Ilaria was a great host/guide on this tour. She was very friendly and knowledgeable and took us to three venues. The first one in the student quarter was one we wouldn't have found on our own, but it was a great place to visit and had a good vibe. The second one was in a perfect location in the main square and the third we didn't stop at as such, but just got a small herbal digestif. It was an enjoyable 90 minutes.
Lorenzo was an awesome guide. He knew the history and made it fun to learn about. He was knowledgeable about the wines and spirits we sampled. Our group was small, and I had a great time sipping through Bologna with them. I would highly recommend this tour to start off a night on the town.
Ilaria was very knowledgeable and friendly and the tour was interesting and enjoyable, variety of venues from the student bar to the best seats in the main square ,

What an amazing experience and such a great way to see the city in a different way! Thank you Luca for an amazing tour! His knowledge and travel experience made the tour so incredible!
Great way to explore Bologna culture. We had amazing time. Valentina was very knowledgeable and gave insight to Bologna and the culture.
This “tour” took us to only 2 places, 1 hour each, so I wouldn’t exactly categorize it as a tour. There is no food or snacks offered so it’s only alcohol. So with a starting time of 8pm and a 10pm ending, you should be informed not to be hungry for this. Using social media to find your own “tour” is recommended!!!!
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the experience did not fully meet your expectations. As clearly described in the presentation of the experience, this is a Bologna by Night tour focused on drinks only, with no food included. The aim is to enjoy the city atmosphere in the evening while discovering local bars and cocktails, rather than a food tasting tour. We truly appreciate your comments and will keep them in mind as we continue to improve.
Eugênio was a very nice guide, lots of interesting facts about Bologna un particular and Italy in general. Good drinks as well!
