Let's wander through the city's enchanting "carrugi"—narrow alleys that always guide you back to the shimmering sea. Daring to get lost in Genoa is one of the most delightful experiences a curious visitor with some time on their hands can have, because you can never truly lose your way here—not least due to the fact that, amid ups & downs, elevators, funiculars, hills & narrow alleys, you always end up at the sea! A sea born to be challenged, explored & conquered, which made it Italy's formidable Maritime Republic. From the Old Port, we'll set off to discover “La Superba” among charming little squares, intimate churches, multiple cathedrals, medieval decorations, gilded stuccoes, trompe-l’oeil frescoes slate & marble portals. We'll be sure to ascend to "Castelletto" by lift; which as the poet Giorgio Caproni described it, feels like reaching Paradise. And we won’t miss the chance to sample something typical—a piece of focaccia or pandolce, or for the more indulgent, a gelato with a hint of panera flavour!
-We'll begin in Genoa’s old town, where each turn reveals a new facet of the city, with the waterfront as our guide as we wander through the narrow carrugi that always lead us back to the sea. -Next, we'll set off from the Old Port to discover “La Superba” through hidden piazzas, quiet chapels, and magnificent cathedrals. -We'll continue admiring medieval and baroque details around us—stone portals, illusionist frescoes, and rich stuccoes in slate and marble. -We'll then take the lift to Castelletto for stunning panoramic views, echoing Caproni’s poetic words. -We'll proceed to treat ourselves to local specialties: focaccia, pandolce, or panera-flavored gelato. -Before finishing, we'll make sure to visit iconic spots like Piazza San Mat-teo and Piazza Banchi. I can customize this tour to match your preferences & interests, ensuring a unique & memorable experience.
