13 tours · €25–€167 per person · ★ 4.8
We read every listing behind this Bologna walking tour page and kept 13 tours rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €25 per person for a historic centre walk to €167 for a private highlights tour. A Bologna guided walking tour takes you around the sights with a guide, while the electric bike ride pairs exploring on wheels with an aperitif and tastings, with bike rental included.
A quick way to choose: the basic historic centre walk excludes monument and museum entry, so it suits a look around the city rather than visits inside. The Bologna city tour with optional Archiginnasio access does not enter the palace on Sundays. For a Bologna bike tour, check the physical requirements: the electric bike ride calls for moderate fitness. The best reviewed Bologna walking tours come first below.

Historic Center Walking Tour (4.95 from 37 reviews; €25 per person) prices a shared option; its private option is separately priced. The private flag and headline price can describe different options, so they do not establish a private booking price.

The e-bike route includes San Luca and parks and requires moderate fitness. Aggregate figures cover 13 walks and rides together, not a separate sample of tours on foot.
For a stroller, start with the marked short options: 9 of 13 listings carry the kids flag. Wheelchair access is operator marked on 8 of 13; a ride does not prove access. The kids flag means strollers and infants, not suitability for every child. Wheelchair access is operator marked on 4 of 7 shared and 4 of 6 private listings. Best of Bologna in One Day (4.95 from 41 reviews; €145 per person) is a full day on foot. Other products have several duration options; a short option or vehicle does not guarantee an accessible route. Filter first, then confirm access and child requirements with the operator.
