Bologna Cultural and Culinary Exploration Tour

How do the Bolognese live, eat and drink? What are the main attractions of the city? Why does the view of San Luca make a Bolognese feel at home even if he is still on the street? All these questions will find the right answer in the tour designed to let you experience the city and all its secrets in the round: from morning until evening.
We start from Piazza del Nettuno, the meeting point of our tour, and then continue to Piazza Maggiore where you will admire the architectural and artistic grandeur of San Petronio. You will go to Piazza Galvani, where you will discover the secrets of the Archiginnasio. In Piazza Santo Stefano, the Bolognese lounge par excellence, you will get lost while discovering the 7 Churches. You will have lunch in the suggestive, and delicious, historic market, and then resume your tour full of energy to discover the Asinelli Tower, symbol of the city, and the breathtaking view that can be enjoyed from the Sanctuary of the Virgin of San Luca.
