Stop!! Look no further!!
"My wife and I have traveled the world and have had many guides help us, but Riccardo is one of the best we have ever had. His passion and love for the city is unmatched. His in-depth knowledge of the history, locations and details was phenomenal. He is open to customizing the tours to what you want to see or do. I would also add that he goes above and beyond the help and assistance I have ever experienced with any guide. You will be thrilled you had him for a guide and would enlist his services again in a heartbeat. We would give more than 10 Stars if we could!"

Awesome tour guide and tour!
"Had the most wonderful time touring with Sarah. She is very knowledgeable about the history of Ducati and Bologna, and knows all the great places to go for great food and especially cheese! Very highly recommended and will definitely see her again next time we are in town!"

A ++ Tour and Tasting
"Luca first gave us a background and orientation to Bologna. Then as we walked through the city tasting various treats, Luca shared info about the city layout, important sites and stories about each site. He shared information about each food we tried. Luca slso suggested sites for us to visit on our own and what days are best to visit. Based on our interests, Luca also recommended restaurants and communes to visit outside of the city. Extremely thorough review of Bologna and it's food! Highly recommend! "

(Food)Storyteller
"Luca is a great storyteller, he knows as much from food and his city Bologna. We loved the combination of history and food on our first day (with a real local guide). It makes us feel home. Thank you Luca for the amazing kickoff."

Perfect way to experience Bologna
"We highly recommend Giuseppe's food tour in Bologna. What a treat to benefit from Giuseppes experience in the culinary world of Bologna. His knowledge of the city and its food was so interesting and the food tastings were fantastic! He also happens to be a wonderfully sweet man. Come very hungry as you will leave very full!!"

A food tour with Marco is AMAZING!
"Anyone wanting to learn all about the foods of Bologna should just take a tour with Marco! My family and I really enjoyed our tour with him. All the food we had was delicious— we can’t get over the onions and balsamic vinegar dish. Amazing taste :). It was fun to see how everyone we saw welcomed him with such enthusiasm. Marco himself was so much fun to be around!!"

Magical Bologna Food and Wine Tour
"We had a lovely time with Sarah. It was nice to converse with her on a variety of topics about the area as the tour was just my wife and me. The wine and food she chose for the tour were excellent and amazing quality - we'll certainly be locating some Pignoletto!"

Great day
"We really enjoyed hanging out with Giuseppe in Bologna. He was such a kind man who was extremely welcoming and eager to show us a nice time. We highly recommend. We did a private tour with just my wife and I. It was more expensive that other advertised group tours, but the private experience was really nice and worth the extra cost. We booked the night before and Giuseppe accepted -- that responsiveness was also really appreciated. Be sure to show up to the tour hungry because it's a lot of food! "
