A good way to know about the Bolonia typical food . Paolo gave us a lot of information walking around the city, some of history as well

Luca gave us an excellent tour of Bologna and lots of insight into its food culture. He is very knowledgeable and personable. If you’re looking to experience the city and its unique food, including some of the best gelato I’ve ever had — take this tour with Luca.

We had a great experience with Marco and appreciated his knowledge of the regional food his and connections to the local food merchants. We had several tastings in the Central Market followed by more out and about in the city. It was delightful!

Giuseppe was thoughtful & a very knowledgeable host on our food tour. We enjoyed learning about the local food and traditions of Bologna as well as food & drink customs in other regions. He was friendly & made you feel very welcome. Great idea to do on the first day, as it introduced us to Bologna, the typical food, walking around the Piazza Maggiore, and areas it helped introduce Bologna to us. Mom, 18 yr son & 23 yr daughter. They loved it!!

Paolo was an incredible guide who is truly passionate about both the history and preservation of the food in Bologna. We had only one day to explore and this tour gave us a wonderful taste of his beautiful city. He encouraged questions and left us with a list of recommendations .

kelley_l

It was interesting at first but became a amazing experience that I’m glad we had. He was knowledgeable about the food and the city.

Luca met us at the time we'd designated and gave us a short history of Bologna before taking us around the historical center to see the amazing towers, porticos and Churches of the city. He took us several places to taste a little bit of everything from balsamic vinegar to gelato --we could barely move by the end of the evening! Luca is a great conversationalist and it felt like having dinner with a friend.

We learnt a lot about the history of Bologna and the unique food that the city offers. The tour of the Seven Sisters church was also a highlight. Unfortunately our guide was running late due to an overrun on his previous tour and seemed under enormous pressure throughout the tour. Perhaps that is why we not tasted 3 foods instead of the advertised 6 foods.

Hermes was so good. He was very personable and knowledgeable. We got to try a lot of the must have bologna foods! We also saw some interesting places!
