An amazing walking tour in Genoa with a local aperitif included.
Italy's largest sea port is indefatigably contradictory, full at once of grandeur, squalor, sparkling light and deep shade. But a gateway to the Riviera for many travellers today, a weighty architectural heritage speaks of its former glory.
Understanding the development of the powerful Maritime Republic through the marks left by Columbus. From his parent's house and the district where he lived his adolescence to the Renaissance Palace, now museum, which exhibits his letters, passing through the old town, the cradle of its formation as the greatest sailor of all time.
The tour ends with a gorgeous Genoese aperitif (Focaccia and a glass of a local white wine) on a scenic and panoramic terrace overlooking the old town.
