Hi, I’m Claudio, your local host in Bologna! What I love most about this city is how it brings together history, culture, and a lively community spirit. In my free time, I enjoy playing music in the streets, cycling through hidden neighborhoods, or jogging in the city’s beautiful parks. I also love exploring traditional restaurants, savoring local dishes, and enjoying aperitifs with friends at cozy spots around town. Bologna’s live music scene is another passion of mine, from small gigs to energetic concerts—it’s a big part of what makes this city so vibrant. Whether it’s discovering hidden corners on a bike ride, indulging in local flavors, or experiencing the city’s creative energy, I’ll make sure your visit feels personal, fun, and truly unforgettable. Let’s explore Bologna together!

The entirety of the experience was exactly what we had hoped for during our short stay in Bologna. Helped us get familiar with the area while teaching us about the history. Claudio gave us tips on the best places to eat for the more traditional Bolognese dishes and they definitely did not disappoint.

Claudio provided an excellent bespoke tour of the city, customized to our interests and pace. Very personable, charming and fun to chat with. So many things would have been missed if we were not with him. He was really knowledgeable about the city, the architecture, the history and the food scene. We tried many of his food recommendations and all were excellent. Highly recommend.
