VIDEO CALL Andrea

Ciao, I'm Andrea, your humorous and trustworthy host to the enchanting streets of Bologna. I'm absolutely captivated by this lively student city, especially its vibrant city centre, where every turn leads to a new discovery. I have a bit of a love affair with getting lost in Bologna's alleys, especially in Santo Stefano. Each street here tells a unique story, and I’m always eager to share them, peppered with a bit of humor. My open-minded and curious nature also draws me to every bookshop I can find. These are not just stores but treasure troves of knowledge and history, where I often lose track of time. As a self-proclaimed expert in Bologna's bookshops and the rich history of its city center, I can share insights and anecdotes that you won't find in guidebooks. Join me for an adventure through Bologna, where history, humor, and hidden gems blend into an unforgettable experience!

    We had a great time walking around Bologna. Andrea shared so much information and was nice enough to follow up our tour with some restaurant recommendations.
