About
Bologna is known in the world for mainly 4 reasons: the towers, the porticos, the university and the food.
In this tour you will find out why did the porticos and the towers come to define the skyline of Bologna and how the oldest university of the western world was born exactly here in 1088.
You will discover that mortadella, our pride and joy, exists since Roman times and "spagnetti bolognese". . . . doesn't really exist.
Outstanding churches and palaces, beautiful squares and narrow alleys will be the frame for all these stories.
