Margarita was an exceptional guide, providing potted histories and interesting and funny stories about all the sites. She went at our pace, answering all our questions, and we gained a good insight into the amazingly complicated history of this lovely town. She spoke excellent English and the 2 hour tour went by far too quickly! If you can, get onto this tour. We went on our first day in Bologna and were able to pick places from our tour that we wanted to see again. Very useful!

An excellent introduction on our first visit to Bologna. We were staying for a few days so we received several very good pointers to places we wanted to revisit in more depth. However even if we had only been there for a day or so, this tour would have given us a superb "feel" for the city and its history.

I was welcomed to the fountain of Neptune by the contact person who then accompanied me to the info point from where the visit went, with the people who had booked through another way. The visit remained within a fairly tight perimeter, 5 or 6 points were discussed (all near point i) and very thorough. It's a good visit for people who do not really want to walk. I would have preferred a more global tour of the city with explanations of the architecture and lifestyle that the locals could have had. A little disappointed because it is not personally what I expected.
