This is the first of 3 videos about Modena. Stay tuned for more about the city, its culture, its people and restaurants.

[@ThomasFranciosi]

Always love to see my hometown from a different lens. Thank you for all the interesting glimpses of Modena, who I otherwise have dismiss.

[@happygoluckytravel]

Many thanks! We appreciate you kind words. We have two other videos on Modena, too, in case you haven't seen them yet!

[@jukesofhazzard88]

My favourite city in the world!

[@iluomobravo]

Thank you for this video! Im staying in Parma for Christmas and will be sure to visit Modena

[@happygoluckytravel]

Thank you for watching and have a great trip!

LOOOVED your video! Im going in a few weeks to modena so i’ve been taking notes from this. Thanks for sharing, can’t wait to be there.🙌

[@happygoluckytravel]

Thank you for watching! Have fun in Modena!

[@stephenpay8237]

So much yummy food! Can't wait to try a fritto.

[@happygoluckytravel]

It's so good! I think it was my favorite, too.

My wife and I really enjoy and appreciate your videos. You, as a couple, are doing and experiencing what we see ourselves doing beginning sometime next year. Hats off to you for the time invested in making quality vids. I know it’s off topic, but I wonder if you have any knowledge about finding low-priced longer term car rental options in Italy/Europe? I remember coming across info on that topic a few years ago but can’t seem to locate it. Any help or experience there would be greatly appreciated.

[@happygoluckytravel]

We're so happy for you! All the best for the start of your adventure next year! All the French car manufacturers have great euro-lease programs for non-EU residents. You can pick up the brand new car in a selection of cities, doesn't have to be France. If you keep the car for over a month the numbers start to make a lot of sense. We reserved ours six months before pickup.

[@greggscheibel6882]

Excellent, sounds similar or possibly exactly to what I remember from before. Will definitely pursue that option when not in urban areas and a car is less important. Great tip, thanks!!!

Grazie per il tuo incoraggiamento! Qual è il tuo posto preferito in Liguria?

@@happygoluckytravel Avete registrato parte della puntata di Bogliasco sullo scoglio grosso nella passeggiata di Nervi, cento metri da casa mia. Potrei consigliarvi il Tipico a Bogliasco e per la mia preferita focaccia col formaggio Edo Bar a Sori, un ambiente informale e caotico che a mio vedere propone la migliore in assoluto.....take care and keep travelling

[@happygoluckytravel]

Grazie per i consigli! Abbiamo alcune cose da aspettarci per il nostro prossimo viaggio!

Nice video. I mainly take opera trips to Italy and scope out interesting foods and sights in between shows. Two greatest opera singers were from Modena -- Luciano Pavarotti and Mirella Freni. In fact the beautiful Modena Teatro Communale was renamed after Pavarotti. To avoid tourist crowds and see real Italy, I recommend visiting the 'P' cities -- Pisa, Piacenza, Perugia, Parma, Padua, Pavia, Pordenone, etc. Caveat -- Do Not order cappuccino after 11:00am. Last but not least, I'm glad to see many new quality Asian restaurants in Italy in recent years, even in a small town like Modena there are several good ristoranti Cinese! Because as much as I love Italian food, like most Americans I crave variety especially if I'm staying a month or longer😋

[@happygoluckytravel]

Thank you for sharing your tips!

[@jamescurtis6217]

A timely discovery of your beautiful and interesting video as I am shortly to visit Modena myself. You have shown much to whet my appetite, bravo!!!

Love how you immerse yourselves in a town to really get to know it thoroughly. We would be interested in knowing more about where you stayed while in Modena, grazie!

[@happygoluckytravel]

How fantastic that you might be going to Modena! We don't have a specific place to recommend but do suggest looking for accommodations just outside the historic ring, especially if you arrive by car.

Loved your video on Modena. We are travelling there later this year, and would love to visit the trattoria you featured where you were eating the gnocco fritto,, Can you please share the name of this place? Thank you,

[@happygoluckytravel]

Elio Park. Just outside the old city walls in the strip of public park. Also the Gnocco Fritto at Osteria Giusti are great. Have a great trip!

[@adhamhalabi8325]

lovely post , very informative and relevant. how do you recommend booking the tours ? appreciated

[@happygoluckytravel]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching. We just updated the description section of this video to include the links to the parmesan and vinegar tours. You can call or email them to reserve a tour. Have a great visit!

[@kimmosuominen3205]

I loved this video so much. Do have any succestions for visiting Modena, restaurants, bars or other pasta making places? I have to ask, where did you find that parmigiano-reggiano factory? jJust walk by or? I know that the region is known for that, but I would love to know more insight. Would like to know that balsamico factory also.

[@happygoluckytravel]

Thank you! We have two more Modena videos in our Tuscany playlist, if you haven't seen them yet : one covers restaurants, the other a tour of Modena. Cesare Modena is a great cocktail bar. Below are the links to the Parmesan and Balsamic tours. Have a great trip!!! See how parmesan cheese is made and do a tasting at Quatro 4 Madonna Dairy www.caseificio4madonne.it/en/ See how balsamic vinegar is made and do a tasting at Giusti giusti.it/en/museum/

Ottima summa mutinense... Lambrusco? Tigelle (che sarebbero le "crescentine"!), ciliegie, amaretti, castagne, sbrodolona, torta delle rose, ... sono buone anche le piadine seppur "furi zona". Venite a Modena ... e divertitevi. C'è anche tanta arte e musei molto belli ed interessanti.

[@happygoluckytravel]

Thank you for watching and adding some more great choices!

[@marcoamelio4299]

Le tigelle son tigelle, cotte in una piastra apposita, la crescentina è lo gnocco fritto.

[@simpafete]

@@marcoamelio4299 Sei serio o stai scherzando? :-) > ... si capisce che non sei di Modena. Scusa: lo gnocco fritto che comperi in bar a Modena è TONDO come le crescentine? Simpaticamente ... balugo

[@marcoamelio4299]

@@simpafete sono di bologna e lo gnocco e la crescentina (fritta) sono simili e in molti locali vengono chiamati in entrambi i modi. non credo si riferisca alla crescenta da forno che trovi al bar. quelle che intende il Signore credo che siano la versione che accoppiano con le tigelle visto che le ha nominate. In entrambi i casi che si tratti del prodotto da forno o no la tigella si chiama solo così.

[@simpafete]

@@marcoamelio4299 Credo che sarebbe utili imparare ad usare le parole in modo corretto e non come "vanghe per arare la terra" ... se no che si esprima in inglese se non riesce in italiano... ma potrei sbagliarmi. Comunque...tentavo solo di "precisare". Grazie

Can I ask how you got to the Vinegar and Cheese factories? Private tour?

[@happygoluckytravel]

Hi, We put the websites of the vinegar and cheese visits in the details section of the video description. We made reservations ahead of time and took the group tours, but no one else showed up for the vinegar tour so it felt private 😀

[@jeffhcb]

@@happygoluckytravel I assume you had a car?

[@happygoluckytravel]

Yes, we had a car as both are outside the city center. Giusti has a tasting room in Modena's center, but they don't make vinegar there. Enjoy your trip!

[@danielagolinelli706]

Siete molto bravi, ma vi prego scrivete e imparate a dirlo Parmigiano Reggiano e non parnesan!!

[@happygoluckytravel]

Thank you for the correction! We appreciate you!

[@AlexanderLittlebears]

In English it's called parmesan. Words often have translations.

[@alessandrobonucchi8137]

Please, don't say Parmesan Cheese. Say PARMIGIANO REGGIANO!!!!!!
