I'm a travel agent and a tour leader with 2 years of experience: since march 2017 I started to create my own experiential tours of Genoa aiming to make travellers feel the real atmosphere of the city. I like to share my passions such as good food, playing guitar and hiking and I deal with tourists as if they were my guests to convey all my love for the city to them. I love my city cause it's a really charming place with many things to do, there's a lot of history and art, mild climate, beautiful landscapes, there are mountains and of course there's the sea to which I feel pretty much connected. For each of my tours, my goal is to make the traveler be part of the local culture by sharing my interests and passions: I think it's better to learn something through having fun rather than just listening to mere information. This way I can even feel more enthusiasm for my job as I do what I like! Finally, as I want you to have the best experience in Genoa, I'm very flexible and ready to customize my tours according to your needs. I am a licensed tour leader and I licensed travel agent According to my tour leader license I cannot guide you inside museums, churches or archeological sites, although I can give you general information about those sites. I don't have the specific license to drive a vehicle with driver service.

Overview of your Genoa tour

You are in Genoa for one day and want to make the most of your trip? This tour is for you! I have selected the best spots to make you live an unforgettable experience! First of all, you can't miss out on the historical center, characterized by narrow streets and beautiful Noble Palaces: I'll be pleased to tell you interesting stories and anecdotes and I'm sure you'd like to take amazing pictures so I'll take you to the best viewpoint as well! Genoa was an important maritime republic, the city of merchants and sailors and fishermen too! So if you want to feel connected to sea as we do, you should spend some time in Boccadasse, an ancient fishermen's village, which -despite the process of urbanization- hasn't changed much during the centuries and then visit Nervi, where I spent most of my childhood, another must sea area with a picturesque sea promenade and a large park with ancient villas. We will get around in a private car so we will easily cover distances and customize the tour according to your needs!

Alessandro is an amazing guide. He picked us up at the cruise terminal with a nice van and a great driver. He was so knowledgeable about the sites we visited, the culture, the people and the food. He assisted us in ordering food and making sure we knew how to pick the right olive oil. He made sure we saw everything on our itinerary. We really enjoyed Genoa because of his expertise! We would highly recommend.

Alessandro provides us with wonderful introduction to Genova! We discovered the hidden beauty, history and culture of this Italian gem through the eyes of a rightfully proud local. He was both knowledgeable and passionate about his city and made the tour enjoyable and educational. We didn't feel rushed from destination to destination but by the end of the day we're impressed with how many pockets of Genova we had discovered given Alessandro's expert guidance. Thank you Alessandro for a great day in Genova
