Experience tomorrow the best of
Bologna with Withlocals

"We’ve had very good tour guides before in terms of their knowledge, but I can’t recall someone who is as passionate about history and tho things he was telling us about as Riccardo. Highly recommend his tours. "

"Isadora is a native of Bologna. It is wonderful to learn about Bologna from someone who lives here. Her knowledge and passion for what she does is evident in the way talks about her city. I took a private three-hour walking tour of Bologna. Since I am staying her for a couple months, I wanted to know not only about its history but also how to get around and actually live in the city. Isadora showed me places to shop that the locals use, told me about pasta--where to buy it and the difference between handmade and machine made, told me the history of Bologna as we visited different historical sites, and made sure to answer all my questions about living here. She is interesting and informative. She takes her time to make sure you are getting everything you hope to know about her city. I had messaged her several times, and she was quick to respond. I definitely recommend Withlocals and specifically Isadora."

"Barbara was an excellent guide. An articulate, knowledgeable, and friendly lady. We had been to Bologna before, but with Barbara we learnt so much about the fascinating history and details of Bologna’s past. We were also taken to see places we would have missed had we been on our own. Barbara was an informative guide, and excellent city companion. I would recommend without hesitation."

"Mario is an excellent guide who provided us with fascinating information but also many useful tips about shopping and other activities"

"Excellent. Passionate about history and the city’s treasures! Loved the connections Barbara made to other cities and countries. Great educational tour! "

"We had a fantastic tour with Riccardo. Now I want to go back and spend more time in Bologna. When we make it back, we will hire him again to show us even more! "

"Margherita was such a nice guide who gave us an excelently curated tour of old Bologna. Extremely knowledgeable, nice and funny with lots of inside stories and good recommendations for lunch and other things. Highly recommendable!"

"Fantastic insightful tour that really introduced us to this great city… why so many porticos, colors., best appetitive places and all you need to know. Eletta really taught us a lot. "

"If you find Diego available as a guide to you in this area of Italy, take the opportunity to book him. I had the pleasure of taking his Culinary Kickstart tour and immediately saw his love for the city of Bologna and his deep knowledge of everything from fascinating historic facts to where to find the best piadini. While other tourists were following guides with little flags in huge groups, Diego reminds you of why you book With Locals. Personalized content, interesting stories, a walk through a beautiful city at your own pace along with insider info that serves the rest of your vacation. Diego is so warm, so fun, so friendly, and is the reason I continue to book with this company. Two thumbs up. Exceeded my (already high) expectations 👍🏽 "

"I was with Isadora on my first day in Bologna-she was fun, informative and we covered a lot of ground. I highly recommend to start your Bologna adventure with Isadora, it gives you an idea how to spend the rest of the time in the city and surrounding areas."
