Ilaria has made our day in Bologna. Being very communicative, outgoing and knowledgeable she made Bologna accessible so one can feel and understand the spirit of the city and its people. Thank you Ilaria for all.

Ilaria is a wonderful, friendly and intelligent young woman who added a lovely dimension to our visit to Bologna. Her passion for this beautiful city was immediately evident and she communicated this in a very natural and friendly way. Highly recommended!!!

These kinds of tours always depends on the tour guide and our guide was solid. Our guide was Andrea and he did a great job of providing history, local insight and the ability to seamlessly have a conversation all throughout. It didn’t feel like a tour but just walking around with a friend. Good tour
