Itinerary

1. 1

   Bologna

   2h

   In the morning, meet your guide at Milan Central Station and reach Bologna after just a 1-hour train journey. Once in Bologna the best thing you can do in the centre of the Old Town is to put on your most comfortable walking shoes and traverse the narrow streets. Once in Bologna, your guide shows you the heart of the city, home to The Porticos of Bologna, Bologna Piazza Maggiore, Two Towers (Due Torri), and the Bologna University Quarter. Bologna is a medieval city, with so much hidden beneath it and within the walls of the beautiful buildings. Bologna is a place where doing some research ahead of your visit will expose so much more than if you just read the popular guides or winged it. On one side of Piazza Maggiore sits the imposing building of the Salaborsa Library. Previously the city’s economic lifeblood, today it houses an incredible library. As one of the key meeting points in Bologna, its multi-stories are always abuzz with people.

2. 2

   Piazza Maggiore

   2h

   After a quick stroll stop for a food and wine tasting. You'll try the famous gnocco fritto (salty fried bread) served with Italian salumi and cheese. Your guide explains the history of these traditional dishes. Taste the flavor of the authentic regional wine and spend unforgivable moments in a typical trattoria.

3. 3

   Le Due Torri Torre degli Asinell

   2h

   The afternoon is dedicated to visiting the beauties of the city with some free time for shopping. Before taking the train to Milan, you'll taste of a small piece of chocolate in one of the most famous chocolate factories in the city.
