A Taste of Bologna

What a fantastic way to get introduced to Bologna, through food and history. We made four stops throughout the old town for way larger than expected dishes - definitely a full meal. We sampled tortellini, tagliatelle, tigella, and ⁠cotoletta. We walked, learned amazing stories, and interesting history by our fantastic guide Valentina G. She was personable, professional, informed, and delightful. She gave great tips and recommendations and brought the dishes to life with stories and images from her family! Highly recommend!

Bologna food and wine tour 😍

We had one night in beautiful Bologna and this food tour was exactly what we wanted. Our tour took us to small stores and the market area.

Ferrari Lamborghini Pagani Factories and Museums - Tour from Bologna

Lisa_G, Jun 2026

A great tour for car enthusiasts!

This was a very cool experience. Being able to see the current production line and museums for Lamborghini and Pagani was incredible. Ferrari fell a little flat since there is no guide for the museum, but it was still a good experience seeing their F1 cars and other museum pieces. And there was an opportunity to sit in a Ferrari. Lunch was absolutely delicious. The group was a good size and the mini bus was nice. This tour is a must for car enthusiasts - just getting to see some of the most rare and unique cars in the world was incredible. I am not a car enthusiast but I was traveling with one and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour, as did he.

Do This Tour!!!!! 100 Stars

This trip/ tour was worth every single penny. Luca picked us up and we stopped at a parmesean cheese farm and saw how it was made. Our next stop was a meat factory with so much prosciutto. We got to eat a variety of different meat & drink Lambrusco! Our last stop was my favorite - a balsamic vinegar farm. This tour was perfect - probably my favorite thing I’ve ever done.

This tour was a highlight...

This tour was a highlight of our trip! Our guide Stefi was so friendly and helpful, giving all participants tips about the best places to see and eat. The link provided for where to meet in the morning unfortunately did not work for us leading to some confusion on our end, but Stefi reached out to us to make sure we made it there for the tour which was so appreciated! The entire experience from start to finish was fantastic- from the food, drinks, views and the company- I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area!
