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!

We hate wlking through a city with 10+ people. This was just us and that's what we were looking for.

Claudio was our host and guided us through an informative and enjoyable tour of Bologna. We found him attentive and accommodating to our interests as we walked through the city learning history, visiting cultural places and then enjoying the wonderful and unique food available there. As the tour concluded we agreed that we enjoyed our time with Claudio.

Exceptional. I cannot say enough about what a delightful tour this was, and how amazing Claudio was as our guide. He is responsive, flexible, and accommodating - pivoting to our interests and needs. More than that, he was kind and warm - like we were being guided by a family member. His wealth of knowledge and fun facts allowed us to explore many hidden gems and main historical sites. Would do it again in a heartbeat!
