Your Destination —
Liguria in Northwestern Italy is a thin, precipitous coastal strip famous for its food (pesto and focaccia), swanky resorts, and the former independent trading empire of Genoa. Here you will find a proud sense of culture and history originating in its connections to the House of Savoy. Liguria is known for its impressive mountains and lovely rolling hills, coloured by green Mediterranean turf and overlooking the sea.
Sestri Levante is an enchanting narrow stretch of land dotted with small fishing boats, tranquil shores, moody bars, and family-run eateries. It is no wonder that a place with such astonishing natural beauty has inspired the imaginations of famed literary juggernauts such as Hans Christian Andersen and Lord Byron. In fact, an 1821 poem by Lord Byron himself described Sestri Levante's Bay of Silence as 'paradise on earth'.
This is the perfect base from which to discover the most beautiful sights of the Italian Riviera. There is also the historical and post-card town of Portofino. This fashionable centre is set upon by the turquoise sea and its colourful buildings perched atop a rocky cliff make a truly incredible sight to behold. The magnificently beautiful Rapallo, in the center of the Gulf of Tigullio, is a short drive away and the famous and quaint Cinque Terre can be reached in under an hour.
