Bologna Essentials Private Walking Tour with Local Guide

OVERVIEW

Where pasta simmers with revolution and arches echo with student voices Bologna doesn’t whisper it declares.

This is a city where radical ideas are stirred into every bowl of tagliatelle, and porticoes remember centuries of student marches, poets, and philosophers. On this immersive walking tour, you’ll explore Europe’s oldest university, witness the layered history of resistance and Renaissance, and taste the culinary traditions that keep Bolognese culture alive. From graffiti-covered alleyways to grand basilicas, Bologna challenges, nourishes, and inspires. Come for the pasta stay for the paradoxes.
