In the first of two parts, join Dr Jeni Ryde on this walking tour commencing right in the heart of Bologna. The capital of Emilia-Romagna, Bologna offers the visitor a wealth of artistic and architectural treasures, yet it remains relatively undiscovered by the tourist crowds.
Undoubtedly the symbol of the city, the Pizza Maggiore – still largely preserving its 15th century layout – is surrounded by palaces and the hulking Gothic Basilica of San Petronio, and Jeni takes us on a tour of the many curiosities and gems to be found here.
Jeni leads Academy Travel's 'Hidden Gems of Italy' tour in September 2025. More details via the links on our website.
