The guide was very excellent and was able to adapt to our needs. Flexibility was appreciated. Viator’s communication was not so great

Very interesting tour with an extremely knowledgeable tour guide. She could not be stumped. A great experience for those interested in digging a little deeper into Bologna’s history as the oldest university town in Europe. Hands down the best tour we’ve taken.

No one can differentiate the university from the city and city from the university. They claim that this is the first European University and no wonder that is demonstrated by their university museum. Nice people, simple life but smokes a lot and in the afternoon the narrow streets (VIA) are of cigarette smell. Walk is the best in the city and i guess it is 2 x 2 km city. The European history is there.
