The construction of the palace traces its origins back to the 14th century, and it historically served as the epicenter for the city's economic and commercial activities.

Federica was an amazing guide! As a solo traveller with allergies, I felt so welcome and completely at ease. She took great care to make sure I could enjoy every stop safely, and her passion for the local food and culture really shone through. The tour was well-paced, full of delicious tastings, and a wonderful way to experience the city. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting!

Claire was just the best. Charming, chatty, witty, hilarious, beautiful and really showed me a great time. The group was a manageable size and fun. You can tell Claire has a great rapport with a lot of businesses in town, and really gave us the works: small anthropological sound bites, digestible tidbits of history, a soupçon of cultural information and a god-sized amount of food and wine everywhere we went. She also speaks multiple romances languages and English fluently which is impressive. I have two highlights- the pasta lesson and the Osteria which blew my mind-and I won’t tell you why, just sign up and take this experience.

Excellent guide, information, stops and food! The tour was the highlight of our stay in Bologna. Now I know I like Mortadella! Plus, the stop at the oldest bar in Bologna was memorable. We were served a great spread, drinks, and history. This tour is a must-do!

Mattia was a terrific guide. He was thoroughly knowledgeable about the food, culture and history of Bologna, friendly, engaging, informative and spoke excellent English. He was passionate about the city and its food and even shared two recipes with us, one of why was his great grandmother’s. We had a wide variety of great local food and wines. A superb way to spend four hours, even though it rained throughout.
