Selected pickup city: Bologna
Bologna sits at a crossroads in Emilia-Romagna, and a car makes sense here for reaching the food towns of the region — Modena, Parma, Ravenna — that make this area one of Italy's best for a driving-focused trip. The historic center itself, with its arcaded streets, is dense and better suited to walking.
Bologna's porticoes and the medieval towers (Le Due Torri) anchor the historic center, all walkable once parked outside the restricted zone. The Ferrari and Lamborghini museums near Modena, about 40 minutes west, draw a different kind of visitor and are a common day trip from the city.
West toward Modena and Parma covers Emilia-Romagna's food heartland — balsamic vinegar producers near Modena, Parmigiano Reggiano dairies near Parma — in under an hour each. East toward Ravenna, about an hour and a half, brings a change of pace with its Byzantine mosaics.
Bologna's historic center has an active ZTL restricted traffic zone with cameras, and fines for unauthorized entry are common for visitors who don't check first — confirm your hotel's access code or park outside the zone entirely. The A1 autostrada connecting Bologna to Florence and Milan gets busy on weekends and holiday periods, so factor that into timing.
