Itinerary

  • Via dell'Indipendenza

    We begin our walk in Bologna on one of the most characteristic streets by discovering a fantastic aspect of the city: its very long porticoes!

    20 minutes

  • N/A

    Its name already evokes the allure of the sea and the power of a god. But this Bolognese square is much more than that: a true microcosm encompassing history, art, culture and even a dash of gossip!

    20 minutes

  • Piazza Maggiore

    We find ourselves in the renowned Piazza Maggiore, the beating heart of Bologna, the result of a long and gradual process of transformation over the centuries. This space was originally intended for people’s meetings and commercial activities, serving as a hub for the city’s social and economic life.

    30 minutes

  • Basilica Di San Petronio

    The majestic façade of the Basilica of San Petronio certainly does not go unnoticed, with its obvious unfinishedness that almost seems to indicate a knife slashing through it. Its history is shrouded in mystery with stories that mix reality and legend. Let's discover everything!

    20 minutes

  • N/A

    Just a stone’s throw from the main square of the city we find one of the most representative historical places of Bolognese culinary culture.

    20 minutes

  • Archiginnasio Di Bologna

    A beautiful library (unfortunately not visited by tourists) but also a fantastic anatomy room and other rooms that can be visited for 3€.

    30 minutes

  • Basilica - Santuario di Santo Stefano

    Also known as the “Seven Churches Complex” although it is difficult to say what the true origin of this nickname is. The most credited hypothesis goes back to the initial design. Let's discover everything!

    30 minutes

  • N/A

    Bologna is full of peculiar stories and I couldn’t help but tell you the one about the three arrows! Let's talk about a famous legend of the city!

    10 minutes

  • Le Due Torri Torre degli Asinell

    Also known as the Two Towers although they are not the same as those used in “Lord of the Rings” (sorry for the nerdy joke but I had to make it ) are an icon of the city and a must-see for anyone who visits. Unfortunately, they cannot be visited as the facilities are not safe for tourists. It is still worth seeing them up close!

    20 minutes

Bologna Walking Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

The tour is very easy to follow. We had 8 people and we enjoyed the tour. We definitely recommend it! Matteo was very helpful when I couldn't get the vouchers.

Walk in Bologna!

Published on Dec, 2024

Great walking tour in beautiful Bologna! Highly recommend Walking Cap and his easy to follow commentary. Use at your own pace.

Brilliant tour

Published on Nov, 2024

Great walking tour

Published on Oct, 2024

Excelent walking tour, easy to do it on your own rithm. We had a short stay în Bologna, therefore it was a great opportunity to learn history and funny facts.

Excellent guide, funny and factual - invaluable for a first time visitor.

Published on Oct, 2024

For a first trip to Bologna this audio tour was perfect for our needs. Interesting content, with great amusing anecdotes, along with detailed factual commentary. We could easily wander off the prescribed route when we saw something interesting and still pick up on the tour - completely to suit ourselves. E.g. the main piazza was rather busy and noisy when we arrived, so simply returned later. You can’t do that with a physical tour guide. We would warmly recommend this option, also excellent value for money.
