Choose between private walking tour and walk and ride with private car service options. You will have professional english speaking guide in any case. Step into the storied past of Genoa through its atmospheric medieval old town — the largest in Europe. Wander the labyrinthine “caruggi” alleyways, admire grand Baroque palaces, and hear the tales that shaped this powerful maritime republic. Learn about Genoa’s seafaring legacy, its crucial role in Mediterranean trade, and its fierce rivalries with other maritime powers like Pisa and Venice. Highlights include the impressive San Lorenzo Cathedral, the bustling Porto Antico, and the elegant Via Garibaldi, a UNESCO World Heritage site. With a knowledgeable local guide and a flexible pace, this tour is ideal for history lovers and curious travelers alike. Please keep in mind that evening walking tour that starts at 6.30pm lasts 2 hours and 30 minutes instead of 3 hours due to the closure of some monuments.
