Genova, a history among sea, narrow streets and “crose”.

This is the beginning of a very beautiful song by Ivano Fossati, which stresses that the best view of the “Superba” (Genova) can be enjoyed in its entireness only from the sea.

Portofino: what to do and to see

Discover the magical atmosphere of a visit to Portofino, ancient fishermen village and now elegant place for the international jet-set.

The Golfo dei Poeti (Gulf of the Poets): routes
