Factory-type tours in Italy?
I love watching how things are made, be it pottery, pasta or car parts. I have a series of meetings in Rome in early June, with random 2 and 3 day gaps between them. I'm looking for something unusual to do, like factory tours, that is within about a 3 hr train trip from Rome. A friend already suggested visiting Perugia (chocolate) and Deruta (ceramics), other suggestions?
