Bologna Walking Tour for Foodies
Discover Bologna’s wealth of architectural and gastronomic specialties with your expert guide during this walking tour that starts in the city’s historical center.
Stroll through the famous porticoes built during the Middle Ages and gaze at the medieval towers that have characterized the city skyline for 800 years. Make your first stop in a traditional “bottega” filled with gourmet specialties where you will try locally produced chocolate from the Majani family. Next, stop at an artisanal pasta workshop where the local ladies still make the varieties by hand. Continue to the farmers market to learn about the freshest fruits and vegetables around and taste the famous filled pasta, “tortellini in brodo”. Gather other specialties like Mortadella, local cheeses, and Bolognese bread and take it to a true osteria (be prepared for a casual experience) where everyone brings their own picnic and enjoys it with the only thing sold onsite, the local wine! Lastly, enjoy a tasty gelato from one of the finest makers in Bologna to end your tour.
