What to Expect

For a more memorable experience, we offer a private vehicle with English-speaking driver. Your driver will be waiting for you at the Portofino pier, where your cruise shuttle docks, holding a sign with your name on it.

Your day unfolds as a scenic journey along the Ligurian coast, with relaxed stops in some of the most charming seaside towns of the region.

Your first stop is Camogli, a picturesque fishing village known for its tall, colorful houses and authentic atmosphere. As you arrive, the vibrant facades lead you toward the seafront promenade, where the Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta stands facing the sea.

From the Camogli harbor, you can take a short uphill walk toward Castel Dragone, perched above the cliffs and offering beautiful views over the coastline.

The village is compact and easy to explore, with narrow alleys, small shops, and quiet corners that reflect everyday Ligurian life. You may choose to take a walk, browse local boutiques, or simply enjoy a moment by the sea.

You will then continue along the coast toward Santa Margherita Ligure, where the atmosphere becomes more elegant and refined.

Here, pastel-colored buildings line the waterfront, and the promenade opens toward a series of marinas filled with boats gently moving with the tide. As you walk along the seafront, you will pass cafés, boutiques, and shaded palm-lined paths, with views stretching across the bay.

There is a sense of effortless sophistication — the kind of place where time slows down, inviting you to pause for a coffee, an aperitif, or simply to sit by the water and take in the scenery.

The experience continues to Rapallo, a lively coastal town where local life and seaside charm come together.

Here, the rhythm changes slightly — more vibrant, more lived-in, yet equally captivating. Along the seaside promenade, the view opens over the water, with fishing boats, small harbors, and the historic castle standing just offshore.

You may choose to wander through the historic center, where narrow streets lead to small squares, local shops, and everyday scenes of Ligurian life, or simply enjoy a relaxed walk by the sea.

Rapallo offers a more authentic glimpse into the coast — less polished, more real, and full of character.

Throughout the day, your driver will manage the timing and transfers, allowing you to move comfortably between destinations and enjoy each stop at your own pace.

At times, it is simply about the journey — the changing light on the water, the curves of the coastline, and the quiet moments between one village and the next.

At the end of your experience, relax on the drive back to Portofino, arriving at your ship with plenty of time and unforgettable memories of the Ligurian coast, its colorful villages, and the relaxed rhythm of life by the sea.
