Wonderful Tour of Bologna’s Foods! - Our guide (Bennedatta) was wonderful. Knowledgeable, friendly and entertaining. She showed us all the things we wanted to see - markets, little independent shops and even done landmarks. The foods she chose for us to taste were delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and will definitely recommend to others.

Do yourself a favor and book this food tour! - Grazie Ela ! Wonderful food tour in Bolognia, making us discover meaningful markets and restaurants that we wouldn't have found by ourselves. Peppered with history, architecture and geography, the experience went by so fast because we were enjoying ourselves. Ela is knowledgeable, genuine and has a great sense of humor. Devour tours never seem to disappoint !
