Portofino: Bus Tour from Genoa

About this experience

Portofino Bus Tour from Genoa This ticket secures your place on a guided open-top sightseeing bus that travels from Genoa along the Ligurian coast to Portofino, one of Italy's most photographed fishing villages. Your English-speaking guide leads the journey, sharing local insights about the region's culture and traditions as the route passes the coastal scenery of Camogli, Santa Margherita Ligure and Rapallo on the way to this picture-perfect harbour town. Once in Portofino, you have three full hours to explore at your own pace. Wander the colourful waterfront lined with pastel houses, browse local boutiques, or sample fresh seafood at harbourside restaurants. For the best views, climb up to Castello Brown for panoramic vistas over the bay. Your return ticket also includes hop-on hop-off access to explore more of Genoa's historic centre for the rest of the day.
