    The staff were absolutely friendly and helpful. Unfortunately we couldn't take the red line as there were hardly any buses on the road (at least we never saw one, only for the blue route)

    Although we paid the full price, the red line bus did not go to the lighthouse. We also had to wait 45 minutes for the bus

    Convenient to book.good way to see the city.Liked that they stopped at specific locations allowing riders the time to take pictures. One of the stops was at the train station which was near our hotel so that was convenient. Unfortunately for us the time we chose to use the bus, it started to rain shortly there after.Uncontrolable and prevented us for taking the second route of the trip.Would recommend it to others!

    In addition to the above reasons (I have had to change seats to find an audio guide which was working properly) I think that the maintenance of the bus should be improved (cleanliness .... visibility through the windows...).

  • A maritime city with a glorious past, Genoa brims with the spirit of constant arrivals and departures. Characterized by its medieval streets, palm-lined waterfront plazas stacked up a steep hill, and Renaissance palazzi marked by wartime damage, Genoa is a product of its history. A hop-on-hop-off bus tour gives you easy access to important and cultural sections of the city, plus it saves up considerably on time and money. All you need to do is hop on at any one of the stops, and hop off when something catches your eye. Explore the urban complex of Via Garibaldi, loaded with palaces, or experience tranquil pleasures at Boccadasse, a tiny fishing village within the city limits. Marvel at the San Lorenzo Cathedral featuring aspects of both Romanesque and Gothic and enjoy catches like the Hummingbird Forest, the Biosphere, the Galata Maritime Museum, and a panoramic lift that shoots up to 131 feet above sea level.
