Bologna is a city famous for its university, its rich cultural and social life, its well-preserved city centre, its cusine, the hospitality of its people; and yet it is off the traditional tourist track: this is why it is the ideal place for learning about genuine Italian life in a truly authentic setting.

Bologna, Italy, is the most important junction in Italy both for highway and for railway, owing its geographic location.
It's 50 minutes by train from Florence, 1.45 hour from Venice or Milan and 2.40 hour from Rome; furthermore, it has an international airport with daily flights to all major european capitals and New York.
