The Ligurian coast at its most enchanting, a week of pastel villages, wooded headlands and clear blue water between Genoa and the Cinque Terre. This route gathers the Riviera di Levante’s finest, legendary Portofino, the five clifftop villages and the Gulf of Poets, most of it blissfully free of crowds. Expect rainbow-coloured harbours and hidden abbeys, vineyard terraces above the sea and long swims off quiet beaches, glamour and simplicity side by side.
Every route we shape is a starting point, not a fixed schedule. Stay a second day where the light is right, move with the weather, or follow a captain to a quieter cove. What follows is one considered way to read it; the rest we tailor to you.
