The basilica is located in an extremely panoramic position, on top of the Colle della Guardia, and with its rosy colour it stands out amidst the green of the surrounding woods. You will fly around to enjoy the view of the sanctuary from every perspective.
You will then continue towards the centre of Bologna to admire an incredible aerial view of the entire city. The activity lasts 1 hour in total, of which about 40/50 minutes of actual flight time, with return to the starting point.
