This “tour” took us to only 2 places, 1 hour each, so I wouldn’t exactly categorize it as a tour. There is no food or snacks offered so it’s only alcohol. So with a starting time of 8pm and a 10pm ending, you should be informed not to be hungry for this. Using social media to find your own “tour” is recommended!!!!

What a great way to find out about Bologna! We booked for our first night so that we could get to know more about Bologna, it’s history and places to see. We were the only two on the tour and so felt special talking with our guides Luca and Marina. They were so knowledgeable of the history of the city and took us to great places and suggested bars and restaurants for us to visit. We called into three bars for some drinks and had a very warm welcome and so went back here during our three night stay. If you’re looking for a good night and to get to know Bologna, we would definitely recommend this tour. Grazie mille

It is an opportunity to see an area that someone over 50 wouldn’t normally be interested in. It is where the students hang out and authentic but wasn’t really my thing. Glad I did it. Guide was wonderful
