Description

Join a full day private tour from Milan with a professional driver in a luxury car. This 13-hour private day trip of Italian Riviera will introduce to you the picturesque Liguria, with its culturally rich capital Genoa and breathtaking towns of Portofino & Santa Margherita Ligure. Enjoy a private 3-hour guided tour in Genoa, the capital of the region. The tour starts in Milan, where our private professionally licensed English-speaking driver in a suit will meet you in your hotel. You will start your journey in a new luxury Mercedes Car (with air conditioning and Wi-Fi) to reach Genoa. Arriving in Genoa, you will start a 3-hour private tour with our professional guide to learn more about the history of Genoa. Historically, Genoa has always been one of the most important hubs in the Mediterranean area and it is still the busiest port in Italy. Being an important marine gate to connect Europe with the rest of the world, Genoa was one of the richest towns in Europe. Its center boulevard (Le Strade Nuove) is a collection of marvelous richly decorated villas, recognized as a World Heritage List (UNESCO) in 2006. Genoa is the birthplace of many important scholars and explorers of the world with Christopher Colombus undoubtedly the most famous one. Walking along the city center, our professional guide will provide you with interesting facts about the city such as its glorious economic development in the 10th century and how it started to lose its position to rival port towns around Europe. Genoa is also famous for its focaccia genovese and traditional pasta with basil paste (''pesto alla genovese''). You can enjoy a traditional lunch in an authentic local restaurant that we will reserve in advance. Leaving Genoa, you will head to the two famous seaside colorful towns of the region: Santa Margherita and Portofino. After World War II, Santa Margherita became a famous resort town in Italy, thanks to its beautiful, charming and colorful houses along the sea. To enjoy the panoramic view of the town, you can climb up to Santa Margherita castle, built uphill with a beautiful villa and curated garden. From Santa Margherita, with a 20-minute drive, you will arrive at the worldwide famous town of Portofino. Portofino is famous for its pastel-colored houses and small cobbled squares overlooking the harbor. Despite its small size, Portofino is a famous vacation location with many high-end boutiques and you will be surprised by the amount of super-yachts docks in this beautiful village. In Portofino, you can follow a walking path that starts from the Central Square to Brown Castle, a 16th-century fortress and museum with panoramic views of the town and the Ligurian Sea. On the way back to Milan from Portofino, you can make a shopping stop at Serravalle, one of the biggest outlets in Italy with stores of most famous fashion brands. After the shopping break, your private driver will accompany you back to your hotel in Milan.
