10 Sightseeing Tours in Porto Venere That You Shouldn't Miss

June 30, 2021 Sheron Bogner

This UNESCO World Heritage Site was a favorite of Byron, Shelley and D.H. Lawrence. (In fact, if you don’t mind a few rocks, you can swim at one of Byron’s favorite spots, now dubbed Byron’s Cove.) Portovenere’s San Pietro Church was built on the remains of a 6th-century church, which was itself built atop an ancient Roman temple to Venus. Relax and enjoy the boats bobbing in lines on the pretty bay, or daytrip to the Cinqueterre.

Super responsive, caring, thoughtful service that I worked with on my most recent Italian vacation. From the first email to the last drop off, they were simply the best. A pick up at the very hard to navigate Florence train station--flawlessly executed. An amazing restaurant recommendation on the trip from Florence to Lucca. Courteous, professional, communicative from Florence to Lucca, to La Spezia, to Lucca, to Pisa. Wonderful!

This was by far the best experience we had. Maria and Nicolas were absolutely amazing, we felt at home and not only were they really knowledgeable about all the history of the conque Terre, they also—and even after we left the boat tour—gave us the best recommendations for our stay in the Cinque Terre. I really highly recommend them, they are the absolute best!!!
