Took a tour with Stefanía and it was perfect! Perfect length, hit the highlights and taught me things I wouldn’t have known otherwise. Recommend doing this towards the beginning of your trip to Bologna but regardless, do it!
We did the tour with Stefania. She was cool and engaging. I really enjoyed my time and learned a lot of interesting things about the city. Highly recommend.
Excellent Tour – Informative and Well Paced A great tour around Bologna! The pacing was just right, allowing us to take in all the main sights without feeling rushed. I learnt so much about the city’s history, culture, and architecture—really brought Bologna to life. Highly recommend if you want a well-structured, informative, and enjoyable introduction to the city.
I had a great experience with Free Walking Tour Bologna! Our guide was very knowledgeable about Bologna's history and answered any questions the group had. She took us through the city's most significant sites and explained the significance, history and myths behind them, and also showed us two or three of the seven secrets of Bologna! It was a great tour to get to know the city; I would highly recommend!
I did a tour with Stefania and she was very friendly and fun. We went to various different spots and it felt like a very good all-round tour. I would highly recommend it as something to do at the start of your visit to Bologna, so later you can come back to some of the places to visit them in more detail.
