Bologna Open Bus & San Luca Express Combo With Food Vouchers

We did this trip to get our bearings in the city. It was a good introduction. The little train gets busy so you need to confirm your time at the train stop. We didn’t know this and nearly missed out. The ice cream tasting voucher was delicious

Absolutely appalling and shocking experience- misinformation regarding ticket collections and times not properly described, pathetic communications, over subscribed, short changed on tasting vouchers A DEFINITE ONE TO MISS

When I purchased this tour, I informed the operator that my mother was traveling with me and was mobility impaired. They assured me that there was not much walking, and that the train and bus would be able to accommodate my mother when we arrived, we met the representative from the company and were eventually taken to the line for the Express train. As I was guiding my mother along with her cane, obviously having a difficult time of it, the company representative and the train assistant were trying to find a space for her to sit as the crowd of people quickly filled up all the cars in front of us. We eventually crammed her into a space next to two other women, and then I crammed myself right beside her, which was way too many people on that row. We discovered after we arrived at the top of the mountain, that there was a car at the end of the train that was specifically for people with mobility issues. We were not taken to that car and it was already full of people who seemed to be physically able when we arrived at the mountain top. It seems that the operator of a tour company like this would be aware of the last car being a mobility/impaired car that was easier to get in and out of. This was very aggravating to realize and also the area at the top of the mountain, where the train parked was a good distance away from the viewing area and the church that you could go and visit. So we just moved to the last car and sat in the mobility impaired car for the trip back down. My mother was so tired from the effort that we didn’t even bother to go on the rest of the tour and try the city bus or any of the food vouchers.

Relaxing and informative, the trip to beautiful San Luca was well worth it. From the top, we could see all of Bologna. The sanctuary is beautiful and spiritual.

Well narrated, easy to find,helpful staff good way to see the city without much walking. Food vouchers easy to use
