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.

Great tour!
We had a lovely afternoon with Giuseppe. He is very welcoming and warm, has a lot of knowledge and a very very generous man.
We ate soooo much and everything was delicious. He took us to places we wouldn’t have known otherwise.
I highly recommend!

Fabulous experience
My boyfriend and I had never visited Bologna. We chose to do a food tour because of Bologna’s reputation… and we booked the BEST! Giuseppe was kind, knowledgeable, friendly, and introduced us to food we would have overlooked otherwise that was simply delicious! We also had the privilege of sitting and enjoying a true Osteria. We wanted the traditional experience dating back centuries, and Giuseppe delivered! And we found a delicious new wine we hope to find back in the United States. Salud to Giuseppe and the incredible tour he provided.

You’ve got to book your tour with Paolo
Truly our favorite part of our Bologna trip. Paolo was incredible from his knowledge of history and cuisine to his friendliness with all those we met at each shop as well as his general, fun demeanor. We learned, we ate, we laughed. I couldn’t have asked for a better food tour or guide. Grazie, Paolo!
