I'm Francesca A., your private tour guide in Genoa

Guide #4699

Hi everybody! My name is Francesca and I live in Genoa (Genova in Italian!), where I was born. I have a degree in Geology and licenses as a city guide and hiking guide. I worked for an oilfield company for few years long time ago, but I am working as a guide already since 30 years and collaborate with TBL since more than 10 years! I am always enthusiastic to meet new people and to involve them in the knowledge of my native region, Liguria. I like meeting new guests, walking with them, telling them about the nature and the history. . . cooking with them!! I am specialized in Genoa, but also in the Italian Riviera (Portofino, Camogli, Monterosso and many hidden little towns!)... Do you like to discover more about you ancestors in Liguria? Let me know, we can plan a research with a genealogist! Do you like to learn about the real ingredients for authentic local recipes, like pesto or focaccia genovese? We can go together to the market! Do you like to visit a private palace with incredible painted ceilings and great facilities?...why not? We can easily plan a customized tour: I am a certified, but I am not a driver, so I can arrange a vehicle if required or a cooking class or a tasting! Francesca

    We can't say enough great things about Francesca! From the very beginning she was incredibly flexible. Francesca is outgoing, upbeat and we connected with her immediately. The weather was extremely warm, so she modified our tour to include exactly what we wanted with the assistance of a driver. The highlight of our Genoa tour was the restaurant she choose for lunch...

    Great trip to Portofino and Santa Maria. We have a great time around the area. They found a wonderful local restaurant for us to have lunch at as well. It was great!

    Francesca made Genoa very special with her knowledge and warm personality. She included specialty food shops that would have been impossible to find on your own. She also kept the pace exactly how we wanted it. I would highly recommend her.
