What a location!
This was a lovely experience, the setting was amazing, the wine was fab and it was great to have one of the family members tell us about this vineyard. It would have been great to stay a while longer and enjoy the views over another bottle of wine which we would have been more than happy to buy. Getting a taxi was a little problematic, but we sighted it in the end

Vineyard Tour
Excellent wine tasting experience in a beautiful location. Building is from the 1400s, where the family has been producing wine since that time. Every glass we tried was excellent. Maria was a knowledgeable and accommodating host, and Pepo was a great addition. Would highly recommend.

Great way to spend the mid-morning!
Great experience, Maria was so friendly. Generous pours of delicious wine, with some snacks. Easy to get to from Bologna

Cancelled !!!!!!!!
Long story but will make it brief . On way to venue the taxi driver called to find out directions, lady wanted to speak to me as she had been trying to contact me as the event was cancelled, her daughter was sick . I sympathised and she explained I would be refunded.Taxi took us back to hotel costing 90euros round trip . Then she messaged again and explained she had tried to contact the wrong person to cancel , had she contacted me then We wouldn’t be 90euros out of pocket and a wasted morning on our Anniversary. I have since contacted her twice but no reply . Hence the poor review . Very disappointed

Personalized Private Tour
You can't get more personal than touring a ancient wine making estate with an owner/ family member. One of the oldest producers in Bologna, you won't be disappointed with the history, views, and wine. Simply delicious! Take a taxi to get there from Bologna. The estate will call one for your journey back to Bologna.

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Montevecchio Isolani wine tasting experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bologna.
How much does Montevecchio Isolani wine tasting experience cost?
+
Prices start at $57 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bologna usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Montevecchio Isolani wine tasting experience take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bologna is not rushed.
Is Montevecchio Isolani wine tasting experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bologna, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Montevecchio Isolani wine tasting experience?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Montevecchio Isolani wine tasting experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Montevecchio Isolani wine tasting experience?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bologna can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bologna and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Montevecchio Isolani wine tasting experience start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bologna within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bologna?
+
On Outty we rank every Bologna experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Bologna Local Pasta Cooking Class, Ragu, Spritz, Wine & Gelato, Bologna Food Experience: Factory tours & Lunch By Italian Days, Small Group Bologna Food Tour – Local Food & Market Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bologna?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bologna?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
