Tourist Information
- Food Tours (free tour): A funny walk through the ancient shops in the historical city centre. The presence of university students helped the opening of this kind of "shops" since the XIIIth Century. Also today along the narrow streets of the medieval town, some XIVth Century pubs are still very crowded. To buy the famous tortellini we suggest to go and visit one of the most famous food shop in Bologna: Tamburini shop and restaurant, Via Caprarie 1. Along the way you will find some very comfortable aperitif bars like "Il Calice" - Via Clavature, "Maxim" - Piazza della Mercanzia, "Rosa Rosae" - Via Clavature, or the oldest bar in Bologna "L'Osteria del Sole" - Vicolo Ranocchi
- Trambus Open: Trambus Open gives you the opportunity to discover the beauties, art, monuments and secrets of the wonderful city of Bologna from a new perspective. The service runs every day with innovative single deck topless buses. Highly qualified staff will welcome and assist you on board: an audio system in 8 languages will give you the main info about the sites along the itinerary.
