Description

Discover the most important sites Genoa on a private guided tour of the city: admire its medieval buildings, 16th-century palaces and charming squares while learning all there is to know about the history of this picturesque city. In the course of the experience, your guide will make sure you see the large seaport as well as all the amazing architecture of one of Italy's major economic centers and that you take in all the charm and heritage of the city’s UNESCO-listed medieval center. Your tour will start from the renovated harbor and will continue on through the tangled labyrinth of medieval alleys up to the stunning St. Lawrence Cathedral. You'll then head to Piazza de Ferrari; you’ll find the Opera House, the Palace of the Doges and the Academy of Fine Arts, passing by Piazza San Matteo before the experience ends in Via Garibaldi. You're sure to take some amazing pictures of the splendid historical buildings and palaces from the "Golden Era" of the ancient Republic of Genova.

Our tour guide was...

Our tour guide was exceptional, very knowledgeable about the history of Genoa and the historical area. Since we had a food tour later in the afternoon, we didn't taste any foods but were shown beautiful shops and marveled in the rich history of Genoa. It was a wonderful morning and she even recommended the "Three Crows" for lunch which was delicious. Coleen Scherf-Ghara
