Start with a food tour for local dishes; allow about 3 hours. Choose a class to make pasta yourself, or a city walk for sightseeing. Food tours: 21, median €84 per person as listed. Classes: 16, median 3 hours, at €89. The walking and bike collection has 13 listings. Food and Market Tour with Local Dishes (4.95 from 1,734 reviews; €60 per person); its starting price is the Express option, not every menu and duration.
Choose the Food Valley for Parmigiano and balsamic tastings at the producers, the Motor Valley for the Ferrari and Lamborghini museums. Both eat a full day: median 7 hours and 8 hours. The Food Valley collection has 7 listings, median €159 per person as listed. Motor Valley has 5, median €440. Food Valley prices start at €39, but that is the balsamic lunch in Modena, with travel from Bologna arranged separately. Some food days start in Parma or Reggio Emilia. Museum entry, lunch and hotel pickup depend on the selected tour and option.
Budget €95 per person as listed for this catalogue and €263 for its day trip selection. These are starting prices; departure and transport depend on the option. Across 60 listings, the median is €95 per person as listed, with the middle half at €66 to €151. The day trip subset used here has 12 listings, median €263; it is not an exhaustive count of producer trips. Pasta and Tiramisu Class with Wine (4.94 from 984 reviews; €59 per person) is an example of a class in Bologna. A regional visit can require separate travel to its starting point.
For a couple, start with shared tours at a median €85 per person as listed. Choose private for your own party; a shared starting price on a private flagged card is not a private quote. 22 of 60 listings are marked private and 38 shared. Their median card prices, €113 and €85 per person, are a spread between different products, not a premium. Some private flagged listings start with a shared option, so the first median is not a median of private option prices. Rates and minimum parties depend on the option. The Private Tours collection has 16 listings, a different set from all products marked private.
Plan a meeting point unless your booking includes pickup: 13 of 60 listings carry the hotel pickup flag. For English, choose an English departure. Hotel pickup is flagged on 13 of 60 listings. A flag can cover an optional transfer, and a walking guide may meet you at your accommodation without a vehicle. English is listed on tours across the catalogue, but not on every listing. Use the language and pickup filters, then confirm the selected option and pickup address with the operator.
