Fantastic!! - We just arrived in Bologna and our guide met us at our lodging. Our walking tour was the best tour we had during this European vacation. He was so full of enthusiasm and shared so much beautiful history. He also helped us to find the perfect restaurant to end our day. Highly recommend!

Fantastic tour! - We had the best tour with Daniele! He is incredibly friendly and inviting. He showed us so many more sights than we would have been able to find on our own or by online searches. We loved that Daniele had so much pride for his home city and was genuinely excited to show us every corner. I would absolutely repeat a tour with Daniele and I recommend others to request him.

A wonderful way to experience Bologna even if you think you know it. - What a lovely discovery! Claudio was fantastic and showed and informed us about parts of Bologna that we would have never known about on our own including the beautiful university and the important part that it plays in everyday life in Bologna, walking along and learning about the Roman era main street of Bologna, the glorious food market where stalls are actually incorporated into buildings, visiting the Jewish quarter, and much much more. Thank you, Claudio!

New to Bologna - We were going to be in town for a month and asked for an introduction to the city center. Enjoyed the walking the history and some of the surprises Mirko showed us. Be sure to ask him about Galvani’s statue
