Hi..we will be in Bologna for one day...a day tour from our agriturismo near Florence. My husband wants to do the Ducati tour in the morning and I want to do a food walking tour in the afternoon.

Here's a website on food tours of Bologna http://www.slowtrav.com/italy/notes/food/ck_bologna.htmTo have time for your food tour in the afternoon, your husband will have to book a Ducati tour that does not also include Ferrari and Lamborghini. I haven't done those tours and can't make a recommendation.Rick doesn't describe Bologna in detail. Here's a website http://goeurope.about.com/od/bologna/ss/bologna_pics.htmHere's a link to a prior discussion here last year http://www.ricksteves.com/graffiti/helpline/index.cfm/rurl/topic/17362/bologna.html.Restaurant tip: Da Bertino is an old-fashioned traditional trattoria with a loyal local following, which I believe was enjoyed recently by Ron, the Helpline's "Rome correspondent."Not to miss cultural sights (you may not have the time):
the Maesta by Cimabue in Santa Maria dei Servi
the Torre PendentiBasilica di Santo Stefano
