Cristiano, our certified/licensed tour guide, was wonderful. He met us at our hotel, and we set out on our three-hour walking tour. He provided lots of insights into the city's history and landmarks, while also explaining what it's like to live in Bologna today. Cristiano's English skills are also terrific, so it was very easy to communicate with him during the tour and ask him lots of questions. Since we had limited time in Bologna, this was a great way to see the main sites in the historic city center.
Show moreWe took a walking tour today with Andrea from City Unscripted, and every moment of it was educational and fabulous. Among the many places we visited, we saw the Arcgiginnasio di Bologna, which housed the oldest university in Europe with studies of law or philosophy; the statue of Neptune that is PG13 from one view, but R from the side; the Biblioteca Salaborsa that sits atop Roman ruins; and later we worshipped at both two churches and at the church of mortadella
