Italian Food Museum Day Trip from Milan

Of all the countries in the world famous for their food, Italy just might top the list. Sample some of this beloved cuisine on a day trip from Milan to Parma, the Italian town famed for its Prosciutto di Parma (ham) and Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. As you travel through this area that is often considered the Food Valley of Italy, you’ll admire beautiful architecture, hear about its ancient past, and delight in the Parma Ham Museum and the Museum of Parmigiano Reggiano.
