The tour starts near Piazza Maggiore, where you'll meet the guide. Together, you'll make your way to the heart of the square, where the guide will provide an initial introduction to the city and the significance of what surrounds this square.
The Basilica of San Petronio stands as one of Bologna's most important churches. Upon entering, the guide will showcase its intricate frescoes and delve into its history.
Situated inside the Archiginnasio of Bologna, the Anatomical Theatre is a breathtakingly iconic site that symbolizes the city's importance throughout Italian history.
The market district is one of the liveliest areas of the city and a favorite among locals for everyday shopping. Wandering through these streets will surely make your mouth water!
Bologna is renowned as the city of towers, and the two towers stand as its symbol. They are impossible to miss while in Bologna!
The square of Santo Stefano is famed for its 7 churches, forming a marvelous architectural complex waiting to be discovered.
The guide will accompany you to the entrance of the Clock Tower. You'll ascend independently to the top to enjoy the panoramic view from above.
Marghrita did a great job explaining the history of Bologna as well as the various locations that we visited. The tower sky view was excellent, but watch those narrow steps on the way up.
Our tour with Linda was wonderful! She was very knowledgeable and engaging. We knew very little about this city prior to our tour. But Linda changed that! We toured Piazza Maggiore, Basilica Petronio, walked the porticos, Palazzo del Archignnasio, bell tower, etc. Highly recommend this tour if you are interested in learning about the history of Bologna!
A very nice way to get introduced to the city. Mario was a very good tour guide. Perfectly paced with very good communication.
A great experience. Just the right amount of time. Mikaela provided great information with a little humour and was very easy to understand. A very good way of experiencing a small amount of the historic of the city centre, then exploring on your own.
It is a moderate walking tour and our guide was excellent and not boring at all. I forgot her name but she’s the best guide we’ve had so far.
This was an excellent walking tour with an informative, engaging and humorous guide. I would highly recommend it.
Benedicta was very knowledgeable about the area and the sights. It was a very informative tour and enjoyable.
Perfect tour of the academy. Its not very large, so a short and sweet tour like this gives plenty of context and information surrounding the David and other pieces in the gallery. Antonio was excellent! Without a guide for this it would have felt a bit shallow, walk in, find David, picture, leave. Would definitely suggested a guide to give some history.
Fantastic experience, I learned so much about Bologna!! Joseppa had so much knowledge of the city, was so patient with my questions, and added a little humor along the way!
Fabulous! The guide Maria was fantastic! Very knowledgeable and dedicated. Excellent tour. I highly recommend it!
Mario gave us a really informative history tour of Bologna covering many of the recommended sights. Would highly recommend.
Vanessa our tour guide was very knowledgeable and accommodating. She knew her stuff and more. She made our tour experience exciting even though History is a boring subject.
Great tour. Our guide Giuseppe was great. Really interesting and we could learn a lot about Bologna history.
The guide was well organized in her presentation and her English was excellent. We enjoyed that she answered all the questions the group had too. Great introduction to the city.
Maria was a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable of the local area and history of Bologna. Only downside was that my wife had her shoulders out so couldn’t go into the basilica, I’d suggest informing people who book of this, ahead of the tour.
Our guide was a very nice gentleman but really did not enjoy this tour. Had a very hard time hearing and understanding our guide. I left the tour not knowing much more about Bologna than when we started.
We had a nice surprise when we met our guide as it was just the guide and the two of us. Our guide was Michela and she was amazing. Very friendly as well as being very knowledgeable. Well worth the money and I would definitely recommend this tour.
Vanessa was fantastic- very knowledgeable and a great storyteller- her passion for the city shone through. Very kind to take various photos for me too, I thoroughly enjoyed my tour. Thank you
Vanessa was a fantastic guide. She took her time and taught me so much of the history. I highly recommend.
Really nice and well preserved, stunning views over nologna, great booking Service and the guys on site.
We toured with a guided free walking tour the whole building, it is a place where the life of the commune takes place, since there the Commons works. You can climb the tower and it is recommended to do it in the afternoon as the location of the sun allows us to take better photos of the whole city.
