Worth his money - The "tasting" is misleading, there are only vouchers to remote stores to buy goods at reduced prices. The red bus ride was very good. Explanations and organization excellent. Seen this way, the trip was worth his money.

Just ok - Chaotic set up, very brief intro by the person who met us at the meeting point. We did one circle around town, and then they went on a break. Never hopped back on. Instead we walked across town to the 3 food spots we had received vouchers for. Ice cream was very good, so were small lasagna bites. Pizza place was very nice, close to a train station (we headed there next). We only came for a day, so it was fine, but to truly spend time and get to know the town, this was insufficient. Expect pre- recorded description of the buildings passing by, no context or extra information. Many of us were confused. There was a girl (guide?) on the bus, but she sat with the driver in a closed off space up front the whole time. Glad we did not spend much money here.

Average Red Bus Tour - Not really that intetresting. We found more about the history and sights of Bologna from the city square

San Luca line awesome - Great staff....although not sure why they mark stops on the route map as over 50% of them where not stopped at... Same with San Luca..great destination but no stops were made.. Web site is unrelable as it said all booked out for 3 days but when we enquired at the piazza site start/finish point... managed to secure tickets...not much point in having a web site if you dont keep it up to date, easy to follow...🤔

A foodie tour that is neither - The On/Off bus was a great deal. It only €16. But we paid over €36 for the 'foodie tour' which in the end was a.voucher for a local sandwich bar where you could only have a focaccia with Mortadella or mozzarella with a drink and an ice cream at a local gelateria. Just by the on/off ticket. The 'foodie tour' is not particularly foodie or a tour

It is a scam! - Just buy the double-decker bus tour, which is much cheaper than this “tour.” All they do is meet you near the bus, hand you your ticket for the bus, and a couple of vouchers for some “free” food items. Then they leave you! Don’t be scammed. If you want to do the double-decker bus tour - which I DO recommend - but it from the bus directly. We paid over double for a worthless food voucher.
