Amazing!
The tour with Guiseppe was wonderful. We met at a market where he took us to various shops where he purchased food and wine for us to taste. He explained what each item was and how it was prepared. As they say, “he knew his stuff”! And we were stuffed by the end of the tour. I would definitely recommend doing a tour with him.

Giuseppe’s food tour was amazing!
We had Giuseppe as our local tour guide and he was perfect! The passion he has for the foods of Bologna really shines through and made everything come to life for us. Everything we tried was delicious. Absolutely loved going to the Osteria and have wine while eating what was bought for us to try. The gelato at the end was delicious.
