Itinerary
About this trip
Embark on a 4-day round trip around Bologna. This itinerary is designed for couples, with a luxury budget, with a mix of food, so you can feel like you're travelling with a local rather than following a tour bus timetable. You'll move at a relaxed pace, with shorter travel hops, longer stops, and enough breathing room for slow mornings, scenic detours, and proper meals. Think of this as a ready-made framework rather than a script: each day suggests a clear path and one or two anchor experiences, but always leaves room for spontaneous detours, extra coffee stops, and the kind of small discoveries that make trips feel personal. Food-led luxury trip with markets, restaurants, hotel texture, booking windows, wine, and slow sensory days.
