Tours in Liguria

Unforgettable Walks Between Sea and Mountains

On the Verde Azzurro Trail, Embracing the Ligurian Sea

Join me on tours that begin just steps away from the charming towns of Liguria’s eastern coast, with its hills overlooking the blue sea. Immerse yourself in the fragrances and colours of a landscape that changes beautifully with each season. Every time of year has its unique wonders: the lush blooms of spring and summer, the warm tones of autumn, and the quiet stillness of winter.

Walking silently through ancient olive groves, breathing in the scents of aromatic herbs along the way, is pure wellness for the body and soul. This is the magic of Liguria – a memory that will stay with you forever.

Exploring Liguria’s Coastline: Nature, History and Flavours

Be amazed by the stunning cliffside paths along the pristine Portofino promontory, such as the trail from the charming village of Camogli to the enchanting San Fruttuoso Bay, with its abbey by the sea. Or, if you prefer, enjoy a peaceful walk through the woods, where ancient trees and plants from centuries past still stand. Discover the beauty of the Natural Parks just a few miles from both Genoa and La Spezia.

Together, we’ll walk through overlooked paths like the Via dell’Ardesia (Slate Trails) and explore hidden corners of Liguria’s small villages, where ancient buildings and stones still whisper stories of the past.

On request, I can arrange visits and tastings with local producers: Liguria is rich in distinct flavours and exceptional small-scale products. From fine wines and extra virgin olive oil to the famous fresh pesto, each taste tells a story of Liguria.

We’ll be able to visit local artisans and hear the stories of those who are passionate about preserving the region’s traditions. Let’s explore the crafts that have shaped Liguria’s history and continue to be passed down through skilled hands.

Discover Liguria’s Eastern Coast

Follow some of the most beautiful scenic routes in Liguria, and uncover its most authentic side. Whether for just a few hours or a full day, each hike is a deep dive into breathtaking landscapes and cultural heritage.

Walking at a relaxed pace, we’ll immerse ourselves gently into nature as respectful and curious guests. We’ll enjoy the rejuvenating power of being outdoors, taking precious time to recharge, away from the city’s hustle and bustle.

Here are some tour ideas:
