Tour guide in Genoa Loredana C.

Ciao and welcome to Genoa! My name is Loredana, I have been working for a long time as tour manager for tours throughout Europe and in 2004 I became an authorized local guide for Genova and its surroundings. I love my city for so many reasons. . . the history, the character of the people - not all Italians are alike! - the feeling that this is still an authentic place where you have a surprise at every corner. I love the monuments, of course, the beautiful elegant palaces part of the UNESCO heritage since 2006, as well as the ancient shops still proudly run by the same families that opened them maybe 100 or even 200 years ago. You really need to lose yourself in the alleys of the old city, the largest medieval center in Europe. There is always something to discover in "the vertical city" that was once a powerful Republic and is now one of the main ports in the Mediterranean. In the surroundings, in less than 1-hour drive you can reach the Riviera: Santa Margherita Ligure, Portofino, Camogli: in the past fishing villages, today fascinating towns displayed along the coast like gems under the Mediterranean sun. All my tours can be customized according to your preferences. Please do not hesitate to ask! My credentials: - CAE Certificate - Cambridge 1996 - tour manager on European tours since 1996 - licensed local guide in Genoa and surrounding area since 2003 - 3-year experience in local tour operator (back office)
