History of Bologna

Bologna's 2,000-year history is fascinating, blending Etruscan, Roman, and medieval influences. Established by the Etruscans, it became a major Roman metropolis.

In 1088, Bologna founded the world's first university, a beacon of learning that still shines today. Walk around the historic center and absorb centuries of history. While the vast Piazza Maggiore whispers of public gatherings and old marketplaces, the Two Towers, Asinelli and Garisenda, remain as sentinels of the medieval power of the city.

Modern Bologna

Bologna, however, is not stuck in the past. This vibrant modern metropolis hums with innovation and life. Walk its porticoed streets, and you will find a mix of modernism and tradition. Modern boutiques coexist with centuries-old stores; tech companies flourish next to historic institutions.

The city's gastronomic expertise is legendary, earning it the nickname "La Grassa" (The Fat One). Dive into a plate of tagliatelle al ragù or indulge in mortadella, and you'll understand why.

Bologna also boasts an active cultural scene, from avant-garde art exhibitions to cutting-edge music festivals. A city where the past and present merge in a symphony of sights, sounds, and tastes as the artistic endeavors of the Renaissance carry on their own life.

Stop along the way

If you're driving from Split to Bologna, make time for some scenic stops. Explore Croatia's Krka National Park or Miramare Castle in Trieste, known for its white stone towers. These short deviations can make this journey a memorable part of your transfer.

Pack light and travel smartly

Navigating Italy's cobblestone streets might be difficult with bulky baggage. Pack light and choose a lightweight suitcase or a robust backpack. This will make it easier to get around.

Of course, if you're riding with Daytrip, you can pack whatever you want since your driver will drop you off at your final destination in Bologna and handle your luggage!

After you add in the time getting to and from the airport, 2 hours for check-in and security, and at least 30 minutes to get off the plane and get your luggage, the total travel time is more like 7-8 hours. About the same as a private car but with extra stress and hassle.

Explore Piazza Maggiore

Start your trip in Piazza Maggiore, Bologna's energetic center. Perfect for savoring the city's medieval charm, this busy square is surrounded by historic buildings such as the Basilica di San Petronio and Palazzo d'Accursio.

Many of the square's buildings, and the surrounding streets, are lined with porticos, which are the symbol of Bologna.

Climb the Asinelli Tower

Ascend the Asinelli Tower, one of Bologna's "Two Towers," for spectacular views of the city. It has 498 steps, so it can be a bit challenging, but the panoramic views at the top are well worth the effort. Gaze upon the red-tiled roofs and, on clear days, see the Alps and Apennine mountains in the distance.

Visit the Sanctuary of the Madonna of San Luca

Perched atop Colle della Guardia, the 12th-century Madonna di San Luca offers stunning views of Bologna. Part of the excitement is getting there; a portico with 666 arches stretches over 3.8 kilometers.

Inside the sanctuary, you'll see stunning frescoes and detailed embellishments. The trek may be a little strenuous, but the view and sense of achievement at the top make it worthwhile.
