Touring
Bologna With A Rental Car by Fiona Hiliard
Bologna
Hotels / Emilia-Romagna
Self-Catering
Rolling vineyards, friendly
locals and a history that has spanned two millennia, it's easy to see why
Italy is regarded as one of Europe's best loved car hire touring destinations.
Renting a car in Italy makes sense. Car hire in Italy takes you to places
that public transport simply can't reach. Jaw-dropping scenery and tiny
tucked away villages await your discovery. The city of Bologna is an excellent
place to start your voyage of discovery through Italy. |
Located in northern Italy
in the Po Valley, Bologna is a city of quiet beauty that is probably most
famous for introducing the world to its mouth-watering Spaghetti Bolognese.
Bologna Airport Mini Guide:
Bologna Airport, also known
as Guglielmo Marconi Airport is located approximately 6km northwest of
Bologna, in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. The airport is a base for
a number of international carriers such as British Airways, Aer Lingus
and Iberia, as well as budget carriers like Ryanair and MyAir.
| Things To See/Do in Bologna:
Bologna has got to be one
of Italy's most under-rated cities. The city exudes its own unique charm
that is thoroughly different to anywhere else you'll visit in the country.
A wander through the history stained arcades is a great way to get a feel
for the city. Along the way you'll pass fascinating landmarks such as the
World War II commemorative display on piazza del Nettuno, the central meeting
square of Piazza Maggiore and the ornate Neptune Fountain. Bologna is one
of Italy's most progressive city and boasts the country's oldest university,
as well as the wonderfully absorbing Museo Civico Archelogico museum. One
of the simplest pleasures in Bologna is a stroll through the archways of
via dell' Archiginnasio. |

Here colourful, fragrant
food stores abound, it's definitely worth spending some time here sampling
the local goods, after all food is what makes Bologna tick.
Eating Out in Bologna:
Given Bologna's love affair
with butter and cream, it's easy to trace the origins of the city's 'La
Grassa' (the fat) nickname. Visitors to Bologna are spoilt for choice when
it comes to eating out. Some of the world's favourite Italian dishes were
born in Bologna and are definitely worth sampling while in town. Familiar
menu staples include lasagne, tortelloni in brodo (stuffed pasta parcels
in stock) and tagliatelle al' ragú.
Day Trips/Events in Bologna:
Bologna's location makes
it the ideal starting point for a range of exciting excursions. For a really
scenic Bologna car hire journey be sure to tour the picturesque Emilia
Romagna region, where Parma is just one of the tasty little towns you'll
stumble across. Alternatively, it's worth taking a journey across the rolling
Appenine Hills to south. Here the spa town of Poretta Terme is the place
to go for some well-deserved rest and relaxation.
Nowhere is the Italy's famous
Dolce Vite philosophy epitomised as much as in Bologna. The city certainly
has an events calendar to match its zest for life. Annual highlights include
March to October's Bologna festival and December's flashy Motor Show, when
the latest models of Ferrari, Lamborghini and Maserati are unveiled.
