All this money and no way of spending it lol!!

Oh, Ollie, a visit to the Ducati store in Bologna and you'll find plenty of ways to spend your money!

DON'T FORGET TO BOOK THE FACTORY VISIT!!! It's a must at any time, but especially now with thousands of Ducatisti within a riding distance in such a short time. Don't rely on email, give them a call, they speak excellent English. Ollie, you'll need to take a crash course in Italian, so you can take the guided tour with Elena, she normally does the Italian ones, and the very dishy guy (not like me not to get his name & number...) does the English ones.

Guided tours are offered Monday through Friday (for groups of up to 10 visitors) at the following times:

1st tour at 11:00 am
2nd tour at 4:00 pm

Saturday only (for larger groups of up to 40 people):
Continuous tours from 9:30 am until 1:00 pm

Sunday: Closed

Closed also during Easter vacations, summer break (July 29th to August 27th), Christmas vacations (from December 23rd to January 7th), and on all Italian public or bank holidays.

Taking photographs is allowed in the museum but not inside the factory.

Address:
Ducati Motor Holding SpA,
Via Ducati 3,
40132 Bologna, Italy

Entrance is free.

Tours must be booked in advance. Please book your tour at:
Phone (from 10:00 am until 11:00 am and from 14:00 pm until 16:00 pm): +39 051 6413343
Fax: +39 051 6413113
