Genoa Tuk Tuk Tour
At the time of booking, you can choose between the following tuk tuk tuk tour options. Both options include tuk-tuk transportation and English-speaking driver. Below, we tell you the particularities of each option:
Tuk-tuk tour of the historic center (1 hour)
At the time of your choice, we'll meet in front of the Galata Museum of the Sea to board a tuk-tuk that will take us to discover the historic center of Genoa. Off we go!
We'll tour the port area of Genoa and enter the Maddalena district to explore Via Garibaldi, one of the most important streets of the city. Here, we'll see some of the most famous palaces of Genoese nobility, most of which were built between the 16th and 18th centuries.
During the tour, your driver will serve as your guide, revealing many curiosities about the city and its most emblematic places. Of course, we'll also make several stops for you to take pictures, so keep your cameras handy!
On board the tuk-tuk, you'll also check out the exterior of the famous Cattedrale di San Lorenzo (Genoa Cathedral), the most important temple in the city. Nearby, we'll marvel at some of Genoa's most beautiful squares, including the charming Piazza Banchi and Piazza De Ferrari.
Then, after an hour of sightseeing, we'll return to the starting point and the tour will come to an end.
Tuk tuk tuk tour of the hidden Genoa (2 hours)
At the time you select, we'll start a tour of the hidden side of the city. We'll see all the must-see popular landmarks in Genoa in contrast with the more secret and little-known ones.
During the first hour, we'll ride along the Maddalena, and in the second part of the tour, we'll have the opportunity to get to know the other half of the historical center separated by the nineteenth-century pedestrian street called San Lorenzo.
We'll pass through Porta Soprana, Via Ravecca, Piazza Sarzano and Stradone Sant'Agostino, Via San Bernardo, and we'll end up at the beautiful church of Santi Cosma e Damiano. Why did Petrarch call Genoa La Superba? What stories are hidden in each of these corners? We'll find out!
