Genoa is the largest European port, so you will definitely walk along the picturesque bay with little ships. But I will show you other virtues of the city! You will see the main cathedral of San Lorenzo and medieval gates, stroll through narrow streets and try traditional focaccia. Moreover, I will definitely suggest where to go, where to eat, and what else to see to forever fall in love with the city on the Ligurian Sea.
What to expect
Feel the spirit of the port city
The tour of the capital of Liguria will begin in the old port: it is in this ancient bay that the history of the powerful maritime power began. You will walk along the little ships swaying on the waves of the Ligurian Sea. You will learn the most interesting facts from the history of Genoa and reach the house of Christopher Columbus - an outstanding Genoese. You can try the most delicious Italian gelato and local fast food - cones with seafood in batter!
See the main attractions
Narrow streets will lead you to the Palazzo San Giorgio, where the world's first bank is located. In addition, the route will pass through Piazza de Ferrari and Via Garibaldi street, which amazes with its palaces and museums. And of course, you will see the powerful walls of the medieval Porta Soprana gates and San Lorenzo Cathedral and walk to the new port.
Notes on Genoa
I will definitely share curious facts about the city and local culture. You will learn why the flag of Great Britain has true Genoese roots, why pesto sauce is called that way, and what rumors are circulating about the Genoese throughout Italy. And I will also talk about traditional cuisine, and we will definitely try the best focaccia in the city - a traditional flatbread that is prepared only in Liguria!
Additional option
The tour can be extended by combining it with the Non-Touristic Genoa excursion and visiting the Boccadasse and Nervi districts.
