Happy and Full! - We had an incredible private tour with Isadora on our quick trip to Bologna. She was fun and extremely knowledgeable as a native of the city. We got to see behind the scenes and go to some locations I don't think we would have noticed otherwise. Everything felt so authentic and original which really added to the charm of the city. She was so friendly with all of the shop owners which made us feel welcomed in every place we visited.
She not only knew a lot about the city but she seemed really passionate about sharing the history of the food and the culture with us. It truly made the experience wonderful for us and I took away lots of new information as well as a full stomach :-)
Pro Tip: Get the drinks upgrade! It's worth it and so much fun.

Great Experience - We did a customized Bologna highlights and mini food tour with Isadora. Was a great experience - Isadora not only gave us a great feel for the history and culture of the city but we were also able to taste some of the foods that Bologna is known for. Highly recommended!
