food, admire the stunning frescoes and high reliefs, meet in person some local characters, and smell the elegant aroma of my hometown!

I was born and live in Parma, a small city full of interesting things to do and taste. My passion is food and my dream is to share my passion! I did a degree in Food & Wine Science so that I could turn my passion into a job.
I love working in close contact with people, and so in 2013 I decided to become a tourist guide and tour leader to have the chance to show off our Food & Wine specialties and our Art & History to Italian and foreign tourists.
Now you can join me on an online tour and experience these from far away, too. I look forward to showing you around Parma virtually!
