Historic Center Walking Tour in Bologna
Excellent intro to Bologna
Our guide was very knowledgeable. The tour encompassed many aspects of Bologna and within a good timeframe (2 hrs) for us. Especially appreciated the fact that it focused on a mix of history, education, religion, and the present people of Bologna.

Bologna Food Valley Small Group Factory Tasting and Winery Lunch
Really WORTH IT!!!
What a way to spend a day! We were all a bit skeptical at first, thinking it might be too "touristy and expensive", but this experience was far from ordinary. The whole group loved getting handson with the cheesemaking process, and learning about the balsamic vinegar was surprisingly captivating. The Lambrusco tasting in the historical cellar felt like something out of a movie, and the food at the end, let's just say we ate like royalty. From start to finish, this tour was packed with surprises and tons of laughs. Perfect for a group of friends looking for a unique, fun experience! Last note, expensive? Really WORTH IT!!!
