FERRARI Factory, Balsamic vinegar (Full Day)
Ferrari Museum and Balsamic Vinegar Tour from La Spezia Cruise
Embark on a captivating journey departing from La Spezia cruise port as you meet your driver for a scenic ride through the Appenine Mountains towards Maranello, the town near Modena where Enzo Ferrari officially opened the Ferrari car factory in 1947. The racing team initiated its activity in 1929, securing the most constructor’s championships (16) and producing the highest number of winning drivers (15).
THE MUSEUM
Immerse yourself in the Ferrari Museum, featuring a permanent exhibition of remarkable Formula 1 cars. During the visit, experience the thrill of driving an F1 in a semi-professional simulator (with a Junior simulator available for children) or challenge yourself in a real pit stop, changing a tire against the clock. Ferrari stands as the only factory globally that self-produces every single part of its cars. To delve deeper, join the official guided tour of the factory and test track.
THE BALSAMIC VINEGAR “ACETAIA”
Following this exciting experience, it’s time for lunch at a balsamic vinegar producer. The Ferrari museum is situated in an area where balsamic vinegar is produced. This coveted dressing has gained popularity in recent years, but its production and aging methods remain unchanged since 1747 when the term “balsamic” was first associated with vinegar.
Visit the farm to learn about the methods of making, refining, and aging this “black gold,” and of course, savor its unique taste. For lunch, indulge in local specialties paired with balsamic vinegar, such as Parmigiano Reggiano, Parma ham, Bologna Mortadella, all accompanied by the local red sparkling wine called Lambrusco.
After lunch, decide whether to drive a real Ferrari, visit Modena, or Parma on the way back to La Spezia.
Note: If you have a passion for race cars, further customize your shore excursion by renting and driving a real Ferrari at one of the car rentals around the museum. Alternatively, visit the Lamborghini car factory and museum (located 40 minutes’ drive from Maranello) for a complete immersion in the world of roaring engines.
