Porto Fino Tour

Published on Nov, 2024

We had a lovely day with Francesca. This is great way to learn about Porto Fino first and then have the the afternoon to explore on your own.

Portofino walking tour & pesto making

Published on Oct, 2024

I highly recommend this tour. Nicolletta the guide was great. Very interesting guided walk around Portofino. The pesto making was great fun. The lunch was very nice.

Informative and beautiful

Published on Aug, 2024

A very beautiful and informative tour with the amazing Nicoletta! A good amount of walking through lesser populated alleyways. It was great having a table already reserved at the restaurant, by doing the tour. Thank you Nicoletta!

Sightseeing and a good lunch

Published on Aug, 2024

The town of Portofino and the pesto cooking and lunch. our guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the town and important sites.

Wonderful!

Published on Aug, 2024

Our guide Christina communicated with us before we met, she was exactly where she said she would be and we departed onto the ferry swiftly. Even skipping the queue which was not meant to happen! Christina has wonderful knowledge of the host of Santa Margherita and Portifino. The walking tour was lovely, the focaccia we eat was the best I have ever had, so mich so that we went back a day later and bought more. It was so much fun watching my daughter pound the pesto on the waterfront in Portifino. Thanks Christina for a wonderful and memorable experience
