Tour information

Sail aboard our boat and prepare to sail into the Gulf of Poets, a wide and deep inlet of the Ligurian Sea that has enchanted poets and writers since the 19th century. Our cruise will take you to discover the picturesque seaside villages that dot the gulf. We will visit Fezzano, with its pastel-coloured houses overlooking the sea, Cadimare, renowned for its shipyards, and Le Grazie, a fishing village with an enchanting view of the gulf. We will continue towards Porto Venere, an ancient fishing village perched on a promontory and dominated by the Church of San Pietro. In front of Porto Venere we will admire the three islands Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto, an archipelago of rare beauty that is part of the UNESCO World Heritage. We then sail to Lerici, a medieval village located at the eastern end of the gulf. Dominated by the Castle of San Giorgio, Lerici offers evocative views and an enchanting atmosphere. After visiting the small village and discovering its wonders, you will be able to stop for lunch in the main square, Piazza Garibaldi, in a typical Ligurian restaurant. After lunch, you can sit back on board and enjoy the marvellous landscape that unfolds before your eyes: a fascinating succession of caves, deep gorges, hidden coves, forests and picturesque seaside villages nestled between the rocks and the crystal clear sea. In the afternoon, the cruise will continue along the coast, offering breathtaking views. You will admire caves, deep gorges, hidden coves and forests overlooking the crystal clear sea. In some unspoilt coves, you will have the chance to take a refreshing dip and discover the beautiful backdrops of the gulf.

Brillant tour
Amazing trip, great value for money. So handy we jumped on the bus at the port at 10am and they took us straight to Pisa hassle free we got two hour which was plenty of time. Then we also got a stop at the beautiful town of Lerici and we’re back for 4pm. The tour guide Ambra was brillant and spoke English Spanish and Italian. Would highly recommend.
