Genova off the Map: Street Life & Local Soul

Ciao! I’m Chiara, a professional licensed Tour Leader with over a decade of experience sharing the wonders of Liguria—especially my home city of Genoa—with travelers from all over the world. My tours focus on what I love most: authentic, local experiences that go far beyond museums and monuments. I specialize in customized private tours, from Genoa’s curiosities and culinary highlights to the scenic gems of Portofino, Santa Margherita, Camogli and Cinque Terre. I also create one-of-a-kind food-focused experiences like pesto-making classes (and others), olive oil tastings, and roots tourism journeys that help visitors connect with their family heritage in Italy. I have worked extensively with both groups and private tours, always with an emphasis on quality, flexibility, and a personal touch. I collaborate with trusted local drivers and partners to offer private transportation, ensuring a comfortable and seamless experience from start to finish. I believe every traveler is different—and every tour should be too. That’s why I try to avoid cookie-cutter itineraries and instead take pride in crafting truly tailored experiences that reflect your interests, whether that’s food, landscape, or family history. While I don’t focus on churches or traditional art tours, I’m passionate about offering something different: meaningful, memorable days built around real connection, great storytelling, and the joy of exploring Liguria like a local. Let’s design your perfect day. I can’t wait to show you what makes this region so special!
