As soon as you approach Bologna Airport you will begin to feel the legacy that this ancient city bears. Founded in 534 BCE, Bologna has weathered the ages well. The modern city has actively preserved its heritage and so visitors can walk through authentic Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque neighbourhoods and see the artistic work of these ages. The sights are many, and not all in the historical core of the city. To make travelling easier the airport offers a variety of car hire services to give tourists the freedom to create unique itineraries each time they come.

Travel through the modern day markets and regions of Bologna, or park and explore the historical centre of this ancient city on foot. While you are in Bologna, stop by the Alma Mater Studiorum – the Western world’s oldest university. Or visit the Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca, just outside the city and see the work of many master artists. Most notable among the works is Luke the Evangelist’s “Madonna with Child.”

Whatever you want to see, or however you want to experience Bologna, the best way is to have your own car hired. It will allow you to quickly navigate from one attraction to the next and give you the freedom to stay as long or short a time as you want. With tours, you are held to the schedule of your guide, why would you want that? Don’t you get enough of that in your daily life? A vacation should be about getting away from responsibilities and just enjoying yourself at your own pace.
