A Fun & Informative Culinary Experience
"We took this private tour on our first evening in Bologna so that we could take a deep dive into the local cuisine. Paolo was the perfect guide. He has curated an extremely well-rounded experience that truly showcases what this region offers - meats, cheeses, balsamic vinegar, pasta, pastry, and wines. Paolo is extremely knowledgable and incredibly passionate about his city and its amazing food. I highly recommend this experience. "

Perfect!
"We are so glad we booked a tour to see Bologna with a local! Super easy experience and good communication. Marco was a fabulous guide! He was kind, patient, knowledgeable, and knew all the good places to eat! He went above and beyond to help my son who has Celiac’s Disease find good places to eat with gluten free options. Our family made wonderful memories and got to see way more of the city with this tour. Highlights were the incredible gelato at the Cremeria Cavour and coffee treat. We tasted balsamic vinegars, and explored many of Bologna’s churches. Marco is a tremendous guide and we highly recommend booking one of his tours. Thank you, Marco!!!"

Awesome Food Tour!
"Luca was an amazing guide for the evening. He mixed expert knowledge of food and history of Balogna. We had an exceptional evening and enjoyed every stop. He is super charismatic and it is well worth your time to tour with him. He definitely introduced us to places we wouldn't have found otherwise. "

Great evening in Bologna!
"My friends and I had the best tasting experience! We enjoyed four lovely local wines tailored to our preferences in lovely and interesting local small wine bars and cafes paired with wonderful cheeses and snacks. We could not have had a better evening. Thank you Sarah for such a wonderful experience."

Amazing bites!!
"Giuseppe was an amazing good guide while we visited Bologna. He took us to places we likely wouldn't have found on our own and picked out incredible bites and wine for us along the way. This tour was focused on food which is exactly what we were hoping for. Definitely recommend doing this on your first full day so you can revisit any of the places he takes you to. And make sure to arrive hungry! Grazie mille, Giuseppe!"

Cool glimpse of Bologna
"We had a very short stopover in Bologna and Guiseppe was able to customize it perfectly to still give us delicious food options and share interesting stories about Bologna and himself."

Fantastic tour!
"Guiseppe was phenomenal! We squeezed in the tour to Bologna on our way to Venice from Ravenna ( after a cruise). Guiseppe was communicative, checking in a couple of days before to see when we would be arriving. We were going to be early and Guiseppe switched things around to accommodate our schedule. What an amazing experience! We ate so much and could not eat everything, but Giuseppe insisted we take the leftovers which turned out to be a welcome treat when we got to Venice. Thank you for a wonderful experience."
