      A fun and enlightening tour.
      Roslyn_M, May 2024
      This 2hour historical tour of Genoa was worth brilliant. We were taken to places we’d probably never have seen, if by ourselves. We were also given marvellous insights into the amazing history, culture and character of this fabulous city - thanks to Lupe, our extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. We thought the tour was money well spent.
      Genoa in a Rickshaw
      Pamela_R, May 2024
      The rickshaw was a fun. way to see the narrow streets and maneuver around the. crowds. We covered many areas of Genoa and our guide was fun and informative.
      Excellent Choicd
      James_T, May 2024
      Perfect tour of Genoa. Guide Lupe was excellent and informative. Couldn’t have booked anything more enjoyable in Genoa as this takes you on tour with back streets and places you won’t see by car or bus.
      Great Genoa Tour
      Carolyn_B, Apr 2024
      Annalisa was an excellent tour guide and she was able to get us to many memorable sites. I think this is the best way to see Genoa in a short amount of time and without doing a lot of walking.
      Cancelled!
      Christina_R, Apr 2024
      You cancelled two bookings in a row. Very disappointing. I have nothing more to add since the rides were cancelled by you.
      Seeing the Sights by Rickshaw!
      Walton_T, Apr 2024
      We thoroughly enjoyed seeing the highlights of Genoa via a rickshaw! This was such a unique touring experience for us which only added to our enjoyment! Our guide, Fran, was so friendly and very informative about the places we visited. Couldn't have asked for a better guide or itinerary!!
      Great way to explore the city
      Betsy_P, Apr 2024
      Great way to explore the city. Fernanda, our guide, was fantastic. Informative, professional and very agreeable. This is the way to do it
      Best port excursion
      David_H, Apr 2024
      This turned out to be our favorite port excursion of our Princess Cruise stops. Our tour guide and rickshaw operator Lupe was wonderful!! Many of our other tours were focused on safely walking on the streets and less time being able to look at the architecture and take in the history and culture. Lupe made Genoa Italy come alive with her information and stories. We hope the owners of the rickshaw service can appreciate the treasure they have in Lupe as their valued employee.
      Fun and interesting!
      Roselyne_G, Mar 2024
      We had a great time with Renato who gave us a wonderful tour of Genoa full of interesting details about its history. Highly recommend this tour. If you are not rushed, they will drop you off in the center so that you can explore on your own afterwards.
      5 stars!
      FrankTierney_K, Feb 2024

      Superb tour!
      David_P, Jan 2024
      The rickshaw and tour guide Samuel was not only courteous but extremely knowledgable about Genoese history. Even with out 7 month old he went out of his way to tailor our experience and ensure we were comfortable. If you are into history and culture I highly recommend this tour.
      FANTASTIC FUN TOUR!!
      SONIA_R, Nov 2023
      Gavino our driver was absolutely awesome! Great English too! We had the very BEST experience, way beyond our expectations! We toured all thru the old historical area, ate focaccia, had excellent coffee, bought street art, while hearing his super informative explanation of the city’s history, culture and joys! - Great tour, Great job, Gavino!!!

      Kogie_M, Nov 2023
      Davinci, (i hope i spell it right) was so good. He take us to all places, going into small streets where you can't do it with hop on bus tour and he explained well. He even stop at markets for us to do shopping. Highly recommend and it was fun riding in rickshaw.
      Excellent tour
      Julie_L, Nov 2023
      Our guide, Samuel was amazing! He really made our tour enjoyable with all the knowledge he had. I would highly recommend it!
      One of the BEST tours ever. And I have done many
      PATRICIA_Z, Nov 2023
      Our guide was perfect in his English, covered history, geography, stories of Genoa..... We visited the port area, as well as the old sections ---many old churches with wonders of history in those walls. The newer areas were also interesting, and he was able to combine their history, architecture,old use, and now modern usage..... I would love to return to this fine city, and stay longer the next time. Thank you for the excellence of this tour.....Patricia Zelkowitz
      Fantastic Tour

      Erica was wonderful. She was knowledgeable and made sure I didn’t miss anything. Since I was traveling alone she made sure to take a photo of me with the fountain. Thank you Erika for making my short visit to Genoa so memorable.
