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!

Amazing food tour with small group - This small group tour was a highlight of our vacation. The tour lasted 4-5 hours and we stopped at 5+ places for food and/or wine. There were only 8 others in our tour group and it really made for a personal experience. We saw other tour groups with 20-30 people and I can't imagine they had as good an experience as we did. Mattia was amazing! We sampled so many different types of food, and he educated us on Bologna, food, the culture and provided helpful tips on the Italian language and geography. I would totally recommend this tour!
