Live guides speak English, Spanish, Italian, and French.Is it for me?Book the 3-hour, 5-monument option if you want the full arc of Ravenna's mosaic story—the Baptistery with its Baptism of Christ and procession of Apostles adds context that the shorter route doesn't reach.

Bologna Food & Market Tour: Tastings, Pasta & WineA guided food tour through Bologna's Quadrilatero market district and oldest food shops, tasting regional cold cuts, handmade pasta, aged cheeses and local wines over two to three hours.

The small-group option works better if you're traveling solo or with one or two others and don't mind sharing the experience—it costs less and moves at the same pace through the same stops.
