Wow, where to begin? This is our first time in Bologna but Riccardo gave us such a fantastic tour and introduction of what the city has to offer that we only regret not having more time to explore its splendours. Brimming with knowledge and enthusiasm for the history of the region, art, music and food, this is such a unique tour that I would highly recommend to anyone whether it is their first time to the city or a repeat visitor wanting to delve deeper below the surface. Riccardo shared with us hidden gems and treasures that only locals know to enjoy. We can’t wait to be back for more.

Guide, Riccardo, was excellent. Kept a great pace for me & my husband
Very knowledgeable of his city & its history, of the art work & the artists, the food & its origins. Great mix of facts & history and kept us interested the entire time. Well worth the time & price.

Extremely informative tour of the historical center of Bologna. Good balance of history, culture and food. The passion of Ricardo for his city, art, architecture and its rich history came through. The pride and quality was evident. Good way to hit highlights of Bologna and to learn about its authentic food.

I highly recommend this tour for those who are interested to learn about the history of Bologna! I learned so much from the information that Riccardo shared about the history of Bologna (and its connection with other Italian cities and other countries) from the Roman times up to the present. This tour is like a peak into how the people of Bologna lived during different historical periods.

Our tour with Riccardo was incredible! We learned so much about the region’s art, food, and history throughout the day. We could tell right away that he was passionate and extremely knowledgeable on the region. This was the highlight of our 2 week Italy trip hands down. Riccardo is not just an excellent tour guide, he was an excellent person to spend the day with and talk to!

I Sapori Del Appennino Bolognese with Riccardo is a wonderful experience of flavors and culture! Riccardo’s profound knowledge and passion for the history of the region is what makes the tour unforgettable. Apparently this region and its history are in his DNA. The experience of the flavors, and seeing first hand the meticulous and careful production, for example, of parmigiano and salami, makes it clear why Italy is so beloved and considered the food capital of the world by so many. We would urge anyone wanting to learn more about this region of Italy and its flavors to book a tour with Riccardo. He is fluent in english and it is a comfortable and pleasant time being in his company.
