Very special and unique look at Bologna

Published on Nov, 2024

Ricardo is full of information and passion for his city and its treasures. He speaks fluent English, is personable and really wants his clients to come away with more appreciation for the art and history of Bologna. If you are looking for the typical “walk from building to building “ with a little information, this may not be your tour. If you want to be immersed in special treasures and history of Bologna, Ricardo is the best!!

We took this tour on our first day in Bologna. We couldn’t have asked for a more informative, interesting, incredible day. Riccardo‘s wealth of knowledge of history, art, politics, and all the city’s treasures was incredible. The time flew by, and we were left with curiosity to learn more! At the end of the tour, we requested and he provided us with a long list of other attractions so that we have the next few days in the city planned out. He is a great ambassador of Bologna. Take this tour! Worth every Euro!
