This trip begins and ends Bologna, Italy.
ARRIVAL:
This trip begins in Bologna and ends at the airport or train station located in Bologna. The closest International Airport to Bologna is Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (Airport code: BLQ) and the main train station is Bologna Centrale.
A drive from the airport to our hotel will take between {20 - 40} minutes, depending on traffic and the train station is about 15-25 minutes depending on traffic.
Note: It is easy to get a taxi from the train station or the airport to the hotel. Make sure you go get in line for an official taxi, and don’t accept offers from people proactively asking if you need a ride even if they say they have a taxi. Taxis are required to accept credit cards but some may give you a hard time, double check before getting into the taxi. A taxi from between the airport and our hotel should be between 20-30 Euro.
You can check into the Hotel Porta San Mamolo anytime after 2:00pm on Wednesday, October 1, 2025. If you arrive earlier than 2:00pm, you can drop off your luggage at the front desk and they will store it for you until your room is ready. All hotel rooms have been preassigned using the name you provided on your Booking and Registration form.
DEPARTURE:
On the morning of Wednesday, October 8, 2025, we will leave the town of Albinea and make a drop off at the Bologna Airport and at Bologna Centrale train station. From Albinea, we are about 1 hour and 40 minutes from the airport. We will determine our time of departure based on the best time for the group. This means it’s important for you to fill out the Arrival and Departure form so we can build an appropriate schedule as soon as possible. Once we have everyone’s departure time, we will send out the schedule of when we’ll leave Albinea.
Albinea is a small town close to Reggio Emilia which has its own train station. If it fits better in your schedule, you are welcome to take a taxi to the Reggio Emilia train station and depart from there on your own. The train in Reggio Emilia goes to many stations/cities around Italy though the fastest trains depart from Bologna. The train from Reggio Emilia to Bologna takes about 30 minutes.
Note: If you need to fly out very early or very late you can arrange your own transportation. We are happy to share recommended companies to use, just let us know in advance.
