What to expect

  1. Portofino
    Pass by
    Famous worldwide for its pastel-coloured houses and exclusive harbour, Portofino is a picture of Italian sophistication. Once a humble Roman fishing village known as Portus Delfini (named for the dolphins that swam in its bay), it has evolved into a playground for the rich and famous. Today, its scenic waterfront buzzes with designer boutiques, stylish cafés, and inviting terraces—perfect for soaking up the sunshine and people-watching in true Riviera style.
  2. Santa Margherita Ligure
    Pass by
    Just along the coast lies Santa Margherita, a seaside gem filled with old-world charm. Stroll past elegant villas, colourful promenades, and historic landmarks like the 16th-century Abbey of Cervara, once protected by watchtowers against pirate raids. The magnificent Villa Durazzo, with its lavish frescoes, mosaic floors, and lush gardens, offers a glimpse into the grandeur of 17th-century aristocratic life.
  3. Camogli
    Pass by
    End your tour in Camogli, a vibrant fishing village whose name means “houses of the wives”—a nod to the women who kept the town running while their husbands were at sea. With its tall, colourful houses lining the waterfront, Camogli exudes charm and character. Savour the aroma of fresh pesto, feel the warmth of the sun, and take in the relaxed coastal atmosphere that has drawn visitors for generations.
