Our family had a great time. The boat ride had fantastic views. Arrived in a picturesque Portofino with plenty of time to eat lunch, walk around and grab a gelato for the boat ride back.

Meeting point

Current Italian legislation requires passengers (even if they already have an electronic ticket) must go to the ticket office to collect a paper ticket and a receipt. For this reason, we ask you to show up at check-in 30 minutes in advance, at the ticket office at the beginning of Ponte Spinola (the blue ticket office in front of the Aquarium entrance).
