Genoa, the birthplace of Christopher Columbus, is a must-visit destination that will leave you enchanted. The city's historic centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a maze of narrow streets, picturesque piazzas, and stunning medieval architecture. The standout attraction is the iconic Lanterna, the oldest lighthouse in the world, which offers breathtaking views of the city and the sea.
The best time to visit Genoa is during the spring and autumn, when the weather is mild and pleasant, making it perfect for exploring the city's many attractions. For first-timers, we recommend purchasing a Genova Card, which grants access to many museums, public transportation, and attractions, making it easy to navigate the city and get the most out of your trip.
