Activity itinerary

Piazza della Vittoria
  • 15m
With its imposing Arch towering in the centre of the wide space, Piazza della Vittoria–named so to celebrate the end of World War I–is one of the hubs of the city centre.
Basilica di Santa Maria Assunta di Carignano
  • 20m
This building is not only a place of worship but also a symbol of the power and devotion of the noble Genoese families of the Renaissance. Religious architecture here reflected both the faith and the social status of its patrons.
La Casa di Colombo
  • 20m
  • Admission ticket not included
There are some “historical dates” that are fixed in my mind since I was in school. Perhaps THE most memorable date is that of October 12, 1492 when Christopher Columbus, the Genoese explorer who first sailed from Europe to the Americas ! We are going to walk close to his place! Ticket cost: 3€
Porta Soprana
  • 10m
The imposing Porta Soprana! Between 1155 and 1158 the Genoese participated en masse in the construction of the walls to defend themselves from attacks by Frederick Barbarossa’s army.
Piazza Raffaele De Ferrari
  • 10m
We have arrived at the nerve centre of Genoa, the hub of city life. De Ferrari Square is the city’s main square, a meeting point and venue for major city events.
Cattedrale di San Lorenzo - Duomo di Genova
  • 20m
It is impossible not to be captivated by the majesty of its black-and-white striped facade, the bell tower towering over the historic centre, and the intricate details that make the building a true architectural masterpiece. This is the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, Genoa’s main church.
Piazza San Matteo
  • 10m
Piazza San Matteo is a well-preserved example of an early medieval aristocratic settlement. With its 14th-century church of the same name and surrounded by palaces with characteristic black and white bands, it represented the power centre of the Doria family, a tangible sign of their influence in medieval Genoa.
Via Giuseppe Garibaldi
  • 15m
Its construction took about 40 years and began thanks to what can be called Europe’s first urban allotment plan, starring one of the richest families in the city, the Grimaldis, who bought the entire area and transformed it into one of the most beautiful and sumptuous areas in Europe.
Spianata Castelletto
  • 30m
Genoa is characterised by narrow streets, and getting a view of the city from above is never easy. That is why this Belvedere will leave you speechless!
La Chiesa di San Siro
  • 20m
Located abutting the inner coves of the Porto Vecchio, the church of San Siro has played a key role in Genoa’s religious life for as many as 17 centuries.
Basilica della Santissima Annunziata del Vastato
  • 20m
The facade is certainly impressive but in my opinion it is the interior that is jaw-dropping: a must-see when you come to Genova!
Porto antico di Genova
  • 30m
Just think: it has been about 2500 years that this port has been used by sailors! How many people, how many stories have passed through here! We have the amazing Aquarium, the Biosphere, An lift that will take you up to 40 metres high and so much more to discover!
