This great tour will show the essence of Genova, that mean the monumental parts in contrast with the most hidden and mysterious alleys. During the first hour you will discover the Maddalena district, fascinating and made by really little alleys and narrow streets; during the second one the driver will bring you to know also the other half of the historical center, placed on the other side of San Lorenzo Street : The itinerary will include the visit to Porta Soprana, Via Ravecca , Piazza Sarzano, Luzzati Gardens, Stradone Sant'Agostino, Via san Bernardo and culminate with the arrival in the beautiful and inaccessible church of Santi Cosma e Damiano, protectors of surgeons and barbers.

Petrarca has called Genoa "La Superba", we are sure that after the tour you will do it too!

We had two great guides who were very knowledgeable about the history of Genoa. They took us through the busy city, quiet harbor, and the small alleyways. We stopped in beautiful churches and learned about each neighborhood along the way. Two hours was perfect and well worth it.
