What people are saying about Genoa

I would absolutely recommend this as a way to see Genoa. The Segways are great fun and an amazing alternative to a walking tour as it’s a pedestrianised area. We had Matt as our guide who was absolutely brilliant! Hilarious, knowledgable and so interesting. Could not have had a better day, thank you!

The guide is very knowledgeable and conveys his enthusiasm and love for his city. For my first time in Genoa it was an excellent idea to take advantage of the guided tour to be able to enjoy the city more.

Samantha was great, her love for Genova helped us fall in love with it as well. And so so much great food, we could not eat it all.

Very good and competent guide. He made us discover the city like we never could have done on our own. To do absolutely

It is a ferry in stages, rather than a tour, but it is very nice to do in the day.
