Bologna For Curious Travellers

In this guide you'll find more than just places to visit (although there are more than 160 of them!); you will find a love letter to the city that I've been proud to call home for more than 8 years now. I wrote this guide thinking of how I usually show Bologna to friends who come to visit: hoping that they will fall in love with this city the same way I did all those years ago. And they always do, much to my joy!

The itinerary you'll find in this guide was designed so that you have the flexibility to tweak and twist it the way you want, adjusting it to your rhythm. You can follow it step-by-step or take it as a general guideline, finding numerous amazing stories and legends that this city is full of! Besides, you can find all of my handpicked recommendations, from small, family-owned bakeries to traditional restaurants, from veg-friendly places to incredible delis.

So grab this guide and start discovering this city and be prepared to fall irrevocably in love!

I found this to be an excellent, helpful guide. It is loaded with places to visit, eat and drink. Even though I had visited Bologna before, this guide gave me many new and lesser know places that I will be visiting on my return trip.

I’m Valeria, a passionate writer, travel blogger, and expat in Italy. My Italian story began most unexpectedly: what was supposed to be a gap year, learning a new language and doing an art course, has turned into 9 years and counting of living here. I call Florence home, but to be honest, I feel equally comfortable roaming the narrow streets of Venice, hiking around Lake Garda, visiting an art exhibition in Milan, or lazily sipping wine and watching the sunset in Monopoli. My love for this country brought me to create Dramatically Expatic, a YouTube channel and travel brand, to share Italy’s hidden spots, curiosities, and useful information with fellow Italy lovers.
