Half-day Genoa to Portofino by boat with coastal views, quick time to wander and gelato, then return to Genoa by ferry.
“It was lovely to be out on the beautiful Ligurian Sea. An hour or so was plenty in Portofino, as we are not interested in shops. A wonderful day and good value!”
Whale and dolphin watching cruise from Genoa Porto Antico, 4 hours with a biologist guide in the Pelagos Sanctuary.
“it was amazing and thank you for this trip. It was all well organized and people must be stupid NOT booking this. The people, I guess biologists were very well informed and could answer all my questions and explained exerything very well in English and Italian. Toilets onboard was fine also the possibility of buying drinks onboard. Once again it was amazing and I can recommend this for all the people including kids.”
Genoa cetacean cruise in the Pelagos Sanctuary with a marine biologist, chasing fin and sperm whales and dolphins for 4.5 hours.
“Wir haben viele größere Delfin Gruppen gesehen. Insgesamt ca 100 Stück. Auch verschiedene rassen. Sogar einen pottwal konnten wir kurz sehen. Leider war er grad am abtauchen und wir noch recht weit weg von ihm. Snacks und Getränke gibt's gegen Gebühr an Bord. Toilette vorhanden. Innen und außen Sitzplätze vorhanden. 4,5 Stunden sich allerdings recht lang”
Genoa Old Town in 2 hours with a bilingual guide, Rolli palaces, San Matteo Square, San Lorenzo Cathedral, plus museum entry for Strada Nuova. From $16.
“Barbara our guide was very informative and showed us an interesting part of Genoa adding personal information ie. where to go for the best chocolate or ice cream along the way. Her dual ability to speak in English and Italian was excellent and she was very helpful suggesting other points of interest that we might like to visit during our stay. The trip exceeded the 2 hours so we felt that it was worth every euro spent. Thankyou”
A 5-hour boat ride from Genoa to Portofino with 2 hours on your own for photos, shopping, and Castello Brown views.
“The boat trip was so good. The weather wasn’t brilliant on the way there, but when we got there it was incredible and on the way back. We had around an hour and 15 minutes to explore Portofino, which for me was the perfect amount because it’s only small. However if you’re wanting to sit and eat in a restaurant during your visit then you may not have enough time. Overall really good value for money and so beautiful to see the sights from the boat!”
Guided 2.5-hour visit to Genoa’s UNESCO Rolli Palaces, including Palazzo Rosso, Golden Room, hidden frescoes, and Imperiale stairs.
“Well organised, the guide told us interesting facts and we got to see amazing works of art.”

A 1.5-hour sensory museum ticket in Genoa with five interactive rooms for smell, sound, taste, touch, and mind-bending optical illusions.
“Abbiamo visitato la Città dei Bambini e dei Ragazzi il 6 gennaio, con due bambini di 7 e 8 anni. Nel complesso è stata un’esperienza piacevole e ci siamo divertiti insieme ai bimbi. Le aree sensoriali sono carine e ben pensate, stimolanti e adatte a coinvolgere i bambini. Abbiamo partecipato anche a un laboratorio sull’udito, molto carino e interattivo, che ha permesso ai bambini di apprendere concetti nuovi divertendosi. Ho apprezzato il fatto che venisse annunciata regolarmente la partenza dei laboratori, segno di una buona organizzazione. Molto bella anche la zona costruzioni, forse però un po’ “off” per l’età dei miei figli: l’ho trovata più adatta a bambini leggermente più…”

“we enjoyed the trip with Matt he is passionate about showing his guest around the city”
Combine Genoa Aquarium and Casa di Colombo in one timed ticket, see dolphins and sharks, then step into Columbus childhood home.
“Tutto molto interessante, l'Acquario è stupendo..unica pecca l'orario perché non sono flessibili, avevamo casa di Cristoforo colombo alle ore 9, ma siamo arrivati un po' dopo per via dei mezzi di trasporto, ma non ci sono stati problemi lí, per l'acquario invece ogni prenotazione ha un suo orario preciso, ci hanno fatto la gentilezza di segnare errore nella prenotazione per farci entrare lo stesso anche se ad un orario diverso, per fortuna. ma c'era il rischio che saltasse il tutto.”
One ticket for Genoa’s top family stops, the Aquarium of Genoa and the City of Children and Youth, with five-senses fun.
“adatta a famiglie, non vi è molto posto per poter mangiare all'interno della struttura dell'acquario, specie se piove, ma ci siamo trovati un tavolo ed abbiamo preso qualcosa dal menu. la cotta dei bambini è il paradiso dei bambini”

Every kind of day out in the country, and the best of each.
