We had an unforgettable time exploring Bologna and the surrounding Motor Valley during our culinary and cultural adventure. One of our favorite moments was a cooking class where we learned to make fresh tagliatelle; the kids loved getting their hands messy with dough. Our accommodations were cozy and charming, just what we needed after a day of excursions. If we had to nitpick, the schedule felt a bit rushed at times, especially when transitioning between activities. Overall, the blend of culture and cuisine made this trip a true delight for the whole family.
