Brilliant on foot food tour of Bologna ! - We had a fantastic, leisurely tour with our knowledgable tour host, Mattia. It was a great way to see and appreciate beautiful Bologna with its amazing food and culture. It was a great fun way to spend a few hours. Mattia was lovely and the small group was perfect. The food, wine and coffee were delicious. We would highly recommend. Mattia - you are DOP!

We were absolutely thrilled with our experience and would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone who is hungry for the culture and cuisine of Bologna! Our guide, Mattia, was incredibly knowledgable, insiteful, and FUN! We felt like we had our own little window in to the real Bolognese lifestyle and history and each delicious stop along our way showcased the unique aspects of Bologna and Emilia Romagna.

Top class & authentic local food & wine tasting tour - Very informative tour covering both the history & sights of Bologna as well as the food. Great food stops in traditional venues with plenty of top class food & wine. Mattia was an enthusiastic tour guide & treated us like a small group of friends as he conducted us round is favourite spots. The tour may look expensive but is excellent value for money given the amount & quality of the food & drink we consumed as well of course as Mattia's time & energy.

Fantastic food tour - Food gave an excellent overview of what Bologna has to offer with lots of explanation about the origins and production of each item. Mattia also told us stories about the local history/culture as we walked round Bologna - we both had a great time and would recommend!
