Overview

  • Enjoy a day trip along the Ligurian Coast, visiting the unique village of Portofino and the charming centre of Santa Margherita Ligure.

    Whether you arrive by ship or are staying at a hotel, a local driver will pick you up, and together, you'll take the scenic route to beautiful Portofino, one of Italy’s most exclusive destinations.

    Explore the quaint harbour and La Piazzetta (the main square) with its colourful buildings. Take the winding road uphill to reach San George’s church or Castle Brown, which offer the best views of the stunning cliff that shapes the coast. Stop for lunch and relax before heading to Santa Margherita Ligure. Stroll along the ancient fishermen’s port, where traditional houses coexist with luxurious modern hotels.

    After some free time to explore the streets of “Santa,” as the locals call it, your driver will take you back to the Genoa port or hotel.
