Begin your journey at the cruise terminal in La Spezia and board a public ferry to Portovenere.
Admire the Gulf of Poets from the water as you make your way to the ancient port dedicated to the goddess Venus.

Upon arrival, taste authentic Genovese pesto in the heart of the carruggio, a narrow alley filled with the scents of Liguria. Enjoy some free time to explore the colourful medieval village at your own pace.

Next, embark on a boat tour of the three islands: Palmaria, Tino, and Tinetto. Learn about the history and natural beauty of the area from your guide as you pass by caves, lighthouses, and hermitages.

Finally, take a guided tour of the village, including a visit to the Church of San Pietro on the promontory and a stroll through the carruggi. Immerse yourself in the nature, history, and authentic flavours of Liguria before returning to the cruise terminal.
